I haven't seen this posted anywhere accurately. So I learned it by ear. This should
be correct. It is transcribed in A. It might sometimes be played in B flat. Here
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)
