The Seekers – Ox Driving Song (Guitar)

Em
Crack the whip and bring the blood

A
Make the leaders take the mud

              Em                       Bm
We've got the wheels and we turn them around

    A                        Em
One long hard pull and we're on hard ground

Em
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

      D
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

            Em A              G
To-me-ri-de-o___, to-me-ri-de-o

      D                   Em
To-me-ro, to-me-ro, to-me-ri-de-o

Em
On the fourteenth day of October-o

  A
I hitched my team in order-o

           Em             Bm
To try the hills of Saludio

      A                     Em
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

Em
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

      D
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

            Em A              G
To-me-ri-de-o___, to-me-ri-de-o

      D                   Em
To-me-ro, to-me-ro, to-me-ri-de-o

Em
When I got there the hills were steep

      A
Would make another person weep

           Em                Bm
To hear me cuss and crack my whip

    A            Em
And see the oxen pull and slip

Em
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

      D
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

            Em A              G
To-me-ri-de-o___, to-me-ri-de-o

      D                   Em
To-me-ro, to-me-ro, to-me-ri-de-o

Em
When I get home among my friends

       A
That's where my toil and trouble ends

         Em                   Bm
And bid adieu to the whip and line

    A                   Em
And ride no more in the winter time

Em
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

      D
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

            Em A              G
To-me-ri-de-o___, to-me-ri-de-o

      D                   Em
To-me-ro, to-me-ro, to-me-ri-de-o

Em
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

      D
To-me-rol, to-me-rol, to-me-ri-de-o

            Em D Em
To-me-ri-de-o________ - yeah!
