Chord diagramA augmentedA   Chord diagramD MajorD   Chord diagramA augmentedA   Chord diagramD MajorD

Verse 1:
          Chord diagramD MajorD
Well he's lookin' kinda jaded,  And his sight is not the best,
                                                Chord diagramG+G
And the hair around around his muzzle's turnin' grey.
        Chord diagramA augmentedA
He has seen a hundred musters,  And I think its only fair:
                                    Chord diagramD MajorD
We leave him in the longyard here today.

Verse 2:
       Chord diagramD MajorD
He was broken in the sixties,  Maybe 63 or 4.
                                      Chord diagramG+G
Never faltered always seemed to be on hand,
      Chord diagramA augmentedA
Never have I seen him beaten,  By a bullock in the bush,
                                          Chord diagramD MajorD
And at night watch he was pick of all the land.

Verse 3:
              Chord diagramD MajorD
So leave him out there in the longyard,  Do not rush him.
                                             Chord diagramG+G
Leave him out there with his mate, the baldy bay.
     Chord diagramA augmentedA
With his mates that he can graze, and He can laze with.
                                           Chord diagramD MajorD
Leave him there and we will turn him out today.

Verse 4:
   Chord diagramD MajorD
Oh yes he's lookin' kinda jaded,  And his sight is not the best,
                                                 Chord diagramG+G
And the hair around around his muzzle's turnin' grey.
        Chord diagramA augmentedA
He has seen a hundred musters,
                                                                Chord diagramD MajorD
And I think its only fair:  We leave him in the longyard here today.

Verse 5:
        Chord diagramD MajorD
He's entitled to some kindness,   In return for all he's been.
                                          Chord diagramG+G
Now he's failin' and his step is gettin' slow.
         Chord diagramA augmentedA
Let him squander his last summers    By the river with his mates,
                                           Chord diagramD MajorD
In the paddock where the sweetest grasses grow.

Verse 6:
        Chord diagramD MajorD
So leave him out there in the longyard,  Do not rush him.
                                             Chord diagramG+G
Leave him out there with his mate, the baldy bay.

Leave him out there till after smoko  And we'll catch him.
                                       Chord diagramD MajorD
We'll pull his tail and turn him out today.

Leave him out there with his mate, the baldy bay.
