The Joyful Kilmarnock Blues

B  C#m
    N.C.
I'm not gonna talk about doubts and confusion
     N.C.
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut


[Chorus]
    B   N.C.                           C#m  N.C.
I'm not gonna talk about doubts and confusion
     B   N.C.                     C#m  N.C.
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut
    B   N.C.                           C#m  N.C.
I'm not gonna talk about doubts and confusion
     B   N.C.                     C#m  N.C.
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut


[Verse 1]
    B  N.C.
I'm not gonna talk about it, I'm not gonna talk about it
    N.C.
I'm not gonna talk about it, I'm not gonna talk about it
    N.C.
I'd never been to Ayrshire, I hitched down one Saturday
N.C.
Sixty miles to Kilmarnock to see Hibernian play
    N.C.
The day was bright and sunny but the game I won't relay
              N.C.
And there was no Kilmarnock Bunnet to make me want to stay


[Chorus]
        B         C#m
But I'm not gonna talk about it
     B                            C#m
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut
        B         C#m
No, I'm not gonna talk about it
     B                            C#m
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut


[Verse 2]
       B  N.C.
When I started walking to Wishaw, my eyes obscured my vision
      N.C.
After five miles on my way, I began to act a lesson
       B  N.C.
When I started walking to Wishaw, my eyes obscured my vision
      N.C.
After five miles on my way, I began to act a lesson


[Chorus]
        B         C#m
And I'm not gonna talk about it.
     B                            C#m
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut
          B                 C#m
I've been sayin', I've been sayin'
     B                            C#m
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut


[Verse 3]
  B  N.C.
I walked through the country, I walked through the town
  N.C.
I held my head up and I didn't look down
  B  N.C.
I walked through the country, I walked through the town
  N.C.
I held my head up and I didn't look down


[Chorus]
        B         C#m
And I'm not gonna talk about it
     B                            C#m
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut
        B            C#m
Lothian sky, Lothian sky
     B                            C#m
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut


[Verse 4]
          B   N.C.
Well, the question doesn't matter, the answer's always "Aye"
    N.C.
The best view of all is where the land meets the sky
    B   N.C.
The question doesn't matter, the answer's always "Aye"
    N.C.
The best view of all is where the land meets the sky


[Chorus]
    B         C#m
I'm not gonna talk about it
     B                            C#m
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut
       B          C#m
Here I go, here I go
B               C#m
Yeah, yeah, yeah    yeah


[Verse 5]
    B                                 C#m
I'd never been to Ayrshire, I hitched down one Saturday
       B                                 C#m
I went sixty miles to Kilmarnock just to see Hibernian play
    B                                C#m
The day was bright and sunny but the game I won't relay
              B                              C#m
And there was no Kilmarnock Bunnet to make me   stay


[Chorus]
    B         C#m
I'm not gonna talk about it
     B                            C#m
On a night when I can see with my eyes shut
          B                C#m
I've been sayin', I've been sayin'
B                C#m   B
Yeah, yeah, yeah,    yes
