Chords with lyrics

C majorC                     FF
I've seen some horses in my time but never one to buck

  G7G7                     C majorC
As well as old Aristocrat with him I've had no luck

                      FF      C majorC
I've traveled with the Skuthorpes and I've had lots of tries

 C majorC         FF      G7G7        C majorC
I seem to hear young Lance again as he gets up and cry


                    FF
Come 'round and listen all you boys who think that you can ride

   G7G7                          C majorC
I've got a horse in here that always throws them high and wide

                 FF       C majorC
Bring your knee pad saddles I'll give a tenner flat

  FF      C majorC      G7G7        C majorC
If you can stay ten seconds on my horse Aristocrat

               FF
He's thrown them in the east thrown then in the west

C majorC                         G7G7
Thrown them in the north where the riders are the best

C majorC            FF
Seen him throw them high seen him lay 'em flat

                  G7G7        C majorC
But I've yet to meet the fella who could ride Aristocrat


                   FF
Now Mulga Ned from River's Head said fifty pounds I'll back

 G7G7                   C majorC
Meself to turn that outlaw into a lady's hack

                  FF         C majorC
While he rode he cracked a whip to show what he could do

  FF      C majorC       G7G7        C majorC
He went so high we understand he cut a cloud in two

               FF
Another guy came in to try he walks up to the chutes

  G7G7                   C majorC
He had a cowboy saddle and a pair of fancy boots

                FF        C majorC
He legged him on the outlaw he thought he was a cinch

  FF          C majorC      G7G7         C majorC
Now we use his boots and saddle cause we haven't seen him since


                  FF
A augmentedA lanky guy from way out west came in to show us how

  G7G7                        C majorC
He said I'll ride your horse sir if my saddle you'll allow

               FF          C majorC
When he got on the outlaw his height was six foot four

  FF       C majorC         G7G7          C majorC
He landed on his head and now he's just five foot and no more


               FF
He's thrown them in the east thrown then in the west

C majorC                         G7G7
Thrown them in the north where the riders are the best

C majorC            FF
Seen him throw them high seen him lay 'em flat

                  G7G7        C majorC
