Chords with lyrics
C majorC FF
Well, I?ve not been honest, darlin',
G+G A minorAm
No, I?ve not been straight at all.
C majorC FF
Well, I beg your pardon;
G+G FF
The night we jumped McCormack?s Wall
C majorC FF
I was so happy just to be with you
G+G A minorAm
I would have said anything at all.
C majorC
Now I could scream your name
FF
Till you do the same,
G+G FF
But I know you won?t respond
G+G
Well, here we are.
FF
What?s there to do?
C majorC FF G+G A minorAm
La din da...
C majorC FF
La din da...
G+G FF
I?m gonna ride black river
C majorC FF
With the lark in the morning
G+G A minorAm
And the dew upon the dawn,
C majorC FF
Well, a-home we came a-crawling
G+G FF
With our sickness and our song
C majorC FF
For all guitar makers;
G+G A minorAm
for the prisoners and the law;
C majorC FF
And to the fine wine drinkers
G+G FF
Who drank their bellies raw;
C majorC FF
And to all the good samaritans,
G+G A minorAm
Whoever found us in the dark;
C majorC
And to all who?ve been
FF
Or come between
G+G FF
The lovers in the park;
C majorC FF
And to all the Ó Díomasaigh singers
G+G A minorAm
With their roots in holy ground.
C majorC FF
And forgiveness still lingers
G+G FF
In the bells above the town.
G+G
Well, here we are.
FF
What?s there to do?
C majorC FF G+G A minorAm
La din da...
C majorC FF
La din da...
G+G FF
I?m gonna ride black river
C majorC FF G+G A minorAm
La din da...
C majorC FF
La din da...
G+G FF
I?m gonna ride black river
C majorC FF
Well, this is a song of drinking,
G+G A minorAm
And for a drink it will be sung,
C majorC FF
And I?ll sing it right, and I?ll say goodnight ?
G+G FF
Unless they're serving another one
