Runrig - Clash of the Ash
CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO:     C    F    C    F    C    F    C    F    C  
Hey now boys, there's Amsomething not right
Did Fanyone see Willy at the Gdance last night?
Let's Cpick up Boa withAmout a fuss
Chuck him Fin with the camans at the Gback of the bus
'Cause we're Crunning late, it's Amway past ten
We're Fdriving through the Gstraths and glens
Come Amon, Johnny Bulla, Fmake it fast
For the Ctwelve noon throw-up and the Gclash of the Cash
INSTRUMENTAL:   C    F    C    F    C    F    C    F    C  
Well, we'd better make changes Amnow it seems
FGeek to the centre, GWeed to the wing
My Rocket's Cold and slow and Amdue to retire
Stick him Fright on the sawdust, Gready to fire
And if we Cdo all that and there's Amno one spare
Tell me Fwho's gonna mark the GKinlochshiel Bear
He's Amhard as nails, quick as a Fflash
He comes Cdown from the caves for the Gclash of the Cash
INSTRUMENTAL:   C    F    C    F    C    F    C    F    C  
              Am   G   Am   G   C
This story started Amlong ago
With Fheroes forged, Glegends told
And for Cevery fighting Amhighland man
FStand by your brother, Gdie for the clan
Well, when the Cwhistle blows and the Ambattle's done
These FShinty boys shine Glike the sun
We don't Amplay for fame, we don't play for Fcash
We just Cplay for the glory and the Gclash of the Cash
