verse 1 
C 
Jake ridin' south on the holiest day 
C 
Headin' for the Mexican border 
C 
Shotgun movin' to the rhythm of his range 
C 
Just to help him keep law and order 
C 
Sits right back just a-takin' it easy 
C 
Drinks a shot a whiskey 
                        B 
And it makes him mighty wheezy 
C 
He coughed hard once 
C 
He coughed hard twice 
C 
Neglecting keeping watch 
                  F         C    F          Bb 
Don't mind the sheriff's advice,   oh yeah
