1st Verse:
/
A've ay worked on farms an' fae the start
/ (repeat
progressions)
The muckle horses won ma heart
Wi' big broad backs they proudly stand
The uncrowned kings o' aw the land
/ / /
An' yet for aw their power and strength
/
They're as gentle as a summer's wind
Chorus:
/
So steady boys walk on
/
Oor work is nearly done
/ /
No more we'll till or plough the fields,
/
The horses' day is gone
/ /
An' this will be oor last trip home,
/
So steady boys walk on.
Riff: Dsus2 (pluck strings: D, G, B, G, but pull off on the 2nd G)
