Michael Keith - All The Rain In Kerry Cifras

[Verse 1]
G                       C        G
If we had a pint for every day in the saddle
G          C            D
And a chowder to savour with it too
G                     C               G
When my mind is filled with Heads and with castles
G                    D            G
Then I'm thinking of the days I had with you
G          C                           G
When roads cavort around those rocky inlets
G                 C            D
Our roars and our rasps echo round them too
G                     C        G
Nature's greens and greys and browns all assault me
G            D              G
And I'm back in the days I spent with you
 
[Chorus]
Am                 C               G
And the rear of Babs is a sight of joy and comfort
Am                 C              E
Up the Healy Pass, behind it we meandered
Am                      D                 G
Through the Conor Pass and all the rain in Kerry
Am                D                   G
And we swear that we'll be back again next year
 
[Verse 2]
G            C            G
So here's to Phil and Ian and to Trevor
G                       C       D
And a big shout out to lovely Babs too
G                 C                 G
For if there's a place for vans in the hereafter
G                       D              G
She'll know her way better than these four fools
G         C                      G
To shale and stones to scare our two wheels senseless
G                C            D
To mucky tractors and Audis backwards in hedges
G                C            G
Ferries roadworks and Dutch folk at breakfast
G           C                 G
And eating cake with young Americans too
 
[Chorus]
Am                 C               G
And the rear of Babs is a sight of joy and comfort
Am                 C              E
Up the Healy Pass, behind it we meandered
Am                      D                 G
Through the Conor Pass and all the rain in Kerry
Am                D                   G
And we swear that we'll be back again next year
 
[Chorus]
Am               C           G
The Old Head and to Skibbereen and Mizen
Am               C               E
Kenmare Eccles and Foxy Johns in Dingle
Am                 D         G
Skelligs and on to Lisdoonvarna
Am          D             G
And music in Fitzpatricks in Doolin
 
[Chorus]
Am                 C               G
And the rear of Babs is a sight of joy and comfort
Am                 C              E
Up the Healy Pass, behind it we meandered
Am                      D                 G
Through the Conor Pass and all the rain in Kerry
Am                D                   G
And we swear that we'll be back again next year
