The Irish Roar

Key: Dm Intro: Dm Verse 1: Dm Fair auld pride for the county I Dm Was called upon to lead Dm Was born and bred with a braisened head Dm By a wild Atlantic sea Dm Through fear we ride and death we stride Dm And face a life of toil Dm We're marching on where we belong Dm On Ireland's rugged soil Dm So run and power on and power on Dm And follow me Bb I'll bring you to the light C In through the fight Dm As men we live and bleed Dm So fear be gone and blood be on Dm Our tweed and garments wore Dm And men will pray and rue the day Dm They hear the Irish roar
