Dave Gunning - Banks Of Sicily


CAPO: 4th Fret




INTRO: C

CHORUS:
        F        C
Fare ye well, ye banks of Sicily
F       C         D7sus2     G
Fare ye well, the valley and shore
C          F         C         Am
There's no Jock will mourn the loss o' ya
F           C            G  C
Poor bloody soldiers are weary

             F              C       G
The pipie is tuned and he's piping away
   C           F            C      G
He won't go to town for his vino today
    C        F         Em         Am
The sky over Antrim is cloudy and grey
        F                 C          G C
And the song that they're playing is eerie


CHORUS:
        F        C
Fare ye well, ye banks of Sicily
F       C         D7sus2     G
Fare ye well, the valley and shore
C          F         C         Am
There's no Jock will mourn the loss o' ya
F           C            G  C
Poor bloody soldiers are weary


                    F         C            G
It's march down the stairs at night on the bay
C             F             C          G
Packs on your backs and the boats are away
C            F              Em              Am
Waiting your turn while the pipes and drums play
        F                 C          G C
But the song that they're playing is eerie


INSTRUMENTAL: G7 C  F  C   F  C  D9  G  C  F  C  Am  F  C  G  C


               F             C          G
The drummie is polished, the drummie is grand
   C         F            C              G
He cannot be seen for his straps and his bands
   C              F        Em        Am
He cleans himself up for a photo and stand
   F         C         G  C
To leave his Lola, his dearie


CHORUS:
        F        C
Fare ye well, ye banks of Sicily
F       C         D7sus2     G
Fare ye well, the valley and shore
C          F         C         Am
There's no Jock will mourn the loss o' ya
F           C            G  C
Poor bloody soldiers are weary
F           C            G  C   F  C  G  C
