[Verse]
GHe was born for the saddle
D GAnd raised to ride the range
C GBy the time he turned thirteen
Am DHe learned that whiskey numbs the pain
GUntil one night in Arizona
D GMiss Tucson caught his eye
CNow all the whiskey in the world
G DWon't drown that pretty girl's goodbye-y-ye
[Chorus]
G EmYippie-i-o-o-o
BmYippie-i-a-a-a
Am CThat's the sound of a cowboy cryin'
EmIn the wi-i-ind and the rain
G EmYippie-i-o-o-o
BmYippie-i-a-a-a
C GHe'll cross over Jordan
DCallin' her naaa-a-ame
AmYippie-i-oooooo
Em Em Em Em CYippie-i-aaaaaa
[Verse]
GShe loaded down her two horse
D GFor a one off in Cheyenne
C GShe said I'll call you in the morning
Am DBut God had other plans
G'Cause a call came late that evening
D GFrom a voice he'd never heard
C GAnd he'll never forget when the stranger said
D GThat dooley in the ditch is hers
[Chorus]
G EmYippie-i-o-o-o
