Capo: 4 Tuning: E A D G B E

Written by Joy McKean CAPO 4 (I'm pretty sure that's how Slim played it) [Intro Chords] D C G D

I^D'm a ringer from the top end Where ya gotta know your j^Aob

And what you're doin' each day On 2 million acres you bet

Ya have to earn your p^Day If ya wanna take it on There's one thing that shouldn't be fo^Grgotten ^Em N^Gobody can do the j^Aob Like a ringer from the t^Dop end

O^Aut on the fence line swallowing dust B^Elood on my hands from the barb

Hoping that rogue bull won't see the hole

B^Aefore they get him in the yard But I g^Det a funny feeling in the middle of my back S^Gure enough he's coming like a tr^Emain down the track T^Ghat's when nobody else moves fa^Aster Than the springer from the to^Dp end

I^D'm a ringer from the top end Where ya gotta muster ^A3 thousand head in a day Move 'em to the yards and water them at end of d^Day

It's not the sort of job you'd take

If you're looking for a so^Gft one ^Em B^Gut ya take a kinda pride in sa^Aying I'm a ringer from the t^Dop end

W^Aell I roll out my swag 'neath the boab tree A^End then I'm out like a light

Dreaming about those girls in town

N^Aext thing it's broad daylight N^Do time to dream of what might have been I'm in a dir^Gty bull catcher with the m^Emustering team I^G better keep my mind on the j^Aob 'Cause I'm a ringer from the to^Dp end

A^Gnd nobody does the job be^Atter Than a ringer from the to^Dp end

Slim Dusty - Ringer from the top end
