   G  Dsus2 Dsus2/F#  Dsus2/B  Asus4

1st Verse:
G                 Dsus2      G      Dsus2/F#
A've ay worked on farms an' fae the start
     G     Dsus2  Dsus2/B   Asus4(repeat 
progressions)
The muckle horses won ma heart
Wi' big broad backs they proudly stand
The uncrowned kings o' aw the land
Dsus2/B     Dsus2/F#    G       Dsus2/B
An' yet for aw their power and strength
G              Dsus2/B   G        Asus4
They're as gentle as a summer's wind

Chorus:
Dsus2/F#  Asus4     Dsus2
So steady boys walk on
Dsus2/F#      G     Asus4
Oor work is nearly done
G       Dsus2/B      Dsus2/F#     G
No more we'll till or plough the fields,
Dsus2/F#     G        Asus4
The horses' day is gone
G        Dsus2/B     Dsus2/F#      G
An' this will be oor last trip home,
Dsus2/F#    Asus4    Dsus2
So steady boys walk on.

Riff: Dsus2 (pluck strings: D, G, B, G, but pull off on the 2nd G)
