Cisco Huston
Banjo Tuned E Key D, Capo 1
I think the video starts out in E, then F#, then G...I have it in D here for my voice...tabbed
before I found the video...v.g.
D G D
Way out on the wind-swept desert,
G A
Where nature played with no man
D G D
A buffalo found his brother
A
Lying baked on the sun-baked sand.
D G D
Said my brother what ails you?
A
A sickness made you this way?
G
His brother never said
G
'cause his brother was dead
D G D
He been dead since way last May
D G D
Big Chief Buffalo Nickel
G A
Was a mighty man in his day,
D G D
He never used a sickle
A
To clear the bushes away.
D G D
He'd roam around from tent to tent,
A
Eat everything in sight
G D G
He loved a squaw, every one he saw
D A D
He loved a new one every night.
D G D
Way out on the wind-swept desert
G A
I heard a big Indian noise,
D G D
I left my tent 'cause I knew what it meant
A
What I never known before.
D G D
It was gone when I reached St. Pete
A
My legs were certainly sore,
G D
I musta lost 50 pounds on
G D
that hot desert ground
D A D
And I'd lose that many more.
D G D
Big Chief Buffalo Nickel
G A
Was a mighty man in his day,
D G D
He never used a sickle
A
To clear the bushes away.
D G D
He'd roam around from tent to tent
A
Eat everything in sight,
G D G D
He loved a squaw, every one he saw,
A D
He loved a new one every night.
