[Verse 1]
Bm          G        Bm            G
  Childhood livin',   it's easy to do
Am                   C        G                       D
 The things that you wanted,   well I bought them for you
Bm          G      Bm              G
  Graceless lady,   you know who I am
Am                C         G                      Dsus4  D
 You know I can't let you,   just slide through my hands
 
[Chorus]
Am        C        G                  Dsus4  D
 And wild horses,   couldn't drag me away
Am        C        G                  Dsus4  D
 And wild horses,   couldn't drag me away
 
[Verse 2]
Bm              G        Bm             G
  I watched you suffer,   a dull aching pain
Am           C         G               Dsus4  D
  Now you've decided,   to show me the same
Bm            G       Bm            G
  No sweeping exits,    or offstage lines
Am                C        G               Dsus4  D
 Can make me feel bitter,   or treat you unkind
 
[Chorus]
Am        C        G                  Dsus4  D
 And wild horses,   couldn't drag me away
Am        C        G                  Dsus4  D
 And wild horses,   couldn't drag me away
 
[Verse 3]
Bm            G            Bm           G
  I know I've dreamt you,   a sin and a lie
Am             C         G                      D
 And I have my freedom,   but I don't have much time
Bm              G        Bm                  G
  Fate has been suffered   and tears must be cried
Am                C        G          Dsus4  D
 So let's do some living,    after we die
 
[Chorus]
Am        C        G                  Dsus4  D
 And wild horses,   couldn't drag me away
Am        C        G                  Dsus4  D
 And wild horses,   couldn't drag me away

Sweet, Sweet song... Susan has a beautiful, steady, and clear voice... These chords are right on. Strum pattern is complex in her version of the song. But that's why the ear was invented. Just listen to the song. Like Roj_Vincent said, it's more like a feel to the music than anything. Become one with the music.. Let it flow through you.

Thank you Sam. It's a good start. It's a bit difficult to get the actual chord changes exactly right as Susan Boyle plays a bit fast and loose with the "flow" of the song (no criticism of her by the way) but I think you just need to feel the change as you play it. Good effort, thanks again. RV
