    Wrangler will wrangle nevermore
    A

    His days with the
    D
    A

    Roundup they are o 'er
    D

    Was a year ago last
    G
    D

    April when he rode into our camp

    Just a little
    A

    Texas stray and nothing more
    D
    A
    D

    Was late in the evening when
    G

    he rode into
    D

    to our camp on a little

    Texas pony he called
    A

    Joe.
    D
    A
    D

    With his broken shoes and overalls,

    A
    D

    a tougher looking kid you nev
    A
    D

    er in your lives before did so.
    G

    His saddle was a
    D
    A

    Texas type built many years ago,
    D

    an
    A

    OK spur on one foot lightly swung.
    D

    With his bag rolling up,
    G

    cotton sack too loosely tied behind,
    D
    A
    D

    An d a canteen from his
    A
    D

    saddle horn was slung
    A
    D

    He said he had to leave his
    G

    home, his pa had married twice
    D
    A

    His new ma hooked him every day or two
    D
    A

    So he saddled up old
    D
    G

    John one night and lit a chuck away
    D
    A
    D

    He said he'd try to
    A
    D

    paddle his own canoe
    G

    He said if we would give him work he'd
    D

    do the best he could

    Though he didn't know straight
    A

    up about a cow
    D

    So the bossy cut him out of
    G
    D

    bound and kindly took him on
    A
    D

    He's sorta like this little kid somehow
    A
    D

    He learned to wrangle horses and
    G
    D

    learned to know them all
    A

    And get them in a daybreak if he could
    D
    A
    D

    And to trail the old chuck wagon and
    G
    D

    G

    We had hardly reached the

    Paithos
    D

    And the weather, it was fine
    A
    D

    We were camped out on the
    A

    south side in a draw
    D

    When an or der come in blowin'
    G
    D

    And we doubled up our guards
    A
    D
    A
    D

    It took every one of us to hold them in

    Little
    A
    D

    Joe, the wrangler,
    G
    D

    was called out with the rest
    A
    D

    Scarcely had the little fella
    A

    reached the herd
    D
    A

    When the cattle they stam
    D
    G

    peded like a hailstorm they fled
    D
    A
    D

    And everyone was ridin' for the lead
    G

    Amid the streaks of lightning there
    D
    A

    was one horse up ahead
    D

    He was tryin' to check the
    A

    leaders in their speed

    It was
    D

    Little

    Joe the
    G
    D

    Wrangler with a slipper o 'er his head
    A
    D

    He was ridin' on the rocket in the lead
    A
    D

    At last we got them millin'
    G
    D

    And kinda quieted down
    A
    D

    And the extra guards back
    A

    to the wagon went
    D

    But there was one a -missin'
    G
    D

    We could see it at a glance

    Was our little
    A

    Texas stray boy

    Wrangler

    Joe
    G

    Next morning, just at daybreak
    D

    We found where

    Rocket fell

    Down in a washout twenty feet below
    A
    D
    A
    D

    Beneath his horse his life was gone
    G

    His forehead rugged stale

    • 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.
