Вступление
[Intro]
G D G D
[Verse 1]
G D
In Devonshire I was a keeper,
Bm D
Half my life I lived outdoors.
A Bm
Using skills my father taught me,
G A
On land that edged the open moors.
[Verse 2]
G D
I'd cut the snares of every poacher,
Bm D
Rising hours before the sun.
A Bm
I set traps and planted cover,
G A
And drove the birds towards the guns.
[Verse 3]
G D
I fought in France like half this county,
Bm D
With all the skills I brought from home.
A Bm
I set traps and laid the wires,
G A
Til the earth grew red as Devon's own.
[Break]
G D Bm A
[Verse 4]
G D
July the first, nineteen sixteen,
Bm D
We early rose, passed round the rum.
A Bm
The whistles blew and we broke cover,
G A
And walked in line towards the guns.
G A
We walked towards those waiting guns.
[Break]
G D Bm A
[Verse 5]
G D
Back on the land, I hire the beaters,
Bm D
And when the glorious twelfth has come.
A Bm
We stand in line, we wait in silence,
G A
And walk once more towards the guns.
[Refrain]
G A
We walk towards the waiting guns.
G A
We walk towards the waiting guns.
G A A
We walk towards the waiting guns.
[Outro]
G D
In Devonshire I was a Keeper
