Brian Flynn Show #3: A Guitar and Good Spirits

Words and chords of The Irish Pub

 

                  AM                      F

Well you’re walking through a city street

    C                G

it could be in Peru

                AM                   F

When you hear a distant calling

               C                         G

and you know it’s meant for you

           AM                          F

so you stop whatever you’re doing

             C                     DM

and you join the merry mob

           AM                        F             G

and before you know just where you are

           AM     DM    AM

you’re in an Irish Pub

CH:

                   C

They’ve got one in Honolulu

they’ve got one in Moscow too

                 AM                 F

they’ve got 4 of them in Sydney

                      C                   G  EM

and there’s a couple in Katmandu

        AM                       F

so whether you sing or pull a pint

           C                  DM

you’ll always have a job

           AM                 F                 G

for wherever you go around the world

          AM        DM  AM

you’ll find an Irish Pub

Now the design is fairly simple

and it’s usually much the same

you’ll have Razor Houghton scoring

in the Ireland England game

and you’ll always know an Irish Pub

the minute you’re in the door

for a couple of boys with bodhrans

will be murderin’ Christy Moore

CH

Now the owner is Norweigan

and the manager comes from Cork

and the lad that’s holdin’ up the bar

says “only eejits work !”

he was born and bred in Bolton

but his mammy is from Kildare

and he’s going to make his fortune soon

and move to County Clare

CH

But now it’s time for me to go

i have to catch my train

so i’ll leave you sittin’ at the bar

and face the wind and rain

but i’ll have that pint you owe me

if I’m not gone on  the dry

when we meet nex

Chords / lyrics – will you go lassie go

              C                     Am                  F                            Em

Oh the summer time is coming and the leaves are sweetly blooming

I will build my love a bower near yon cool crystal fountain

       F      G       Am             Dm                  F

and on it i will place all the flowers of the mountain

             C     F       C

Will you go lassie go etc etc ………..

Where wild mountain thyme grows around the blooming heather

             C     F     C

Will you go lassie go etc…………..
