[Intro]
E

[Verse 1]
E
Well up on the middle 
of the mountain side
Where the red and the
                B
 Gray Squirrels play
        A                
And the sound of a fiddle 
          E
when the old man died
Would\'ve carried his 
       C#m
soul awa-aay

[Verse 2]
B    E
 And some boys hammered 
on the steel all day
                     
And some put a furrow
        B
 in the ground
    A            
But nobody did it 
          E
like the darlin\' boys
When the fiddle and 
               C#m
the bow came do-own
         A         
When the fiddle and
     B        E
 the bow came down

[Chorus]
       B
Oh the darlin\' boys, 
they all dressed funny

An the darlin\' boys, 
they talked real slow

But nobody didn it 
like the darlin\' boys
        A
When it came to 
the old ban-jooo
        E      
When it came to 
     B      E
the old banjo

[Instrument]
E    B    A    E

[Verse 3]
     E
Well down in the middle
 of a one horse town
Where the people
          B
 stand up high
     A                 
They pay by the gallon,
          E
 when the boys came down
Cause the little town
     C#m
 was dry-yyy

[Verse 4]
B        E
 For the darlin\' boys, 
they trapped on the river
                     
And darlin\' boys made
              B
 shine in the night
A                
Nobody did it like 
      E
the darlin\' boys
                    
When the time of the
          C#m
 moon was ri-iight
         A      
When the time of 
     B        E
the moon was right

[Chorus]
         B
Well the darlin\' boys, 
they all dressed funny

An the darlin\' boys,
 they talked real slow

But nobody didn it 
like the darlin\' boys
        A
When it came to the
 old ban-jooo
        E       
When it came to 
    B      E
the old banjo

[Chorus]
         B
Well the darlin\' boys,
 they all dressed funny

An the darlin\' boys,
 they talked real slow

But nobody didn it 
like the darlin\' boys
        A
When it came to 
the old ban-jooo
        E      
When it came to 
     B      E
the old banjo
