F Bb/F F T'was up in the Bluestack mountains, D'arcy kept a bit of a still F Dm C We were sneaking home a bottle, when the guards came up the hill F Bb/F F "Lose the booze" cried D'arcy and before we could reply, Bb C F He'd dumped it in the nosebag of his donkey standing by. F Bb/F F The donkey had a ganky leg, and only one good eye. F C When he got a lick of the whiskey, he'd swear that he could fly Dm7 C He rocketed through the roundabout, and down by Jamesie's bar, Bb C F Then he vaulted through the hedges at the track at Ballintra

F Bb/F F The flag was up, the race was on, the donkey looked behind F C He saw the guards were after him but sure he didn't mind Dm7 C He had himself another sip, and a second one as well, Bb C F Then he bucked and kicked and knocked the competition all to hell.
