Scrap With A Buck Kangaroo chords by

Verse 1
G
C
G

With an old .22 I went out for a roo
C
G

To feed up my old cattle hound
C

My chances were slim
F

with the light growing dim
G
C

For all I had left was one round

I cranked up the heat
G

that resembled a jeep
C
G

And drove to a tank on the run
C

Where roos come to drink,
F

that's the best place I think,
G
C

A man's almost certain for one.
G

I lined up a doe in the stance of a pro,
C
G

The rifle held tight in my fist.
C

I then held my breath,
F

for this roo it meant death,
G
C

I squeezed on the trigger but missed.

Then in my disgust
G

I threw down in the dust
C
G

That rifle and cursed at my aim
C
F

I came for a rue and that's what I will do
G
C
G
C

The old dog will eat just the same

I turned on the lights
G

all keyed up for a fight
C
G

And bailed up a buck kangaroo
C

Then armed with the stick,
F

I tore into him quick
G
C

Never dreaming just what he would do

He grabbed at the stick
G

and then started to kick
C
G

My shirt was ripped open both sides
C

And the next thing I knew,
F

as I sparred with that rue
G
C

I was minus a pair of good strides

He won every round,
G

I was kicked to the ground
C
G

With hoppers I thought were of steel
C
F

Then away I did shoot like

a young bandicoot
G
C

With that old kangaroo on my heels

I climbed up the tree
G

and that rue I could see
C
G

Went bounding away through the night
C

Then back to the Jeep
F

I did carefully creep
G
C

And passed out on the seat like a light

When I woke from my doze
G

I was just about froze
C
G

And aching all over to boot
C
F

My trousers and shirt are no more,

that's a cert
G
C

I arrived home in my birthday suit

Now I've knocked around in
G

the country and town
C
G

Cook of eating and many, that's true
C

But none can compare
F

with the scars that I bare
G

When I pulled on that
C
G
C

fucked kangaroo you

  • 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.
