[Verse 1]
Childhood living is easy to do
The things that you wanted, I bought them for you
Graceless lady, you know how I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands

[Chorus]
Yeah, ’cause wild horses couldn't drag me away
'Cause wild horses couldn’t drag me away

[Verse 2]
And I watched you suffer a dull and deep pain
And now you decided to show me the same
But no sweeping exits or offstage lines
Can make me feel bitter or treat you unkind

[Chorus]
Yeah, 'cause wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
'Cause I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
Because I've got my freedom, but I don't have much time
Because faith has been broken, tears must be cried
So let's do some living after love dies

[Outro]
Yeah, ’cause wild horses couldn’t drag me away
'Cause wild, wild horses we’ll ride them some day
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses, we'll ride them some day

[Audience Applause]

[Spoken Word: Mick Jagger]
Thank you. Thank you very much

The Rolling Stones

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
