Subject: Chords Add: THE OLD DUN COW
Okay, here's how I do it (with somewhat different words--I copied these from the DT):
  Verse:
Am Am
Some friends and I in a public house
Am Am
Were playing dominoes one night
Am Dm Am Dm
When into the room a fireman came,
Dm Dm E
His face all chalky white
Am Am
"What's up?" says Brown, "Have you seen a ghost?"
Am Am
"Have you seen your Aunt Moriah?"
Am Dm Am Dm
"Oh my Aunt Moriah be buggered," says he,
E E
"The bleeding pubs on fire"

Chorus:
Am Am
Oh, there was Brown, up side down
Am Am
Mopping up the whiskey on the floor
Am Dm Am Dm
"Booze, booze" the firemen cried
Dm Dm E
As they come a knockin' at the door
Am Am
"Well don't let em in till it's all mopped up
Am E
Somebody shouted, "MacIntyre"
Am Dm Am Dm
And we all got blue blind paralytic drunk
E E
When the Old Dun Cow caught fire

(Last line:)
E Am
When the Old Dun Cow caught fire
