Chords for Flogging Molly - What's Left of the Flag (Live, Warped Tour).mpg

_ I grew up in a very very very violent country _ _ [Eb] there's a place [G] called Ireland _
_ _ and we _ [Fm] still have a lot of [G] problems over there but I'd like to dedicate this song
to a man who died many many years ago he was my [Ab] father the late great [G] Richard
King and _ [Gm] this is one thing he told me about Vancouver he said to me he said you
know what doesn't matter what color a fucking flag is [G] Dave whether it's green
[Gm] white or orange red white [G] or blue _ or red white and red with a big maple leaf in
the middle it doesn't fucking matter _ _ the only car the only color of flag needs is
the color of freedom that's it _ _ his _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
eyes they closed [C] and his last [G] breath spoke he
had seen [Em] all to be _ seen a [G] life once full [C] now an empty [G] vase with the blossoms on
his ear the gray _ _ walk [C] _ away me boy [G] walk away

_ _ [G] _ _ _ this place is ruined and we've finished part of it we'll fill it with hate
and [Em] I'm the hard side [G] where I think I'm screwed
[C] so the [G] thought is my _ spiderwebs gonna fill my lungs back
but there are many ways [C] to kill a [G] mother's pain
they may have a [Em] choice for it
[G] so I'm gonna fight
[C] I'm a [G] shapeless guy who fucking shouts [D] when I [G] talk to brother
[C] walk away me [G] boys walk [Em] away me boys
we're going in [D] with a prayer
