We're called the Sands family, we're all one family.
So if you see us arguing or fighting or kicking each other in the ankles, that explains it.
But this is our sister Anya here.
Over the far side is Colm, and Benny's sitting down tonight because his leg gets sleepy.
_ My name's Tommy, if you want to send me any threatening letters or anything.
_ _ Anya's going to sing a song, it comes from Dona Goal, it's a translation of a very old Irish song.
It's called Dona Loag. _ _

_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ [A] You will sleep _ _ [E] with the Greek [A] king's daughter
_ _ _ I saw you _ _ first [E] on a [A] Sunday _ _ evening
_ [B] About [D] _
[Em] Easter _ [D] as [A] I was kneeling
_ It was about [C#] Christ's [E] passion _ [D] that I [A] was reading
_ But my eyes were on you and [E] my [A] sad heart bleeding _ _
_ _ Oh Dona _ Loag, you won't find me lazy _
_ _ Not [D] like some _ [E] _
highborn [D] _ expensive [A] lady _ _
I'll do [C#] your moon [E] _ _
[D] and I'll [A] nurse your baby _ _
[D] And [A] if you're set on, _ [E] I'll defend you [A] _ _ bravely _
For you took what's before _ me [E] and [A] what's behind me _
You took [F#m] east and [E] west _ [D] when you [A] wouldn't mind _ me
Sun, [F#m] moon and [E] stars, my [D] _ sky have [A] been taken
_ _ [D] And [A] God as _ well, are [E] I much [A]
mistaken
_ Oh _ _ black as a slough _ [E] is the [A] heart that's in you
_ Black [D] as a [E] coal _ [B] is the [A] grief that binds me
_ Black as a [E] bull _ _ [D] in [A] shining hope _ _
[D] T'was [A] you that blackened it _ [E] forever and [A] always _ _
