No, I'm sure you've heard the storytale of the day when Johnny fell,
But here's a side of the story, boys, you might not know so well.
When the hullabaloo was over, the night at the castle bar,
[A] He said when the [B] fifth corporate had to bury [E] Johnny [Em] Tarr.
[E] We rolled him out the door to the morgue at Bishopstown,
We'd asked him if the decree made him of the coroner war-a-frown,
He sadly shook his head and said, your plan won't work so well,
[A] There's so much [B] booze inside his veins he'll blow his [E] days to hell.
[A] So if it starts a-raining, [E] the thunder rumbles loud,
[A] Johnny's falling up in heaven, [B] landed on a cloud,
His [C#m] tears are falling as he [B] laughs, for he knows that when you die [A] in the big pub,
[F#] Way up in the [B] sky, you'll never ever ever [F#] ever ever [E] drink and cry.
Well, we finally got him out the door and popped him against the wall,
We couldn't find a big enough purse to carry him at all,
We rolled him to Coke Harbour for a burying at sea,
[A] He phoned the [B] Irish Navy, they'd all gone [E] home for tea.
[A] So if it starts a-raining, [E] the thunder rumbles loud,
[A] Johnny's falling up in heaven, [B] landed on a cloud,
[C#m] His tears are falling as he [B] laughs, for he knows that when you die [A] in the big pub,
[B] Way up in the sky, you'll never ever ever [F#] ever ever [E] drink and cry.

So with more we slowly rolled him to the pub where he lived and died,
We went in to drown the sorrows and we left the corpse outside,
We stumbled out at sunrise, he was white as any sheet,
[A] There was Johnny [B] frozen solid in the middle of [E] the street,
So we covered him in concrete, and forever more he'll stand,
A pigeon on his bald, he had an acquaintance in his hand,
The passers-by all give a shout to the Saint of Lagerlout,
[A] Please treat him as a roundabout, your man named [E] Johnny Tarr.
[A] Please treat him as a roundabout, [B] your man named [E] Johnny Tarr.
