_ [D] _ _ _ [A] _ [E] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ Okay, I don't have an accent.
_ _ Play some songs and _ stories
_ Heroes [F#m] of renown _
[A] All the passing jays [D] and _ [A]
glories
[E] That once was Dublin town _
[A] The hallowed [D] halls and _ [A]
alder
_ Parting [F#m] children's rhymes
Heroes [A] of renown
That once was Dublin [D] city _
[A] [E] In the rare _ [A] old time _
_ Ring-a [D]-ring-a _ [A] _
-closing
As the [F#m] lighted light _
[A] I remember Dublin [D] city _
[E] In the rare _ [A] old time
_ Army _ _ name, it [D] is Sean _ [A] Tensey
As Dublin [F#m] as can be
[A] Farm hard and bleak, [D] intimately [A] co [E]-ed
In a house that ceased to be
[A] By trade I [D] was a [A] cooper
Lost out to _ [F#m] redundancy
_ [A] Like my house, it fell to [D] _ [A] progress
By [E] trades of [A] memory
_ _ Ring-a-ring [D]-a _ [A]-rosie
As the lighted [F#m] light
[A] I remember Dublin [D] city
[A] _ [E] In the rare [A] old time
And _ _ _ I cured _ [D] Peggy [A] Dagen
_ As pretty as [F#m] you'd believe
_ [A] A robed child [D] of [A] Mary
[E] From the rebel _ liberties _
_ [A] I lost her to [D] a student [A] chap
With skin as black [F#m] as gold
[A] When he took her off [D] to [A] Birmingham
[E] He took away [A] my soul
_ Ring-a-ring [D]-a [A] _
-rosie
As the lighted [F#m] light
[A] I remember Dublin _ [D] city
[A] [E] In the rare _ [D] [A] old time
_ Other _ _ years have [D] made me [A] bitter
_ The gargoyles dimmed [F#m] me brain
_ [A] For Dublin it keeps [D] on [A] changing
_ [E] _ Nothing seems the same
_ [A] The pillar and [D] the Met have [A] gone
The royal [D] uncivil [F#m] down
While [A] the grey _ [D] unyielding concrete
[A] Makes [E] the city of [A] my town
On your own now, ring-a-ring-a-rosie
Ring-a-ring-a [D] _ _ [A]-rosie
As _
[G#] _ [F#m] _ _ _ [A] the _ _
_ [D] _ _ [A] lighted [E] light
I remember Dublin city
_ [A] So _ _ _ _ pretty well sweet and [D] lively
[A] _
_ I can no [F#m] longer stay
For [A] to watch the new [D] glass cadence
[A]
That [E] spring up [D] along [E] wood peaks
[A] My mind's too full [D] of [A] memory
_ To alter new [F#m] _ gise
I'm [A] a part of what [D] was Dublin
_ [A]
[E] In the rare [A] old time _
_ Ring-a-ring [D]-a _ [A]
-rosie
_ As the lighted [F#m] light _
I [A] remember Dublin _ [D] city
[A]
In [E] the rare [A] _ old time _
