Dogies Lament Chords

(ver. 1)
Kingston Trio
[Intro]
C  Dm  G  C
C  Dm  G  C

[Verse]
             Dm          G           C
As I was out walkin' one mornin' for pleasure
             Dm        G       C
I spied a cowpuncher a-ridin' along
                   Dm           G            C
His hat was thrown back and his spurs were a-jinglin'
            Dm              G            C
and as he approached he was singin' this song

[Chorus]
        G              C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie
     G                   C
It's your misfortune and none of my own
              F        G            C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie
                F          G           C
You know that Wyoming will be your new home

[Instrumental]
C  Dm  G  C
C  Dm  G  C

[Verse]
                  Dm             G            C
It's early in the spring when we round up the dogies
                  Dm            G             C
They mark 'em and brand 'em and bob off their tails
                  Dm           G            C
They round up the horses, load up the chuck-wagon
              Dm         G           C
Then send the dogies out on the long trail

[Chorus]
        G              C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie
     G                   C
It's your misfortune and none of my own
              F        G            C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie
                F          G           C
You know that Wyoming will be your new home

[Instrumental]
C  Dm  G  C
C  Dm  G  C

[Verse]
                  Dm       G           C
Your mother was a-raised a-way down in Texas
                Dm           G         C
Where the Jimsonweed and the sandburrs grow
               Dm    G            C
We'll feed you up on prickly pear cholla
                  Dm         G      C
And then send you roamin' to old Idaho

[Chorus]
        G              C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie
     G                   C
It's your misfortune and none of my own
              F        G            C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie
                F          G           C
You know that Wyoming will be your new home

[Outro]
C  Dm  G  C
C  Dm  G  C
                F          G           C
You know that Wyoming will be your new home
