          Em                   D  Em 
It was springtime in Kentucky, 1995, 
          Em                                         D              Em 
Well the sun was hot and the gras was green, it was good to be alive, 
      Am                                      F 
And thousands came from miles around, on the first weekend in May, 
     Em              Am            D 
To cheer the winner home on Derby Day, 
          C  D                Em    D Em 
On Derby Day, It couldn’t be better, 

          Em                          D             Em 
Well the hero of this story, that I bring to you today, 
      Em                                  D            Em 
Is a horse by the name of Thunder Gulch, born in the USA, 
 Am 
Found by Ireland’s Danny O’Burn, 
      F 
And trained by D.Wayne Lucas,  
    Em                Am         D     C Bm A 
And owned by Micheal Tabor from Monaco, 

C      Bm/G        D                 G 
Oh Kentucky, I’ve got you in my heart, 
      C              Bm/G       D   D7 
It’s burning like a fire in my soul, 
C       Bm/G     D              Em 
Oh, Kentucky, I seen it in my dreams, 
          C             D      Em  D C 
That I’m gonna bring a winner home, 
          G             D      G  C D B7  
Yes, I’m gonna bring a winner home, 

Em  D Em 
          Em                             D          Em 
Well the bets came hot and heavy, mainly on Serena Song, 
     Em                             D               Em 
With Afternoon Delights and Timber Country going strong, 
     Am                                F 
The poor old Thunder Gulch was nowhere 25 to 1, 
        Em                    Am            D 
And it seemed that there was nothing to be done, 
              C  D          Em     D Em 
His race was run, oh no it wasn’t! 

      Em                             D                  Em 
To a mighty roar the horses started racing passed the stand, 
      Em                                   D                  Em 
With Serena Song and The Run For The Roses up on The Talking Man, 
        Am                                    F 
At the halfway stage these two were leading then came Sitta Dee, 
      Em               Am            D    C Bm A 
And Thunder Gulch was moving up the field, 

C      Bm/G        D                 G 
Oh Kentucky, I’ve got you in my heart, 
      C              Bm/G       D   D7 
It’s burning like a fire in my soul, 
C       Bm/G     D              Em 
Oh, Kentucky, I seen it in my dreams, 
          C             D      Em  D C 
That I’m gonna bring a winner home, 
          G             D      G  C D B7  
Yes, I’m gonna bring a winner home, 

Em  D Em 
         Em                          D               Em 
Now the race was nearly over just a quarter of a mile, 
 Em                                D               Em 
Serena Song was falling back, The Talking Man has tired, 
       Am 
Then Thunder Gulch began his run. 
      F                         Em               Am 
He’s coming on the outside and no-one could get near him, 
D 
Everyone was cheering, 
     C                  D                G C G 
As Thunder Gulch came flashing past the line, 

C      Bm/G        D                 G 
Oh Kentucky, I’ve got you in my heart, 
      C              Bm/G       D   D7 
It’s burning like a fire in my soul, 
C       Bm/G     D              Em 
Oh, Kentucky, I seen it in my dreams, 
          C             D      Em  D C 
That I’m gonna bring a winner home, 
         G                  D      G  C G 
Yes and now I’ve brought a winner home...
