C
The cattle prowled and the coyotes howled
F
Out on the Great Divide
C
I never done no wrong just singing a song
D7
As down the trail I ride
C
The rattlesnakes rattle at the prairie dogs
F
Don’t you hear that mournful tune
C
For it’s roundup time away out West
G7
C
When the cactus are in bloom
F
They call out every man
G7
I throw my saddle on my old cow-horse
C
I drink my coffee from a can
F
I’m gazing at the moon
C
For it’s roundup time away out West
G7
C
When the cactus are in bloom
F
It never snows or rains
C
That is where the sunshine’s best
D7
Out on the western plains
C
Some of the boys have gone away
F
But they will be back soon
C
For it’s roundup time away out West
G7
C
When the cactus are in bloom
F
They call out every man
G7
I throw my saddle on my old cow-horse
C
I drink my coffee from a can
F
I’m gazing at the moon
C
For it’s roundup time away out West
G7

When the cactus are in bloom
