G C
Well, the angels came to see me today
G C D
Said, "We've taken your racehorse away"
G C
And I believe it was that bookmaker from Crail
G C D
I believe that he put one in her pail
[Verse 2]
G C
And all the finest in the field
G C D
Only measured to her shoulders, they only ever seen her heels
G C
And I believe every sporting man will cry
G C D
I believe to see his income pass him by
[Chorus 1]
Am
She won the Lanark Silver Bell
G
And she stole every heart away
Am C
She stood her stand at sixteen hands and I'd ride her easy
G D G
But they've taken, taken my racehorse away
[Verse 3]
G C
There's a racecourse in the sky
G C D
And that's where all the racing horses must go by and by
G C
And I believe every steward, lord and groom
G C D
I believe that they're calling her home
[Chorus 2]
Am
She would look at me in the eyes
G
And that was all she had to say
Am C
She stood her stand at sixteen hands and I'd ride her easy
G D G
But they've taken, taken my racehorse away
[Otro]
C D G
They've taken my racehorse away
C D G
They've taken my racehorse away
C D G
They've taken my racehorse away
C D G
They've taken my racehorse away
