when the cactus is in bloom

Akkoorden in dit liedje

intro: C

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
 
 
Daylight comes and the cowhands yell
F
They call out every man
  G7
I throw my saddle on my old cow-horse
                         C
I drink my coffee from a can
 
 
The sun goes down on the cattle trail
F
I'm gazing at the moon
    C
For it's roundup time away out West
         G7            C
When the cactus are in bloom
 
 
We don't have cold weather
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

Daylight comes and the cowhands yell
F
They call out every man
  G7
I throw my saddle on my old cow-horse
                         C
I drink my coffee from a can
 
 
The sun goes down on the cattle trail
F
I'm gazing at the moon
    C
For it's roundup time away out West
         G7            C
When the cactus are in bloom
