Hello boys I've been

Verse 1
away
On a bit of a holiday
To the land where the rivers freely flow
And the cattle roam on the wild callagh
Walking home three parts pissed
I stumbled and fell in the morning mist
I fell and rolled in the hungry grass
That tells the tale of a terrible past
I screamed and ran and dreamt I fell
Down in the depths of a freezing hell
Four million people starved to death
Could smell the curse on
their dying breath
Am 
Where no one ever wants to go
Down in the ground where the dead men go
C 
G 
C 
To hell which is circular all around
Down in the belly of the big cold
ground
The moving shadows were
everywhere
The very trees seemed to bend
and stare
I remembered the dunes
on a Sligo shore
Screamed and ran till I could run no more
Over the fields and across the moor
I ran in the house
and slammed the door
G 
C 
What the hell's that over there
A putrefying corpse sitting
G 
in that chair
C 
Where no one ever wants to go
Am 
Down in the ground where the
C

dead men go
Am 
C 
Been drunk as a skunk since
I've been home
From bar to bar like a ghost
I roamed
I can't forget those things I saw
G 
Am 
Been down with
the devil in the Dalling Road
C

One place I
don't want to go
Down in the ground where the dead men go
