Point Your Wagon Tongue chords by Red Steagall


Red Steagall Chords


Point Your Wagon Tongue           Red Steagall

(G) I hired on with col. Slaughter, driving (C) steers to Abi (G) lene
Green and wet behind the ears, a kid of seven (D) teen
Though (G) I was raised in Texas, I was (C) not a seasoned (G) hand
So I got the job of hoodilum, the (D) coosies right hand (G) man

(G) On the llano estecato, all you (C) see is endless (G) plains
You dread the sound of thunder, theres no shelter from the (D) rain
Now (G) the coosie did a strange thing, when the (C) evening meal was (G)
done
He'd wait until the stars come out, then (D) move the wagon (G) tongue

(G) He said there ain't no landmarks on these (C) wide and rollin (G) plains
There ain't no trees or mountains, so each day it looks the (D) same
But you'll (G) never lose direction and you'll (C) know just where you are
If you'll (G) always point the wagon tongue, (D) toward that ol' north (G)
star

(G) Out along the Cimarron, one (C) cold and stormy (G) night
I watched the cattle stampede, through the lightnings eerie (D) light
Took (G) several days to round em up, (C) get em settled (G) down
And we followed in the wagon, through the (D) soft and muddy (G) ground

(G) As we pushed the herd across the plains, (C) we had no way to (G) know
That we had drifted way of course, towards New (D) Mexico
But the (G) night the stars came out, (C) his theory stood the (G) test
Abilene's up north of us, but (D) we were headed (G) west

(G) He said there ain't no landmarks on these (C) wide and rollin (G) plains
There aint no trees or mountains, so each day it looks the (D) same
But you'll (G) never lose direction and you'll (C) know just where you are
If you'll (G) always point the wagon tongue (D) toward that ol' north (G)
star

(G) My life has been a full one, my (C) hair is turnin (G) gray
And I've seen a lot of sunshine, but I've seen some cloudy (D) days
For a (G) while I wondered aimlessly and (C) I still wear the (G) scars
Of when I didn't point my wagon tongue, (D) toward that ol' north (G) star

(G) Cause life is like a grassy sea, (C) the trail ain't always (G) plain
One may lead to pleasure and another lead to (D) pain
But you'll (G) never lose direction and you'll (C) know just where you are
If you'll (G) always point your wagon tongue, (D) toward that ol' north (G)
star

Yes you'll never lose direction and you'll (C) know just where you are
If you'll (G) always point your wagon tongue, (D) toward that ol' north (G)
star
