it is.

Verse 1:

Am6 Am7 Am6 Am7

I'm gonna pull this timber `fore the sun go down

C Am6 Am7

Get it `cross the river `fore the bars come down

Am6 Am7 Am6 Am7

Drag it on down that dusty road

D C A

Come on Jerry, let's dump this load

Chorus:

(A) C D C

I said "Timber, ho!", timber, woah this timber's gotta roll

A C D C

I said "Timber, ho!", timber, woah this timber's gotta roll

Verse 2: (alt. chords)

Am6 Am7 Am6 Am7

My old Jerry was an Arkansas mule

D C A

Been everywhere and he ain't no fool

Am6 Am7 Am6 Am7

Weighed nine hundred and twenty-two

D C A

Done everything a poor mule can do

(chorus)

Jerry's shoulders stood six foot tall

Pulled more timber than a freight could haul

Workin' heavy old Jerry got sore

Pulled so much he couldn't pull no more

(chorus)

The boss said "Jerry" and it made him jump

Jerry ran and kicked the boss's rump

My old Jerry was a cool mule

It been me I would kill that fool

Boss tried to shoot old Jerry's head

Jerry took the bullet and stomped him dead

Stomped the boss til he heard him scream

Sure don't care he was so damn mean

(chorus 2x)
