Tom: Em
Em G
When Dunvegan's Drums beat in the air
C Em
At the first of the Inverness fair
Am
The liquor starts flowing
Em G
And the boys start going to town
D C
With blood in their hair
Em G
The townie boys eye up the boys from the glen
C Em
They neither got money to spend
Am
They take all the girlies
Em
Dancing and twirlin'
G D C
And scrap around back in the end

[Verse 2]
Em G
Me mother, she told me when I left the island,
C Em
"Keep your nose and your fingernails clean
Am
Don't ever be shy,
Em
Always look in their eye,
G D C
And always say what you mean."
Em G
Well I meant what I said when I called him a coward
C Em
Riddled with filth and disease
Am
The silence was golden
Em G
As I was left holding my guts
D C
In a pile at my knees

Em D
I remember the jackals, they gathered around
G C
Laughing and watching me bleed
Em D
They fought in a pack and they beat themselves dumb
Em
Rah-Dah-Dum-Dah
D Em
Dunvegan's Drums
Em D
I remember the bastards, they ran in the night
G C
When the Mounties showed up at the scene
Em D
They're all good for nothing, they're rabble and scum
Em
Rah-Dah-Dum-Dah
D Em
Dunvegan's Drums
