This is the chords of Bob Fudge by Colter Wall on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.
[Verse 1]
Em
My name is Bob Fudge
I was born in Texas
Am
Lampasas County
Back during the war
Em
Small Pox and Comanches
Took most of my family
Am
Left my poor mother,
G Em
My brothers, and me

So I headed North
To ride for the Blockers
Am
They were contractin’ herds
On the Montana range
Em
In the Spring of the year ’82
We left ol’ Lampasas
Am
With two thousand steers
G Em
For the Little Big Horn
[Chorus]
C
Crossing our trails
Am
There were many great rivers
C
All to be crossed
D
Not a bridge would we find
[Verse 2]
Em
In the cold rolling waters
And the wild plunging cattle
Am
There was many a young man
G Em
Took leave of his life
[Chorus]
C G Am Am G C Em

[Verse 3]
Well we crossed at Doan’s Store
Into the Indian nation
Am
Saw the blood on the rocks
Where those cowboys had died
Em
Then it’s on Fort Dodge
On the Arkansas River
Am
Where gamblers and the whores
G Em
All welcomed us there
[Chorus]
C
And the great snowcapped peaks
Am
Are on our left side now
C
For many miles
D
In the great silent land
[Verse 4]
Em
When I first saw Montana
I knew I would love her
Am
I would ride her great ranges
G Em
‘Til the end of my days
[Chorus]
C G Am G C Em
[Verse 5]
But she’s all cut-and-dry no
And the trails are all gone
Am
I’ve been to Yellowstone Park
In an automobile
Em
But I can still see ’em swimming
Boys, I can still hear ’em running
Am
I came off of the trails
When cowboys was king
Em
My name is Bob Fudge
I died in Montana
C G Am G C Em Am
