G [Verse] C G I stare out every evening at the distant Northern Star C G It leads us ever Northward and it tells us that we are F G Lost below the Yellowstone, in a land unknown to me C G Ten thousand miles from my loved ones and my home across the sea [Verse] C G We travel through an empty land, the benches are all strewn C G With Bison bones that shine ghost white ‘neath the rising of the moon F G And the red wolf howls an answer as I try to sing on guard C G Indentured to these Texans, in a land so wild and hard [Verse] C G When I hired on to Bill Ducharm In the heat of the Texas sun C G I was unaware of his darker side, his quickness with a gun F G But I made a solemn promise, oh, I’d ride with him through hell C G Deliver the herds to the ends of the earth or the mouth of the Musselshell [Verse] C G Well, I just turned about sixteen when we hit that first cow-town C G I drank my first strong liquor, ohhh, and the women spun me round F G But of all the barroom angels, with their soft forbidden charms C G I was stuck on blue-eyed Annie, who belonged to Bill Ducharm [Chorus] F C And the boy became a man F D That night in Annie’s arms F C Oh, Annie cried and begged me D D7 Beware of Bill Ducharm [Verse] G C G We left that Texas cow-town, we pointed the big herd north C G But the first night when the moon was down, I rode back to old Fort Worth F G They were closing up the barroom, oh, they were rolling up the floor C G My heart was in my mouth as I knocked on Annie’s door [Chorus] F C And the boy became a man F D That night in Annie’s arms F C Oh, Annie cried and begged me D D7 Beware of Bill Ducharm [Verse] G C G Old Bill Ducharm had one bad eye and his face was a devilish red C G The results of a bygone ferry fire, when he crawled back from the dead F G And every night in dreams, as I rolled in Annie’s arms C G I’d wait to face old Satan in the guise of Bill Ducharm [Verse] C G When each night 'cross the campfire, I’d face that one bad eye C G Did he know that I’d betrayed him, had my hour come to die? F G One promise he made true, ah, we rode with him through hell C G We delivered the herds to the ends of the earth and the mouth of the Musselshell [Chorus] F C And the boy became a man F D That night in Annie’s arms F C Oh, Annie cried and begged me D D7 Beware of Bill Ducharm [Instrumental] G C G C G F G C G [Verse] C G But now as we near the Yellowstone, the snow begins to fall C G And soon this dreadful enterprise shall be ending for us all F G It’s then I’ll need fast horses, ah, to fly to Annie’s arms C G And stay one jump ahead of the guns of Bill Ducharm [Chorus] F C And the boy became a man F D That night in Annie’s arms F C Oh, Annie cried and begged me D D7 Beware of Bill Ducharm [Chorus] F C Oh, the boy became a man F D That night in Annie’s arms F C Oh, Annie cried and begged me D D7 Beware of Bill Ducharm [Outro] G C G Ooooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh C G Ooooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh F G Ohh ohh hmmmmmmmmmm hmmm C G Ooooh ooh oooooh ooh ooh oooooh oooh ooh
