[Guitar melody]
(A minor) I was born on a Dublin street
where the (G major) Royal drums the beat
And those (A minor) loving English feet
they walked all over us
And (C major) every single night
when me da' (G major) would come home tight (E minor)
He'd in (A minor) vite the neighbors (G major) out with this (A minor) chorus
Chorus 1
Come out (A minor) ye black and tans,
come out and (G major) fight me like a man
Show your wife (A minor) how you won medals
down in Flanders
Tell her how (C major) the IRA
made you (G major) run like hell away (E minor)
From the (A minor) green and lovely lanes (G major)
of Killas (A minor) shandra

Come (A minor) let us hear you tell
how you (G major) slandered great Parnell
When you fought (A minor) them well

Come (A minor) tell us how you slew
them old (G major) Arabs two by two
Like the Zu (A minor) lus they had spears,

And you fright (A minor) ened them
damn (G major) natives to their marrow (A minor)

Now the (A minor) time is coming fast
and I (G major) think them days are here
When each (A minor) English yeoman

With a verse (A minor) or two of
(G major) singing this fine (A minor) chorus
