Verse 1
Am
Dm

Come all you old time cow boys
Am

And listen to my song

Please do not grow weary

I'll not detain you long

Concerning some wild cowboys

Who did agree to go
Dm

And spend the summer pleasant
Am

On the range of the buffalo
Dm
Well I found myself in Griffin In eighteen eighty-
Verse 2
Am


three

When a well- known famous drover

Come a'walkin' up to me


Sayin' "How do you do young feller

And how'd you like to go
Dm

And spend a summer pleasant
Am

On the trail of the buffalo?"
Dm

Well me being out of work right then
Verse 3

Am

To that drover I did say

"This goin' out on the buffalo road

Depends upon your pay

If you pay good wages

Transportation to and fro
Dm

Well I think I might go with you
Am

On the range of the buffalo"
Dm
Yes I will pay good wages
Verse 4

Am

And transportation too

If you'll agree to work for me

Until the season's through

But if you do grow homesick

And try and run away

You'll starve to death out on the trail
Dm
Am

And you'll also lose your pay
Verse 5
Dm

Well with all this flatterin' talkin'
Am

He signed up quite a train

Some ten or twelve in number

All able bodied men

Our trip it was a pleasant one

As we hit the Westward Row
Dm

Until we struck ol' Boggy Creek

In old New Mexico
Am
Verse 6

Well, here our pleasures ended
Dm
Am

And our troubles all be gun

When a lightnin' storm come up on us

And it made the cattle run

We got full of the stickers

From the cactus that did grow
Dm

And the outlaws waiting to pick us off
Am

In old New Mexico
Dm
Well the working season ended
Verse 7

Am

But the drover would not pay

He said "You went

and drunk too much

You're all in debt to me"

But the cowboys never had heard

Of such a thing as a bankrupt law

So we left the drover's bones
Dm

to bleach
Am

On the range of the buffalo

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
