[Verse 1]
When [G]I was just a[C] very
young [G]lad I walked up and I [C]told [G]my dad
A [C]bareback rider's what I [F]wanna [C]be [G]I[C]
want the whole world [F]to know about [C]me[G]
In the [F]rodeo arena I'll [Bb]take [F]my stand I
wanna be known [Bb]as a rodeo [F]man
I'll come [Bb]fly in' from the
chute with [F]my spurs up high
[C]Chaps and boots reachin' [F]for the sky
Spur[Bb]rin' wild with my head
[F]throw'd back
You'll [C]ask whose that well
that's [F]Bareback Jack
You'll [C]ask whose that
[F]well that's Bareback Jack

[Verse 2]
The [G]years of boyhood [C]now have [G]passed
It didn't take long to learn the
[C]tricks real [G]fast
Now I'm [C]goin' down the road
with my [F]rodeo [C]gear[G]
[C]And I hope to make the
finals [F]in just a few [C]years[G]
[C]And whe[F]n my chance
comes I'll [Bb]give [F]it a whirl
Try to win the champion[Bb]ship [F]of the world
I'll come [Bb]flyin' from the chutes
[F]with my spurs up high
[C]Chaps and boots reachin' [F]for the sky
Spur[Bb]rin' a wild with my
[F]head flung back
You'll [C]all know me I'm

[Verse 3]
[G]
Well here I am I'm a [C]layin' in [G]bed
The son of a buck jumped [C]on to my [G]head
I'm a-layin' [C]here here dyin'
and a [F]hurtin' real [C]bad[G]
[C]Now I wish I'd listened to my [F]old dad[C]
[Cm]When[F] he said son you'd better
stop [Bb]foolin' [F]around
You're gonna get your guts
stomped [Bb]into [F]the ground
You'll come [Bb]flyin' from the
chute with your [F]tail up high
That [C]old buckin' horse is gonna
[F]throw ya in the sky
[Bb]When you come down you're
gonna break [F]your back
Then we'll all know you as Old
Crippled Up Jack
And that'll be all for ol'
