Doris Day - The Deadwood Stage Chords
[G]Oh the Deadwood Stage is a rollin’ on over the plains, With the curtains flappin’ and the driver slappin’ the [D]reins. Beautiful [D7]sky, a [G]wonderful day. [D]Whip crack away, [D]whip crack away, [D]whip crack a [G]way!
Oh the [G]Deadwood Stage is a headin’ on over the hills, Where the Injun arrows are thicker than porcupine [D]quills. Dangerous [D7]land, no [G]time to delay. So, [D]whip crack away, [D]whip crack away, [D]whip crack a[G]way!
We’re headin’ [C]straight for town, [G]loaded down, [D]with a fancy [G]cargo, [D]Care of Wells and [C]Fargo, Illi[D]nois [D7] boy.
Oh the [G]Deadwood Stage is a comin’ on over the crest, Like a homing pigeon that’s a hankerin’ after its [D]nest. Twenty three [D7]miles we’ve [G]covered today. So, [D]whip crack away, [D]whip crack away, [D]whip crack a[G]way!
The wheels go [C]turnin’ round, [G]homeward bound, [D]Can’t you hear ’em [G]humming, [D]Happy times are [C]coming for to [D]stay [D7]hey.
We’ll be [G]home tonight by the light of the silvery moon, And our hearts are thumpin’ like a mandolin a plunking a [D]tune. When I get [D7]home, I’m [G]fixing to stay. So, [D]whip crack away, [D]whip crack away, [D]whip crack a [G]way. [D]Whip crack away, [D]whip crack away, [D]whip crack a [G]way!
