Biography:
Old Blind Dogs is a musical group which plays Celtic folk and traditional Scottish folk music, with influences from rock, reggae and Middle Eastern music rhythms. The three founding members of the band (Ian F. Benzie, Buzzby McMillan and Jonny Hardie) first met during a so-called "buskers' holiday" in the Scottish Highlands in 1990, and after playing together for the summer decided to call themselves "Old Blind Dogs". Dave Francis and Carmen Higgins joined the band soon afterwards

Old Blind Dogs - Broken Ring
[Intro]

[Verse 1]
A lady stood in the garden
C G
When a gentleman came riding by
He stepped up to her, tried to woo her
D G
And said, "Fair maid, fancy I"
[Verse 2]
"Oh, kind sir, I am a servant
C G
A servant girl, all froo and free
Never to part and never to marry
D G
For my true love is far at sea"
[Verse 3]
"It's seven long years, since I lived true love
C G
Seven years since he left to sea
And seven more, I'll wait upon him
D G
For if he lives, he'll return to me"
[Verse 4]
"If he's alive, I wish to see him
C G
If he's dead, I wish him rest
Even if he's wed, I hope he's happy
D G
For he was the man I loved him the best"
[Instrumental]
G C G
G C G
[Verse 5]
He pulled his hand out of his pocket
C G
His fragile hands were thin and small
Showed her the ring they broke between them
D G
And when she saw, down she did fall
[Verse 6]
He stooped down to her, his love he lifted
C G
And then he gave her kisses three
"I'm your true love, your missing soldier
D G
And I've come home to marry thee"
[Verse 7]
And so this pair, they did get married
C G
And lived happy there, I true believe
Lived out his life and loved his wife
D G
And bid farewell to the rolling sea
