Ranger's Command - Woody Guthrie chords
Start Jamming...
[A]
Come all of you cowboys all over [D] this land, [E] I'll teach you the law of the [A] ranger's command.
To hold a six-shooter [D] and never to run, [E] As long as there's bullets in both of [A] your guns.
I met a fair maiden, whose name I [D] don't know, [E] I asked her to the round-up, with me [A] would she go?
She said she'd go with me to the cold [D] round -up, [E] And drink that hard liquor from the [A] cold bitter cup.
We started for the canyon [D] in the fall of the year, [E]
Expecting to get there with a [A] herd of fat steers.
And the rustlers broke on us [D] in the dead hours of night, [E] She rose from her warm bed, a battle [A] to fight.
She rose from her warm bed, [D] with a gun in each hand, [E] Said come all of you cowboys and fight [A] for your land.
Come all of you cowboys [D] and don't ever run, As [E] long as there's bullets in [A] both of your guns.
