Golden Jubilee chords by The Dubliners

Key: G

  G                         C
Way down in the county Kerry, in a place they call Tralee
          G         D       D7
A grand old couple they lived there, Kate and Pat Magee.
      G               C
They were going to have a party on their Golden Jubilee
   G               D       G
Now Kate she turned to Pat and said listen here to me.

Chorus:
   G                          C
?Put on your old knee-britches and your coat of emerald green,
                   G        D
Take off that hat me darlin' Pat, put on your old caipin.
    G                       C
For today's our Golden wedding and I want you all to know,
   G         C      G   D   G
Just how we looked when we were wed, fifty years ago?.

   G                         C
It?s well that I remember, how we danced on the village green,
                    D         D7
You held me in your arms, dear Pat, and called me your cailin.
   G                         C
Your hair was like a raven's wing but now it's turning grey,
   D      D7          D        G
Come over here me sweetheart dear, and listen to what I say.


Chorus:
   G                          C
?Put on your old knee-britches and your coat of emerald green,
                   G        D
Take off that hat me darlin' Pat, put on your old caipin.
    G                       C
For today's our Golden wedding and I want you all to know,
   G         C      G   D   G
Just how we looked when we were wed, fifty years ago?.


  G                     C
Oh how I do I remember, when first I was you bride,
                    G         D
In the little chapel on the hill, where we stood side by side.
  G                          C
Of good friends we've had many, of troubles we've had few,
          G             D      G
Come over here me sweetheart dear, and here's what we must do.


Chorus:
   G                          C
?Put on your old knee-britches and your coat of emerald green,
                   G        D
Take off that hat me darlin' Pat, put on your old caipin.
    G                       C
For today's our Golden wedding and I want you all to know,
   G         C      G   D   G
Just how we looked when we were wed, fifty years ago?.
