[ch]C[/ch]\r\nI've rode lots of horses and I've won a few shows[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]                     [ch]G[/ch]\r\nRidin' broncos at the big old rodeos[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]G[/ch]                     [ch]C[/ch]\r\nBut the dang-dest contraption that I've ever seen[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]D[/ch]                                    [ch]G[/ch]\r\nIs that bucket of bolts called a buckin'

          [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd when I first saw it, lord, it looked pretty slow[/tab]\r\n[tab]                                [ch]C[/ch]\r\nIt jumped and it kicked then it turned back and

 [ch]G[/ch]\r\nSo I pushed through the crowd and I talked to the man[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]                          [ch]G[/ch]\r\nWho had invented this here modified garbage can[/tab]\r\n[tab]  [ch]C[/ch]                       [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI said I'm a twister, and one of the best[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]D[/ch]                                    [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI'm a wolf of the world, boys,

[ch]G[/ch]\r\nI'll spur it so hard its sides will cave in[/tab]\r\n[tab]                                           [ch]C[/ch]\r\nAnd the bolts and the screws that hold the dang thing together[/tab]\r\n[tab]     [ch]D[/ch]                                          [ch]G[/ch]\r\nWill fall down inside it there and short out it motor[/tab]\r\n\r\n[Verse 4]\r\n[tab]          [ch]G[/ch]                   [ch]C[/ch]\r\nWell, the man, he said, \"Son, I'll take that bet,[/tab]\r\n[tab]      [ch]D[/ch]                         [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd I won't turn it on 'til you think that you're set\"[/tab]\r\n[tab]                          [ch]C[/ch]\r\nSo I got my riggin' and I cinched it on down[/tab]\r\n[tab]       [ch]D[/ch]                                      [ch]G[/ch]\r\nThen I said

[ch]G[/ch]\r\nThe foam rubber was a flyin' right off of its old neck[/tab]\r\n[tab]        [ch]D[/ch]                                  [ch]G[/ch]\r\nAnd the tin underneath, it was startin' to

started to say[/tab]\r\n[tab]     [ch]D[/ch]                           [ch]G[/ch]\r\nI'll win me that hundred for the end of the day[/tab]\r\n[tab]                                       [ch]C[/ch]\r\nThen he grabbed a big ol' lever with a little sly grin[/tab]\r\n[tab][ch]D[/ch]                                                [ch]G[/ch]\r\nJammed it up to high gear and locked it right
