Verse 1
D
Trooper hook upon his horse
is a mighty wondrous thing
G
But the cavalry comes a -chargin'
and the Indian arrows sing
D
Rawhide strong,
Trooper Hook knew the
C
West like a book
D
Soldier true to his fighting,
C
never threw,
D
C
D
C
D
C
never threw
D
The mountains stretched
their lonely peaks
against the copper sky
G
The dusty earth resounded as the
Trooper he rode by
D
Shining Spurs army rig
C
makes a man feel mighty big
D
Give me earth, give me sky,
C
D
let me live, let me die as a trooper
C

C
D
And he found a captive wife
of an Apache Indian chief
G
It's his duty to restore her
to her husband bowed with grief
D
But she would not part
C
with the child of her heart
D
And she knew fear and danger,
C
D
C
D
C
D
C
too, danger, too
D
Oh, great and strong the man was he,
in his heart he was so kind
G
She aimed to give him peace and rest,
no blame was in his mind
D
C
There instead the trooper a gun forgave,
which they took
D
And she knew this man
C
would take him through
D
C
Take them through
D

They rode the stage to bring her back
The driver seated high
G
He snapped his great long
snakey whip
Against the wind -blown sky
D
On he shouted Haroo
C
As he drove the stage on through
D
But the Indians followed too
C
And within the coach they knew
D
C

C
D
C

Mortal danger
The trooper walked to meet the chief
with a firm and steady tread
G
Beside the coach they
watched the scene
and the women filled with dread
D
Life or death, what would it be?
C
Return the child and set them free
D
Or buy the things they need
C
D
Would there be another plea by the
C
D
C

mother?
King Solomon alone could
solve this problem
oh so grim
G
Each parrot had a natural right
to deny it was a sin
D
The trooper's duty it was plain
C
And so he chanced a desperate game
D
Would the chief give up his claim
C
Seymour put a bullet in the brain of his

child.
Trooper Hook, he did free them
from their desperate, lonely stand.

He took the mother and the child,
fleeing the Apache band.

could not ac cept her mixed -blood son.

and from the Apaches they did run.
