[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
D One stormy day, me and my buddy A E Started on our roundup ride A D The wind and dust blew hard around us, A E A My buddy strayed far from my side
[Chorus]
D We were buddies in the saddle, A E We were buddies in our home, A D We were buddies herding cattle, A E A We were buddies everywhere we roamed
[Instrumental]
A D A E A D A E A
[Verse 2]
D I’ll ne’er forget the day I found him, A E He was so weak he could not speak A D I’ll ne’er forget the smile he gave me, A E A Then the poor boy fell asleep
[Verse 3]
D I took him up in my saddle A E And carried him home across the plain A D My mother nursed him every moment A E A To try to make him well again
[Chorus]
D We were buddies in the saddle, A E We were buddies in our home, A D We were buddies herding cattle, A E A We were buddies everywhere we roamed
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
D I’ve never had a pal so near me, A E He took the blame for everything A D I’d die for him just any moment, A E A And for me he’d do the same
[Verse 5]
D But now by buddy’s gone and left me, A E And it’s so hard to struggle ‘long A D So hard to believe that he has left me, A E A I can’t realize that he has gone
[Outro]
D We were buddies in the saddle, A E We were buddies in our home, A D We were buddies herding cattle, A E A We were buddies everywhere we roamed
