[G] [C] [D]
[G]
Sure I'm an Ulster Orangeman, from Arran's Isle [D] I came,
To see my Glasgow brethren, [G] all of honour and of fame,
And to tell of my forefathers, who fought in days [D] of yore,
All on the twelfth [Bm] day of July, [G] in the sash my father wore.
Sure it is old, but it is beautiful, and its colours they [D] are fine,
It was worn at Very Occarin, [G] in a skin and a vine,
My father wore it as a youth, in the bygone days [D] of yore,
And it's on the twelfth I love to wear, [G] the sash my father wore.
The [C] time has [G] scarce [D] gone round, boys, [G] three [A] hundred years [D] ago,
[G] When rebels on [C]
Alderney's walls, [G] their [D] faces they'll [G] not show,
[A] When James and all [D] his rebel scum, [A] came up [D] to [A] Bishop's Gate,
[D] With [G] heart and hand [D] and sword and shield, he caused [A] them to [D] be prey,
[G] They fight and don't [D]
surrender, [G] but [A] come when duty [D]
calls,
[G] With heart and hand [C] and sword and shield, [G] we'll guard [D] [G] Alderney's walls,
Some folk [D] sing of [G] mountains and valleys, [C] where the wildflowers abound [G] and they grow,
[D] And some of the wave-crested billows, [A] that dash near the waters [D] below,
But I'm going to sing [G] of a river, and I hope in the chorus [D] you will join,
[G] Of the deeds that were done [C] by King William, on [G] the green [D] grassy slopes [G] of the Vine,
[D] On the green grassy slopes [G] of the Vine, [D] where the orange men with [G] William did join,
And fought for [C] glorious deliverance, [G] on the green [D] grassy slopes [G] of the Vine,
On the green grassy slopes of the Vine,
On the green [C] grassy slopes of the vine,
On the green [D] grassy slopes of the vine,
Oh, the blurred [G] pals are blurred
[C]
[D]
Though [G]
the streets be broad and narrow
[C] It's follow [G] we will, [D] follow we will, [G] follow we will
Though the streets be broad and narrow
[C] It's follow [G] we will, we will follow
[D] In the footsteps [G] of our King, God [Bm] bless [G] them
Follow, follow, [C] we will follow
[G] Rangers up the falls, dead as walls
We will [D] follow on, [G] down the Hamilton
[Em] If the [G] Pope and the Vatican, if they go to Dublin
We will follow on, for there's not a team
[C] Like the Glasgow [G] Rangers, no [D] not one
And there never [G] shall be one
Celtic know all about their travels
We will fight till the day [D] is done
[G] For there's not a hero, [C] not baldy, [G] none
No [D] not one, and there never [G] shall be one
Hello, hello, we are the Velvet Boys
Hello, hello, [A] you'll know us [D] by our noise
[G] We're up to the [C] knees and finging blood
[G] Surrender or you'll die
[D] For we are the Fowler Bank's [G] only boys
Hello, hello, we are the Velvet Boys
Hello, hello, [A] you'll know us [D] by our noise
[G] We're up to the [C] knees and finging [G] blood
Surrender or you'll die
[D] For we are the Fowler Bank's [G] only boys
Should it be so, it is beautiful
And its colours they [D] are fine
It was born at Berry, of Curran, [G] in a skin
And the boy, my Pop, wore it as a youth
And my Don pays [D] all the oar
And it's on the 12th I love to wear
[G] The sash my father wore
