The Chisholm Trail Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Come a [A]-tie -ie -yip
[G]pie -yippie [D]-yay
Come along, boys, and listen to my tale
Tell you all my trouble
on the old Chisholm Trail
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie
[D]-yay -yippie -yay
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-yay
Well, I started up the trail October 23rd
Started up the trail with the big U -Herd
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie
[D]-yay -yippie -yay
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-yay
Woke up one morning
on the old Chisholm trail
A rope in my hand and a cow by the tail
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie
[D]-yay -yippie -yay
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-yay
Now old Ben Bolt was a
blame good boss
He'd go to court the gals
on a sold -back horse
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie
[D]-yay -yippie -yay
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-yay
Well, it's beans and a -bakin' every day
I'll soon be eatin' that prairie hay
Come a [A]-tie a -yippee,
yippee [D]-ay, yippee -ay
Come a [A]-tie a -yippee,
yippee [D]-ay[A][D]
[A][D]
Well, it's cloudy in the west,
a -lookin' like rain
My darned old slicker's
in the wagon again
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie
[D]-ay -yippie -ay
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-ay
Well, I jumped in the saddle,
I grabbed the horn
The best darn cowboy ever was born
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie
[D]-ay -yippie -ay
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-ay
Oh, well, I went to the boss to draw my roll
He had me figured out
forty dollars in the hole
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie
[D]-ay -yippie -ay
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-yay
So I'll sell my outfit fast as I can
I won't punch cattle, burn no darn man
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-yay
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-yay
With my knees in the saddle,
a seat in the sky
Quit punching cattle in the
street by and by
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-yay
Come a [A]-tie -ie -yippie -yippie [D]-yay
Thank
