Introduction:
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
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
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
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
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
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
