Deadwood Stage
Doris Day
[Intro]
[D]
[Verse 1]
Oh the [D] Deadwood Stage is a-rollin' on over the plains,
With the curtains flappin' and the driver slappin' the [A] reins.
Beautiful [A7] sky, a [D] wonderful day.
[A] Whip crack-away, [A] whip crack-away, [A] whip crack a [D]way!
[Verse 2]
Oh the [D] Deadwood Stage is a-headin' on over the hills,
Where the Injun arrows are thicker than porcupine [A] quills.
Dangerous [A7] land, no [D] time to delay.
So, [A] whip crack away, [A] whip crack away, [A] whip crack a[D]way!
|[Chorus 1]
|We're headin' [G] straight for town, [D] loaded down,
|[A] with a fancy [D] cargo,
|[A] Care of Wells and [G] Fargo, Illi[A]nois [A7] boy!
[Verse 3]
Oh the [D]Deadwood Stage is a-comin' on over the crest,
Like a homing pigeon that's a-hankerin' after its [A] nest.
Twenty three [A7] miles we've [D] covered today.
So, [A] whip crack away, [A] whip crack away, [A] whip crack a[D]way!
|[Chorus 2]
|The wheels go [G] turnin' round, [D] homeward bound,
|[A] Can't you hear 'em [D] humming,
|[A] Happy times are [G] coming for to [A] stay [A7] hey!
[Verse 4]
We'll be [D] home tonight by the light of the silvery moon,
And our hearts are thumpin' like a mandolin plunking a [A] tune.
When I get [A7] home, I'm [D] fixing to stay.
So, [A] whip crack-away, [A] whip crack-away, [A] whip crack a[D]way.

[Verse 5]
Oh my [D] throats as dry as a desert thistle in May
In the Golden Garter, gonna wet my whistle [A] today
[A7] Last at the bar's, a [D] three-legged crow
[A] Set 'em up Joe, [A] Set 'em up Joe, [A] Set 'em up [D]Joe
[A] Set 'em up Joe, [A] Set 'em up Joe, [A] Set 'em up [D]Joooooooooe
