[Intro 1]
[Am][Am][Am][Em]

[Intro 2]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]

[Verse 1]
We made [Am]camp along Red [C]River
Watch the [D]cattle as they bedded [Am]down
Back at the wagons Right after [C]supper
[D]Spreaded bed rolls on the gro[Am]und
Me and [D]Willie, we took the [Am]night guard
And the [D]sage never smelled [Am]so sweet
The prairie [D]moon was blazin' [Am]silver
No chance to[F]night [G]for a stamped[Am]e

[Verse 2]
Way over [Am]yonder off in the [C]distance
Towards the [D]mountains there in the [Am]west
Then I see lightning and I hear [C]thunder
My mind is [D]weary, I could use some [Am]rest
Then all at [D]once the wind shifts di[Am]rections
The clouds roll [D]in behind the tumble [Am]weeds
These longhorn [D]cattle are getting [Am]restless
God help us [F]all [G]if they stamped[Am]e

[Verse 3]
Smell the [Am]rain and hear the [C]thunder
The midnight [D]sky turns black as [Am]death
Lightning crashes, smell the [C]sulphur
It's rank and [D]strong as Satan's [Am]breath
The cattle [D]rise up and go [Am]runnin'
I spur my [D]pony on to take a [Am]lead
And across the [D]heard I can hear Willie [Am]yelling
[F]"Hey [G]stamped[Am]e!"

[Interlude 1]
[Am][C][D][Am]
[Am][C][D][Am]
[Am][C][D][Am]
[Am][C][D][Am][Am]

[Verse 4]
Dust clouds [Am]rise as the [C]rain falls
They mix to[D]gether, turn the air to [Am]mud
I feel the long horns brush a[C]gainst me
And I can feel the [D]demons
racing through my [Am]blood
Then all at [D]once, my pony [Am]stumbles
We hit the [D]ground, I rise up to my [Am]knees
In a flash a [D]light I can see the cattle [Am]coming
Lord I know I'm [F]gonna [G]die
in this [Am]stampede

[Verse 5]
Then I [Am]wait and I look a[C]round me
I'm in my [D]bed roll and I'm laying on the [Am]ground
Over there's a wagon and there's the [C]campfire
I was only [D]dreaming but what's that [Am]sound?
Then I feel the [D]earth tremble under[Am]neath me
As the [D]midnight sky begins to [Am]bleed
And from the [D]blackness
I can hear Willie [Am]yelling
[F]"Hey [G]stamped[Am]e!"
[F][G][Am]
