[Bb]
When I was just a very young lad, I walked up [Eb] and I told [Bb] my dad,
[Eb] A bareback rider's what I want to be, I want the whole [Ab] world to [Eb] know about me.
In [Ab] the rodeo arena I'll take my stand, I want to be known [Db] as a [Ab] rodeo man.
I'll [Db] come flying from the chute with [Ab] my spurs up high,
Chaps in boots reaching for the sky, [Db] Spurring wild [Ab] with my head throat [Eb] back,
You'll ask who's [Ab] that, well that's bareback [Eb] Jack, You'll ask who's [Ab] that, well that's bareback Jack.
[Bb]
The years of boyhood now have passed, It didn't take long [Eb] to learn the tricks [Bb] real fast.
[Eb] Now I'm going down the road with my rodeo gear, And I hope to make the [Ab] finals in [Eb] just a few years.
[Ab] When my chance comes I'll give it a whirl, And try to win [Db] the [Ab] championship of the world.
I'll [Db] come flying from the chute with [Ab] my spurs up high, Chaps in boots reaching for the sky,
[Db] Spurring wild with [Ab] my head throat back, [Eb] You'll all know me, [Ab] my name's bareback Jack,
You'll all know me, my name's bareback Jack.
[Bb]
[Bb] Well here I, the son of a [Eb] buck, jumped onto [Bb] my head,
[Eb] I'm a laying here a dying and a hurting real bad, Now I wish I'd [Ab] listened to [Eb] my old dad,
[Ab] When he said, son you better quit fooling around, You're gonna get your [Db] guts dropped [Ab] into the ground.
You come [Db] flying from the chute with your [Ab] tail up high, [Eb] That old bucking horse is [Ab] gonna throw you in the sky,
[Db] When you come down you're [Ab] gonna break your back, And then we'll all [Eb] know you as old crippled up Jack,
In a wheelchair [C] with a broken back.
