Standard (EADGBE)

o = 1/8 note

O o o

Then, some chords:

Now, a guitar:

chords:

Time for some singing:

A hand held over a candle in angst fuelled bravado

A carbon trail scores a moist stretched palm

(etc.)

And you listen with a tear in your eye

to their hopes and betrayels and your only reply

is Slainte mhath.

The guitar-riff starts again, with the same chords:

Princes in exile raising the standard Drambuie

Parading their anecdotes tired from old campaigns

(etc.)

Take it away

Take it away

Take it away

Take it away, take it away

Take it away, take it away

Take me away!

From the dream on a the barbed wire

at Flanders and Bilston Glen

From a Clydeside that rusts

from the tears of its broken men

(etc.)

And that's all folks!
