[Cm] [Bb]
[Cm] [G] [Cm]
I was born in a Dublin street [Bb] where the loyal [Gm] drums did beat,
[Cm] And those loving English feet, they walked all over us.
[Eb] And each and every night [Bb] when me da would [Gm] come home tight,
[Cm] He'd invite the [G] neighbours outside [Cm] with his chorus.
Oh, come out ye blackened hands, come [Bb] out and fight me [Gm] like a man,
[Cm] Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders,
[Eb] Tell her how the IRA [Bb] made you run like [Gm] hell away,
[Cm] From the green and [G] lovely lanes of [Cm] Killish Shire.
Oh, come tell her how you slew [Bb] them old arrows two [Gm] by two,
[Cm] Like the Zulus they had spears and bows and arrows,
[Eb] How you bravely fist each one with [Bb] your sixteen [Gm] pounder gun,
[Cm] And you frightened them [G] damn natives to [Cm] the mouth.
Oh, come out ye blackened hands, come [Bb] out and fight me [Gm] like a man,
Show [Cm] your wife how you won medals down in Flanders,
Tell [Eb] her how the IRA [Bb] made you run like [Gm] hell away,
From [Cm] the green and [G] lovely lanes of [Cm] Killish Shire.
Oh, come let us hear you tell how [Bb] you slandered great [Gm] Mornell,
When [Cm] you caught him well and truly persecuted,
[Eb] Where are your sneers and jeers that [Bb] you loudly let [Gm] us hear,
When [Cm] our leaders of [G] sixteen were [Cm]
executed?
Oh, come out ye blackened hands, come out [Bb] and fight me like [Gm] a man,
Show [Cm] your wife how you won medals down in Flanders,
Tell [Eb] her how the IRA made [Bb] you run like hell [Gm] away,
From [Cm] the green and lovely [G] lanes of [Cm] Killish Shire.
