[Intro] C C C C C C C C [Verse 1]
           C
We've been riding all night just to get here

             F                  C
Don't you be throwing us out so soon

           C
Across the whole damn south with cotton mouth

                            G
Now we got some drinking to do

           C
We've been stuck on the range for 45 days

    F                  C
And that's a long long time

         C
We ain't leaving this place till there's a smile on our face

        G                         C
And the whole room is a friend of mine
[Chorus]
             F                                 C
So won't you line 'em all up and slide 'em all down

    F                      C
And let's hear the jukebox roll

                     F
We've been livin' on bacon and beans

            F
Playin' the Jacks and the Queens

       D7                      G7
But we still got some money to blow

        F                 C
And the times ain't wild enough

           F                     C
We dig our spurs in the make 'em jump

             F                G                    C    C   D
We're ridin' shotgun with the devil we're the buckaroos
[Verse 2]
D
  My name is Gideon Tanner I've been a man of good manners

        G                         D
I won't dance 'til the ladies ask me

         D
I simply tip my hat I smile and sit back

                                      A
And then I wait for that friendly stampede

          D
I started dancin' so tight that this girl turned white

  G                            D
I thought she must be passin' away

           D
I said now don't let me down cause when I hit this town

            A                       D
I've got to live my whole life in a day
[Chorus]
             G                                 D
So won't you line 'em all up and slide 'em all down

    G                      D
And let's hear the jukebox roll

                     G
We've been livin' on bacon and beans

            G
Playin' the Jacks and the Queens

       E7                      A7
But we still got some money to blow

        G                 D
And the times ain't wild enough

           G                     D
We dig our spurs in the make 'em jump

             G                A                    D    D
We're ridin' shotgun with the devil we're the buckaroos
[Solo] | G | G | G | D | | G | G | Em | A | [Outro]
        G                 D
And the times ain't wild enough

           G                     D
We dig our spurs in the make 'em jump

             G                A                    D    D
We're ridin' shotgun with the devil we're the buckaroos

             G
We're ridin' shotgun, (shotgun shotgun

         A                    D    D*
With the devil we're the buckaroos    (drums)
