Intro: Am  E  Am   D   G 

verse 1 
 
  B7                  Em 
I saw him at my local folk club  
         C                   G 
With his brand new Martin guitar  
B7                     Em 
Pony-tailed hair and a challenging stare  
     A7                      D 
That told me he'd like to go far  
   B7                      Em 
He hammered out songs in E Minor  
      C                 B7 
Broke many a pick and a string  
     E7                  A 
Till someone requested a song tried and tested  
     D        A7         D 
That everyone else could sing  

And he said  

     G 
It's too Daniel O'Donnell  
                         C  E 
Too Daniel O'Donnell for me  
     Am 
If I sing Daniel O'Donnell  
     D             G 
I'll lose credibility  

I can sing Garbutt or Bogle  
                        C   E 
Or songs of the life at sea  
       Am 
But if I sing Daniel O'Donnell  
     D                 G 
I'll never get paid my fee  

 
verse 2 
 
    B7                   Em 
For years he did all the floor spots  
    C                 G 
But hardly a penny he made  
       B7                     Em 
He was always out looking for that special booking  
     A7                     D 
That told him he'd made the grade  
   B7                    Em 
He tried the cittern and bodhrán  
        C                  B7 
Then he took to the didgeridoo  
          E7                         A 
'Till one night playing celtoid, someone, very annoyed, actually said:  
 N.C. 
'Please leave our stage, you're through, your celtoid is: 
 
G 
Too Daniel O'Donnell  
                         C  E 
Too Daniel O'Donnell for me  
       Am 
If you sing Daniel O'Donnell  
       D             G 
You'll lose credibility  

You can sing Garbutt or Bogle  
                        C   E 
Or songs of the life at sea  
       Am 
But if you sing Daniel O'Donnell  
       D                   G    Am  E  Am   D   G 
You'll never get paid your fee 
 

verse 3 
 
    B7                  Em 
And then just yesterday evening  
     C                  G 
At a western night in a bar  
         B7                        Em 
With his shiny gelled hair and his new rhinestone glare  
A7                   D 
I saw our old folkie star  
   B7                         Em 
He flat-picked his songs in G major  
    C                      B7 
And introduced each of his band  
         E7                   A 
Till someone interested, went up and requested:  
         D   N.C. 
'Please, can you sing No Man's Land'  

But he said:  

     G 
It's too Garbutt or Bogle  
                         C  E 
Too Garbutt or Bogle for me  
     Am 
If I sing Garbutt or Bogle  
     D             G 
I'll lose credibility  

I can sing Daniel O'Donnell 
               C   E 
Ever so tunefully  
       Am 
But if I sing Garbutt or Bogle  
     D                 G 
I'll never get paid my fee  
        Am 
Yes, if I sing Garbutt or Bogle  
         D                    G 
It could just be the death of me
