[Intro]

[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

[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

B        E
 For the darlin' boys,
they trapped on the river

And darlin' boys made

 shine in the night
A
Nobody did it like

the darlin' boys

When the time of the

 moon was ri-iight

When it came to the
 old ban-jooo

When it came to

Well the darlin' boys,

When it came to
