[E] There's a fella called the Gunner McGee.
[Em] He's 78 and a spry as a [A] two-year-old.
Regarding rivers, [Am] he's a mine of useless information.
Did you know, for instance, that the [Bm] River Pottle flows under the Olympia Theatre [Am] and Dublin Castle?
And did you [A] know that the Tolga ends [D] up in Port Marnock?
Of course you [Am] didn't.
[G] He'd a-da-doe.
[Am] Well, his own favourite is the Dargal.
[A]
When the sun it went down [E] in old Dublin [A] town, and the moon took me out [E] for a gargle,
[A] In me old Sam [D] Brown belt [A] and a brimmer of felt, I'd go down by the banks of [E] the [A] Dargal.
I was only [D] a boy, [A] and me gun was a toy, and how I grew up [E] was a marvel,
[A] But history [D] was made [A] of the games that we played down by the old [E] River [A]
Dargal.
[A] It's one, two [D] and three, [A] I'm the Gunner McGee, and I live by me wits [E] and the gargle,
[A] Yet it's hain though [D] a three, [A] say a small glory be, for McGee and the boys of [E] the [A] Dargal.
When the rising [E] went down in old [A] Dublin town, there was none took me out [E] for a gargle,
[A] And the men in [D] the street, [A] they just spit through their teeth at McGee and the boys of the [E] [A]
Dargal.
They could not [D] understand [A] all the fine things we planned, it made Lloyd George stand [E] back and marvel,
[A] And they talked of [D] their pride while [A] James Connolly died, for the dreams that we dreamed on the [E]
[A] Dargal.
It's one, two [D] and three, [A] I'm the Gunner McGee, and I live by me wits and [E] the gargle,
[A] Yet it's hain though a [D]
three, say [A] a small glory be, for McGee and the boys [E] of the [A]
Dargal.
When the sun it goes down [E] in old Dublin [A] town, and the moon takes me out for [E] a gargle,
I [A] go down by a [D] drain full [A] of rubbish and shame, there once was the proud [E] River [A] Dargal.
So it's one, two [D] and three, [A] I'm the Gunner McGee, no longer a threat, [E] not a [Bm] marvel,
Sure [A] what's happened to [D] me, [A] is the same thing you see, has happened to the proud River [E] [A] Dargal.
It's one, two [D] and three, [A] I'm the Gunner McGee, and I live by me wits [E] and the gargle,
[B] [A] Yet it's hain though [D] a three, say [A] a small glory be, for McGee and the boys of the [E]
[A] Dargal.
