Verse 1
I'll tell you a story that (A minor)
happened to me
(C major) One (G major) day I went down to a cork by (E minor) the sea
The (A minor) sun it was hot and the (C major) day it was warm
(G major) Says (A minor) I in quick pint, (E minor)
mm, won't (F major) do me (D major) no harm
(A minor) I went in and he asked for
a bottle of stout
(C major) Says the (G major) barman, I'm sorry,
all the beer is (E minor) sold out
Try (A minor) whiskey or patty, ten (C major) years in the (G major) wood
No, says (A minor) I, I'll try cider (E minor) ,
I've (F major) heard it was good (A minor)
Oh never, oh never, oh never again
Not even (G major) lift to a hundred
or a hundred and (E minor) ten
I (A minor) fell to the floor and I couldn't (C major) get (G major) up
After (A minor) drinking one (E major) pint
of the (F major) Johnny (G major) Jump (A minor) Up
After downing me third,
I went out in the yard
(C major) Where I (G major) bumped into Brody,
the big civic guard
(E minor) Come (A minor) here to me, boy,
don't you (C major) know I'm the (G major) law?
Well, I (A minor) upped with my fist
(E minor) and I (F major) shattered (G major) his jaw
(A minor) He fell to the ground
with his knees doubled up
But (G major) it wasn't I hit him,
it was Johnny Jump -Up
The (A minor) next thing I remember
down in (C major) Cork -by -the -Sea
(G major) Was a (A minor) cripple on (E minor) crutches
and (F major) says he (G major) to me
(A minor) I'm afraid of me life,
I'll be hit by a car
(C major) Why won't you (G major) help me
across to the Slattery's (E minor) bar?
After (A minor) downing a quart
of that (C major) cider so sweet
(G major) He (A minor) threw down (E minor) his crutches
and (F major) danced (A minor) on his feet
Two, three, four!
And never, and never, and never again
I never (G major) lived to a hundred
or a hundred and ten
(E minor) For I (A minor) fell to the floor and
I couldn't (C major) get (G major) up
After (A minor) drinking four pint (E minor) s
of the (F major) Johnny (G major) Jumper
(A minor) (F sharp minor) (E major) (D major)
(E major) (F sharp minor) (E major) (D major) (E major)
(A major) (E major) (A major) (D major) (E major) (A major) (E major) (A major)
(D major) (E major)
(F sharp minor) (E major) I (A minor) went up the Lee Road, a friend for the sea
They called (G major) it the Madhouse
down in Cork by the sea
But (A minor) when I did get there,
sure the (C major) truth I would tell
(G major) They had (A minor) this poor bug (E minor) ger
locked (F major) up in (G major) a (A minor) cell
Says cigar -testing him,
say these words if you can
Around (G major) the rugged rock,
the ragged rascal went home
Tell (A minor) him I'm not crazy,
tell (C major) him I'm not mad
(G major) It was (A minor) only 70 (E minor) pints of the (F major) cider I had
(A minor) Two, three, four!
And never, and never, and never again
Not even (G major) if to a hundred
or a hundred and (E minor) ten
For I (A minor) fell to the floor
I (C major) couldn't get (G major) up after (A minor) drink
ing few pint (E minor) s
Of the (F major) Johnny (G major) Jump (A minor) -Up (B minor)
Well, (A minor) a man died in the mines
by the name of McNab (C major)
They washed (G major) him and laid him
outside on a slab (E minor)
And (A minor) after the parlor's
meas (C major) urements to (G major) take,
his wife (A minor) brought him home
(E minor) for (F major) bloody (G major) fine wake.
(A minor) It was twelfth noon
and the beer went all high
(C major) and (G major) up says the corpse
and says with (F major) a sigh, (E minor)
(G major) I (A minor) can 't go to heaven,
they (C major) won't let me up
(G major) until they (A minor) bring them a pint
(E minor) of the (F major) Johnny (E minor) Jump (A minor) -Up.
Oh never, oh never, oh never again
Not even (G major) if to a hundred
or a hundred and (E minor) ten
For I (A minor) fell to the floor
and I (C major) couldn't get (G major) up
After (A minor) drinking some pint (E minor) s
of the (F major) Johnny (G major) Jump (A minor) Up
So if you ever go down a cork by the sea
Stay (G major) away from the aisle house,
untidy it from me
(E minor) If you (A minor) want to stay sane,
don't you (C major) dare take one (G major) sip
Of the (A minor) Devil
Drink cider (E minor) called (F major) Johnny (G major) Jump (A minor) Up
Oh, oh never, oh never, oh never again
I never (G major) lived to a hundred,
or a hundred and (E minor) ten
For I (A minor) fell to the floor
I couldn't (C major) get (G major) up after (A minor) drinking a (E minor) quart
Of the (F major) Johnny (G major) Jump (A minor) Up (F sharp minor) (E major) (D major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (E major) (D major)
(E major) (A major) (E major) (A major) (D major) (A major) (D major) (A major)
(E major)
(A major) (D major) (A major) (D major) (F sharp minor) (E major)
(D major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (E major) (D major)
(E major) (A major) (D major) (A major)
(D major) (E major) (F sharp minor) (E major) (F sharp minor)
