Hold Your Horses

Ella Edmondson

Text File

this track is Ella's first single from her debut album
"Hold your horses"; I'm not 100% sure about the lyrics but about the chords ;) 
(there might be some variation in lyrics and chord progression with the
album track because this is one version of the song played by Ella live 
on a 12string acoustic guitar)
enjoy and for any comments just send me a message via my profile on this site
