No More Paddys Lament chords by Flogging Molly

verse 1

         B                            F#m
Wipe the blood from your lip with the flesh of your hand
           B                         A
There's no thorn in the side left to grow
         B                           F#m
So let's cherish the names that were lost for an age
         D           A           B
With the rue now the supper must go
         B                          F#m
Where traditions they blend lives a home on the mend
    B                          A
The grass glistens now for all fights
         B                       F#m
So let's sever the shame we have come to reclaim
         D         A              B
With the water's retreat feel the shore

Pre-Chorus 1

         E5                   A                    B
When the red rose pales lay a thousand graves many more
           E5                         A                      F#m
Though the ghost still haunts for the day we've come to live for


           D                A
Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved
    F#m                         A
The exiled are home where their souls are kept safe
        D           A
Take me back on the crest of a wave
        B              A         B
No more tears for your paddy's lament
        D
No more tears
        A
No more paddy's
  B
Lament

verse 2
        B                                F#m
Rip the greed from his heart, there's no sorrow tonight
        B                           A
For now once paddy's dreams sleep divine
          B                      F#m
Where the silence ya hear is the prosper we share
         D          A           B
The only blade is a razor sharp smile

Pre-Chorus 2
          E5                   A                           B
Still the church bell rings to collect the sins that still roam
        E5                     A                    F#m
But the only thing lost is the pain of nothing once more


           D                A
Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved
    F#m                         A
The exiled are home where their souls are kept safe
        D           A
Take me back on the crest of a wave
        B              A         B
No more tears for your paddy's lament
        D
No more tears
        A
No more paddy's
  B
Lament

verse 3
         B                  N.C.
Grab the leaf of the branch from the tree in its ground
        B                         N.C.
Where the roots claimed the earth many toiled
          B               N.C.
To a land that now stands under no one's command
        D          A         B
And her beauty let no man destroy
     B                      F#m
So remember the gun and the damage it's done
         B                                 A
The last drop has been spilled for you and I
          B                     F#m
Let there be no despair for the rule we once shared
          D             A              B
Brush the tear from the eye that still shines

Pre-Chorus 1
         E5                   A                    B
When the red rose pales lay a thousand graves many more
           E5                         A                      F#m
Though the ghost still haunts for the day we've come to live for


           D                A
Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved
    F#m                         A
The exiled are home where their souls are kept safe
        D           A
Take me back on the crest of a wave
        B              A         B
No more tears for your paddy's lament
        D
No more tears
        A
No more paddy's
  B
Lament

           D                A
Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved

The exiled are home where their souls are kept safe
        D           A
Take me back on the crest of a wave
        B              A         B
No more tears for your paddy's lament
        D
No more tears
        A
No more paddy's
