Tonart: Gb major
Verse 1
D
E
D
I was working on a ranch
G
D
away down in the Texas state.
Your breakfast mighty early
and your supper mighty late.
D
As I sprung from the saddle peg
G
D
I heard a cowboy say,
I got a big surprise for you,
E
D
just take a look this way.
G
D
Was the ranchman's pretty daughter
E
D
and what I mean she was fine
G
D
I bet my money then and there
the pretty gal was mine
E
D
We cowboys got to talkin'
G
D
at which one would win her heart
But all was mighty backward
E
D
when I came to make the start
The rancher heard us talkin'
G
all about his lady grand
D
He brings her down to meet us
and we gladly shakes her hand
D
She kinda looks me over,
G
D
I was feelin' mighty shy
Her eyes they sure were pretty
E
D
like the deep blue in the sky
G
D
She said she soon must leave
E
D
as she could only stay a week
G
D
She'd like to see a one of us,
a right ol' painter Pete
D
She looked at me a -smilin'
G
D
and I knew I'd won her heart
Says, I a right ol' painter Pete,
E
D
but you and I won't part
Now that ol' Swaybeck painter Pete,
G
D
he sure was hard to ride
I never seen a cowboy
yet that ever spurred his hide
A
D
But since I done me braggin'
G
D
I will ride his hide or bust
I often tried to ride him
D
but I always hit the dust
G
I rolled in Maude early
D
E
A
D
just to take my fate at will
G
D
And dream of Swaybeck Pitterpeat
E
that roamed out on the hill
D
I seen that blue -eyed Texas girl
G
D
when I rolled off the sleeve
A -watchin' me a -ridin'
E
A
D
now a Swaybeck Pitterpeat
He finally runs him in
G
D
and I tosses out my rope
The way that maverick bucked a boat,
he surely got my gold
A
D
And then there come the saddle
G
D
and I crawled into the seat
I grabbed me halter shank
E
A
D
and away went pit -o -peat
G
D
He bucked around in circles
A
D
till me brain was in a whirl
G
D
I had my heart a -centered
E
on that blue -eyed Texas girl
A
D
But then I lost me stirrup
G
D
and that dog went halter shank
I knew I soon must leave him,
E
A
D
kid me, mine was goin' blank
The last thing I remember
G
D
just before I hit the dust
Was scratchin' for the leather
E
I would ride that hydra buzz
A
D
And fi nally I come to
G
D
and all my blankets they were torn
Both hands around the bedpost
thinkin' it's a saddle horn
G
D
And standin' in the circle
A
takin' in my merry spree
D
G
D
That blue eye takes a daisy
E
A
just a -s milin' down at me
D
Says, gee, you're old, old Pinto Pete,
G
D
did you take me for your bride?
Says, I'll take you, darlin', dear,
D
but darn, old Pinto's high.
