SHOOT THE BUFFALO
American folk song
Key: D
Time: 6/8

  4   -4  5   5   5   -5   6
Stand you up, my dear-est dear
 6   5   -4  -4  -4   5    -4
And pre-sent me with your hand
 6    6   -6  -6 -7  7
And we’ll all run a-way
4   -4   5  -4   4   -3   4
To some far off dis-tant land
  4   -4  5   5    5   -5   6
Where the la-dies knit and sew
 6   5  -4   -4   -4   5  -4
And the men they plow and hoe
 6    6   -6  -7  7  -6   6     4
And we’ll ram-ble in the cane-brake
-4    5   -4   4  -3 4
And shoot the buf-fa-lo
