[C#] _ _ Well, in the merry month of May, no fun me home I started, left the [B] girls in queue,
One nearly broke and had a salute at [C#] Father Dear,
Kissed me darling mother, drank a pint of beer,
Me [B] grief and tears dismantled, and off [C#] to reap the corn and leaf,
Where I was born, so I'd a stout me [B] sword, A banished ghost and goaded the [C#] brun,
Ye pair of bros to wreck the love of the bogs, And frighten all the [B] dogs on the rocky road,
To double and one, to [C#] three, four, five, And to her a tunner down the rocky [B] road,
And all the ways to double and make [C#] for lolly dab,
In Mull and Gard I cried, I rested them, So weary started by [B] day light,
Next morning leading there, He took a drop [C#] of the pure,
To keep me heart and strength, And that's the paddy's [B] cure,
When there is oomph a drink, And they [C#] hear the lastest smile,
Laughing all the while, Me curious [B] child,
With such a heart a-bubbling, They asked [C#] me was I hired,
And wages I required, Till I was [B] almost pired, _
_ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [B] And all the way to double and make [C#] for lolly dab,
In Dublin next arrived, I cried, It's such a pity to be so sure,
[B] And the five of you, A-buffing said he,
Then I [C#] took a stroll, All among the quality,
Under lip a [F#] stowel, In a neat [C#m] locality,
Something crossed me mind, When I looked behind,
A boulder could I [B] find, Upon me stood the [C#] warren,
A choir and half the rogue, Suddenly come the frog,
It wasn't [B] much in bowl, And on the rocky road,
To double and make [C#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
[C#] for lolly dab, From there I got away,
Me spirits never fail, And landed under [B] cave,
Just as the ship was sailing, Captain [C#] at me rowed,
Set not no room hardy, When I jumped aboard,
A [B] cabin full of paddy, [C#] Down among the pigs,
Did some hearty rigs, A-paint some hearty [G#m] jigs,
The water o'er me bowl, And when I [C#m] fully had,
I wished me self was dead, Or better far [B] instead,
On the rocky road, To double and make [C#] for lolly dab,
Up to here and to down, The rocky road,
[B] And [D#] all the ways, To double and make [C#] for lolly dab,
The boys have lived but few, And when me safely landed,
Call me self [B] but few, I could no longer [C#m] stand,
And blood began to boil, Templar I was,
New as in poor, Old Erin's Isle,
[B] They began abusing [C#m] her army, So I'll say my name,
She'll lay me a lip-ply, Call me boys [D#] were fie,
And so I was, A-howling [C#] with a low hurray,
The joy in me a fray, Quickly clear [B] the way,
For the rocky road, To double and make [C#] for lolly dab,
Up to here and to down, [B] The rocky road,
And all the ways, To double and [C#] make for lolly dab. _ _ _ _ _
