The Real McKenzies - Due west

N.C.

Aye we still march and will never falter

N.C.

Side by side we sing our song

N.C.

Let’s have a cheers for our fallen brethren

N.C.

Through us they will never die

The ^Ebbattle moves on We’ve taken hits but ^Abstill we stand strong Even with ^Ebno end in sight We’re still chasing in the ^Bbwind ^EbOne thing’s for sure Our intentions yes ^Abthey still they be pure Helps with an^Ebgio^Bbgene^Ebsis

So ^Cmhold your ^Abhead up ^Bbhigh This ^Cmland our ^Absea and ^Bbsky

I re^Ebmember a time So much easier to ^Abpick out the blind All tucked ^Ebwarm in their beds With a blanket of ^Bblies To ^Ebgive truth a breath Of fresh air we will have to ^Abmake them confess And a^Ebtone for ^Bbfalsehood ^Ebshrines

So ^Cmhold your ^Abhead up ^Bbhigh This ^Cmland our ^Absea and ^Bbsky

And so we ^Ebsing, like it’s our ^Ablast From morning ^Ebport, within our ^Bbgrasp So we can ^Ebhold, so pridefu^Ablly A place we ^Cmbuilt,^Bb in harmo^Ebny

^EbAye we still march and will ^Abnever ^Ebfalter ^AbSide by ^Ebside we ^Bbsing our song ^EbLet’s have a cheers for our ^Abfallen ^Ebbrethren ^AbThrough us ^Ebthey will ^Bbnever ^Ebdie

^CmYou sip your ^Bbwine And ^Cmwe’ll slam our ^Bbrye ^EbLife has ^Bbalways ^Cmneeded ^Bblads to ^Abpiss a^Bbway the ^Ebtime
