Biography:
Real McKenzies is a Celtic punk band founded in Vancouver, Canada in 1992, described as "a guitar-and-bagpipe wailing Celtic punk rock-and-roll". They have set themselves apart from other punk bands by including bagpipes in all of their studio albums and at most of their concerts, much like the similar bands Dropkick Murphys and Flatfoot 56. Their current piper, Matt MacNasty, has been with the band since its release of "Loch'd and Loaded" in 2001.

Real McKenzies – Nessie
[Intro]
G C Am
[Verse 1]
G
Away up in Scotland is the place that's best
C Am
Is a Scottish fjord that they call Loch Ness
G
The loch is so deep there ain't nobody know
C Am
And deep within the loch is a bonnie bonnie creature
G
A long time ago there was a people who knew
C Am
The water and the land and all life is sacred
G
Everybody treated Nessie with respect
C Am
Nobody bothered her swimming in the sea so
Em G C
Swim round so proud and beautiful
[Harmonica Bridge]
G C Am G C Am
[Verse 2]
G
Yeah she squiggled and she squiggled And she frolicked in the sunshine
C Am
She swam into another serpent and they fell in love
G
With the ocean and the highlands and the stars up above
C Am
Why go away there were no reasons
G
Time rolled on about 10,000 years
C Am
The ancient people of the loch began to disappear
G
Some were wiped out, some moved away
C Am
Who could tell that the end was near so
[Chorus]
Em G C
Go now, get down, and swim away
Em G C
But don't you forget to return on a sunny day
G C G
Come on, come on, oh Nessie come on
G Am C
Come on, come on, Loch Ness is where you belong
G C G Am C
So come on, oh Nessie come on, Loch Ness is where you belong
[Bridge]
G C Am G C Am
[Harmonica Bridge]
G C Am G C Am
[Verse 3]
G
Now the people of the world look down in Loch Ness
C Am
And they noticed something big and bumpy swimming all around
G
And the newspapers said, "she couldn't be found"
C Am
So they got the radiomen and the television crew
G
Run Nessie run they're all after you
C Am
Now they've got the helicopters and submarines too
G
If you let them capture you I know what they'll do
C Am
We'll have to pay to see you in an underwater zoo, No!
[Chorus]
Em G C
Go now, get down, and swim away
Em G C
But don't you forget to return on a sunny day
G C G
Come on, come on, oh Nessie come on
G Am C
Come on, come on, Loch Ness is where you belong
G C G Am C
So come on, oh Nessie come on, Loch Ness is where you belong
