The Pursuit Of Farmer Michael Hayes chords by Planxty

Chords with lyrics

B minorBm
I am a bold undaunted fox
               F# minorF#m
That never yet was trapped or caught
  B minorBm             D MajorD       F# minorF#m
My rent, rates and taxes I was willin' for to pay
 D MajorD        A augmentedA
I made me name in fine good land
  B minorBm           F# minorF#m
Between Tipperary and Knocklong
   D MajorD       A augmentedA
Where my forefathers lived and died
   F# minorF#m       B minorBm
Three thousand years ago

B minorBm
I lived as happy as King Saul
                F# minorF#m
And loved me neighbours one and all
B minorBm          D MajorD        F# minorF#m
Had no animosity for either friend or foe
D MajorD       A augmentedA
Then I was of late betrayed
  B minorBm          F# minorF#m
By one who was a fool I know
   D MajorD       A augmentedA
He told me I should leave the place
   F# minorF#m      B minorBm
And show my face no more

B minorBm
The day that he evicted me
                F# minorF#m
Its then I knew that I should flee
B minorBm            D MajorD
Late one night I took his life
          F# minorF#m
And left him lying low
D MajorD          A augmentedA
He fell victim to a shot
  B minorBm         F# minorF#m
His agency was soon forgot
   D MajorD          A augmentedA
From that day on they're searching
  F# minorF#m      B minorBm
