_ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ [E] I am a young fellow that's [C#m] fond of me fun, And for London very is where I begun.
[E] All over the country I [C#m] spend all me cash, With Kitty and Ginny and Mary McNash.
Me father disowned me for being such a [B] wreck, And me spending me time in such prolicem ways.
[E] Me girls they are sweet but I love me [C#m] as I'm low, And me first love in life is a pure whiskey.
[G#m] Really I die, really I die, [C#m] die, really I die, die.
_ [G#] _ _ [C#m] [E] I've a chance for to go to the town of [C#m] Kildare, All the girls all around me they flock and destroy.
Some [E] bring me a bottle and some bring me cake, And they do it behind their own fair parish bag.
There's one from Mohawk and one from [B] Carlisle, And another one from Derry, me heart has beguiled.
[E] But I trade every one for the [C#m] rough of the pier, For me first love is whiskey, the heart it can cure.
Really I die, [G#m] really I die, [C#m] die, really I die, die.
_ [G#] _ _ [C#m] _ [E]
To worry for riches I'm never [C#m] inclined, But the greatest of misers must leave them behind.
With a [E] glass in me hands and a girl on me knee, Is all a man need for his pleasure you see.
For I knew a man who had plenty of [B] gold, For I knew another one who had twenty times more,
[E] But they're both on their pecks among [C#m] nettles and stone.
So me first love in whiskey is the whiskey alone.
Really I die, [G#m] really I die, [C#m] die, really I die, die.
_ _ _ _ [E] And now for the future I mean to [C#m] me wise, When I look for the women that's ready to make [E] time,
I'll marry them all on the [C#m] next market day.
And the clergy agree to the things that I say, And when I am bed and me soul is at [B] rest,
These women will come far to cry at me awake, [E] And they'll cover me over with whiskey [C#m] so pure.
I'll dance on the jello, make couple and cheer.
Really I die, really I die, die, really I die, die.
Really I die, really I [C#] die, die, really I die, die. _
