_ _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _
From a county in a old town, _ [Eb] Came a man of [Bb] great renown, As a sailor and [Gm] a soldier was [C] none _ _ [F] bolder. _
He [Bb] went to America, _ _ At an early age [Eb] they say, _ [Bb] As a cabin boy [F] to sail [G] the wide [Bb] world over. _ _ _
Then [F] adventure took him south, [Dm] To [Eb] the Dela-Lac [Bb]-A-Mouth, San Martín was on [Gm] the route in _ [Cm] Argentina.
_ [F] _ _ _
So [Bb] three whaling ships he bought, And [Eb] Brazil and Spain [Bb] he fought, And freedom then [F] he sought for _ [Bb] Argentina.
[Eb] _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ Now Admiral William Brown, You're [Eb] a man of courage [Bb] shown, And in battle sought, [Gm] The odds were all [Cm] against you.
[F] _ _
But [Bb] your Irish heart was strong, And in memory still [Eb] lives on, [Bb] And in Ireland there [F] are some that don't [Bb] forget [Eb] you.
_ [Bb] _ _
On [F] St.
Patrick's Day it's told, You [Eb] and many _ [Bb] victories polled, You defeated all [Gm] _
invaders, thugs [Cm] and _ bullies.
[F] _ _
_ [Bb] Then to the Pampas rowed, And [Eb] you found a happy [Bb] _
home, Las Islas, _ [F] _
Malvinas, _ [Bb] [Eb] Argentina. _ _ _ _
He had paired of Irish hands, [Eb] In a noble [Bb] gallant band, That helped to free [Gm] the land called [Cm] _ Argentina.
_ [F] _ _
He [Bb] had paired with great acclaim, That patrician [Eb] name and fame, [Bb] When in _ _ [F] 1806 the British came [Bb] for [Eb] slaughter.
_ [Bb] _ _
_ [F] And to this very day, [Eb] In the Argentina [Bb] they say, The English [Gm] ran away from [Cm] Buenos _ _ [F] Aires.
[C] _ [Bb] To the islands further down, And [Eb] they took them [Bb] for the crown, _ Las Islas, [F] _ _
Malvinas, _ [Bb] Argentina. _ _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ We [C] remember William Brown, And [F] as a land of [C] great renown, The _ invader of [Am]
the islands from [Dm] your country.
_ [G] _
_ _ [C] Well in _ _ _ 1833, _ Where by pirates [F] forced to flee, _ [C] And in Ireland sure [G] we know the [C] story fully. _ _
_ _ And [G] the people that went to, To [F] the _ [C] Argentina knew, To save the [Am]
English laws of wars [Dm] and famine. _ _
[G] _ _ [C] They have proved a loyal crew, Just [F] like all the [C] Irish do, Las Islas, _
[G] _ Malvinas, _ [C] Argentina.
[F] _ _
[C] _ _ _ The old colonial days, [F] And the cruel [C] English ways, With our thunder plunder, [Am] We will teach [Dm] the natives.
_ [G] _ _ For [C] the Brits are going to war, Just like Whitelock did [F] before, [C] With her ships and [G] guns and drums and flags [C] and banners.
_ _ _ _ [G] In the empire days of old, [F] When they murdered [C] for the gold, And paraded it [Am] _ around the streets [Dm] of London.
_ _ [G] _ _ Oh [C] no human rights were given, To [F] the natives dead [C] or living, Las Islas, _ [G] _ Malvinas, _ [C] _
Argentina. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ In the Argentina _ he died, _ [F] Father Fahey [C] by his side, _ 57 _ was the year his country [Dm] mourned him.
[G] _ _ _ [C] A hero of the nation, _ He's remembered with [F] _ elation, [C]
Throughout the [G] world where freedom still [C] _ _ [F] _ _ [C] abounds. _
[G] And the southern cross take note, [F] Where bold Willie [C] Boulton wrote, The Irish still [Am] support you _ [Dm] Argentina.
_ _ [G] _ _
With [C] the empire tumbling down, Let [F] no paddies back [C] to crown, Las Islas, _ [G] _ Malvinas, _ [C] Argentina. _ _ _ _ _
With the empire tumbling down, [F] Let no paddies [C] back to crown, _ Las Islas, _ [G] _
Malvinas, _ [C] Argentina.
