Stampede

    F                              
Stampede (stampede) they're comin' 
      C
up to draw
    C                     G
Stampede (stampede) three thousand 
herd or more
          C                        
Here they come a smokin' fire boys

Stampede    and hell to score


[Verse 2]
    C                              
Now Frank he was my partner he rode
 F             C
 point upon my heart
   C                             
We drank and fought and partnered 
         G
back to back at troubles start
   C                               
We heard the call on evening in the
 F               C
 thunder and the black
         C                         
When the lightnin' hit the leaders 
        G             C
and the devil led the pack


[Chorus]
    F                              
Stampede (stampede) they're comin' 
      C
up to draw
    C                     G
Stampede (stampede) three thousand 
herd or more
          C                        
Here they come a smokin' fire boys 
    F                C
you better earn your hire
    C   F  G             C
Stampede    and hell to score

[Verse 3]
    C                          F  
Our horses they were handy for we 
              C
had just rode in
   C                           
We went from drinkin' coffee to 
 G
thinkin' of our sins
      C                            
There wasn't time for prayin' there
     F              C
 was hardly time to cuss
C                                 
It was a smokin' roarin' rattle 
      G               C
and the leaders were on us


[Chorus]
    F                              
Stampede (stampede) they're comin' 
      C
up to draw
    C                     G
Stampede (stampede) three thousand 
herd or more
          C                        
Here they come a smokin' fire boys 
    F                C
you better earn your hire
    C   F  G             C
Stampede    and hell to score


[Verse 4]
            C                 
Old Frank's foot it missed the 
                 F                 
stirrup and his hand it missed the 
 C
horn
    C                              
And as the cattle crossed him from 
    G
his body life was torn
      C                           
I was mounted and a ridin' when I 
F               C
heard his final yell
         C                         
Said hey Johnny head the wild bunch
     G             C
 and do the ladies well


[Chorus]
    F                              
Stampede (stampede) they're comin' 
      C
up to draw
    C                     G
Stampede (stampede) three thousand 
herd or more
          C                        
Here they come a smokin' fire boys 
    F                C
you better earn your hire
    C   F  G             C
Stampede    and hell to score


[Verse 5]
      C                            
No, I ain't got no partner cause 
  F                     C
old Frank's done dead and gone
         C                     G
But just so he'd be remembered Peter
 put him in this song
C                            F   
Some admire headstones but I 
                 C
think he'd like this best
           C                       
He weren't fancy in his livin' so 
        G            C
he ain't fancy in his rest


[Chorus]
    F                              
Stampede (stampede) they're comin' 
      C
up to draw
    C                     G
Stampede (stampede) three thousand 
herd or more
          C                        
Here they come a smokin' fire boys 
    F                C
you better earn your hire
    C      F  G              
Stampede (stampede) and hell to 
    C
score
