Verse 1
(D major) Oh, (A major) Bakersfield (D major) was quite (A major) a cowboy
down in Texas. (D major)
Why, he's the western super (A major) man,
to say the (D major) least.
He was (G major) the roughest, critter,
never known (D major) to be a quitter.
Cause he never had (A major) no fear
of man or beast. (D major)
So yippee (G major) -yi -hey, yi -hey, yippee -yi (D major) -ho.
For the toughest critter
(A major) west of the Alamo. (D major)
(A major) Once there was (D major) a drought
(A major) that spread all over Texas (D major)
So to sunny Califor (A major) nia he did go (D major)
Though (G major) the gag is kinda corny,
he brought rain (D major) from California
That's the way we've got (A major) to go for Mexico
(D major) So yippee (G major) -aye -hey,
aye -hey, yippee -aye (D major) -o h
For the toughest critter (A major) west of the
Alamo (D major) (A major) (D major) (A major) (D major) (A major)
(D major) (G major) (D major) (A major)
(D major) So yippee (G major) -yi -yay, yi -yay, yippee -yi (D major) -o h
For the toughest critter (A major) west of the Alamo
(G major) (E minor) (A major) Now once (D major) a band of rust (A major) lers
stole a herd of cattle (D major)
But they didn't know (A major) the herd
they stole was Bill's
(D major) And when (G major) he caught
them crooked villains
Pecos knocked (D major) out all their villains
That's the reason why
(A major) there's gold in them thar hill (D major) s
So yippee (G major) -yi -hey, yi -hey, yippee -yi (D major) -ho
For the toughest critter
(A major) west of the Alamo (D major)
(A major) Pecos (D major) lost his way
(A major) while traveling on the desert
(D major) It was ninety miles (A major) across the burning sand
(D major) He knew (G major) he'd never reach the border
if he didn't (D major) get some water
So he got a stick (A major) and dug
the Rio Grande (D major)
So yippee (G major) -aye -hey, aye -hey,
yippee -aye -o (D major) h
For the toughest critter (A major) west of the Alamo
(D major) Now (A major) while reclining (D major) on a (A major) cloud
high over Texas
With (D major) his guns he made (A major) the stars evaporate
(D major) Then Pecos (G major) saw the stars declining
So he left (D major) one brightly shining
As the emblem of (A major) the Lone Star,
Texas State
(D major) So yippee (G major) -aye -hey,
aye -hey, yippee -aye (D major) -ho
For the toughest critter (A major) west of the Alam (D major) o
(G major) That's (A major) Pecos
