INTRO: C F C F C F C F C
Am
Hey now boys, there's something not right
F G
Did anyone see Willy at the dance last night?
C Am
Let's pick up Boa without a fuss
F G
Chuck him in with the camans at the back of the bus
C Am
'Cause we're running late, it's way past ten
F G
We're driving through the straths and glens
Am F
Come on, Johnny Bulla, make it fast
C G C
For the twelve noon throw-up and the clash of the ash
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F C F C F C
Am
Well, we'd better make changes now it seems
F G
Geek to the centre, Weed to the wing
C Am
My Rocket's old and slow and due to retire
F G
Stick him right on the sawdust, ready to fire
C Am
And if we do all that and there's no one spare
F G
Tell me who's gonna mark the Kinlochshiel Bear
Am F
He's hard as nails, quick as a flash
C G C
He comes down from the caves for the clash of the ash
INSTRUMENTAL: C F C F C F C F C
Am G Am G C

This story started long ago
F G
With heroes forged, legends told
C Am
And for every fighting highland man
F G
Stand by your brother, die for the clan
C Am
Well, when the whistle blows and the battle's done
F G
These Shinty boys shine like the sun
Am F
We don't play for fame, we don't play for cash
C G C
We just play for the glory and the clash of the ash
