Stampede Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
There's just [C]one word I
don't want to hear
When I heard it called
it cost a friend quite dear
I can hear it echo [G]as though it were
now
When I was a [C]chasin'

[Verse 2]
of the long horned cow
[G]Stam[F]pede they're comin'
up to [C]draw
Stampede [G]three thousand
herd or more
Here they [C]come a smokin' fire boys you
[F]better earn your [C]hire
Stampede [G]and hell to [C]score

[Verse 3]
Now Frank he was my [C]partner
he rode [F]point upon my [C]heart
We drank and fought and partnered
back to [G]back at troubles start
We [C]heard the call on evening in the
[F]thunder [C]and the black
When the lightnin' hit the leaders
and the [G]devil led the [C]pack

[Verse 4]
Stam[F]pede they're comin'
up to [C]draw...
[G][C][F][C][G]
[C]

[Verse 5]
Our horses they were handy for
[F]we had just rode [C]in
We went from drinkin' coffee
[G]to thinkin' of our sins
There [C]wasn't [G]time for [C]prayin'
there was [F]hardly time to [C]cuss
It was a smokin' roarin' rattle
and the [G]leaders were on us
Stam[F]pede

[Verse 6]
they're comin'
up to [C]draw
[G][C][F][C]

[Verse 7]
[G]
[C]Old Frank's foot it missed the stirrup
and his [F]hand it missed the [G]horn
And [C]as the cattle crossed him from his
[G]body life was torn
I was mounted and a rid[C]in'
when I [F]heard his final [C]yell
Said hey Johnny [G]head the [C]wild
[G]bunch and do the ladies [C]well
Stam[F]pede they're

[Verse 8]
comin' up to
[C]draw
[G][C][G][C]
[G]

[Verse 9]
[C]
No I ain't got no partner cause old
[F]Frank's done dead and [C]gone
But just so he'd be remembered
Peter put [G]him in this song
[C]Some admire headstones but I [F]think he'd like
this be[C]st
He weren't fancy in his livin' so he
ain't fancy in his rest

[Verse 10]
[F]Stampede they're comin'
up to [C]draw

[Outro 1]
