    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,

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

    the moon was right

    you\'re walkin\' in the rain
               D       
    And find a light if

    the path is dark and cold
