Little Joe The Wrangler chords by
Harry Jackson
Harry Jackson

N/A
Verse 1
D

It was little Joe the Wrangler,

he'll wrangle never more,
A

his days with the cavvy they are done.
D

T 'was a year ago last summer
Bm
D

he rode up to the herd,
Eb

just a little Texas tray and all alone.
D
G

Well, it long late in the evening
D

when he rode up to the herd
Em

On a little brown pony he called Chaw
D

With his broken shoes and overhauls,

Bm

a tougher looking kid
D

Well, I never in my life had seen before
G
D

His saddle was a southern kite

built many years ago

And an old cash spur from one
Em

foot idly hung
D

While a hot roll in the cotton sack

was loosely tied behind

And the canteen from
Eb

the saddle horn was slung
D
G
D

He left his home in Texas,

his ma had married twice

And his old man beat him every day or two

So he saddles up old Chaw one night

And lit a shuck this way

Thought he'd try and paddle

now his own canoe

Well he is looking for a job

But he didn't know straight up about
Em

no cow
D

But the boy's kinda like the kid

And cuts him out of Mount

Cause he sort of liked

that little stray somehow
G

Taught him how to herd the horses
D

and to know them all by name
Em

And to get them in by daylight if he could
D

And to load the chuck wagon

and to always hitch the team

And help the old cookie

Russell would.

We was camped down in Red River

and the weather she was fine.
A

We was setting on the south side in a bend,

D

When the norther commenced blowing

and we all doubled up our guard,

Em

Cause it took all hands to
D
Eb

hold them cattle then.
D

But a little old Joe the Wrangler

was called out with the rest

And hardly had that kid got to that herd

When them devils they stampeded

like a hailstorm long they flew

And all of us was a -ridin' for

the lead

Between the streets lightnin'

we could see that horse there out ahead

It was little old Joe the Wrangler

in the lead.

He was ridin' old Blue Rocket
Bm
D

with his slicker for a blind,

Tryin' to check them lead cows

in their speed.
G
D

Well, we got him kinda millin'

and sorta quieted down,

And the extra guard back
Em

to the camp did go.
D

But one of them was missin'
Em
Bm
D

and we all saw at a glance

T 'was our little lost horse

Herder Wrangler Joe

Next mornin' just at sunup

we found where Rockett fell
Em

Down in a washout forty foot below
D

Beneath his horse smashed to a pulp
D

His spurs had run the nill,

For our little lost horse,

Herder Angler Joe.

  • 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.
