Verse 1
(C major) (G major) (C major) 1869 being (G major) the date of the (C major) year,
All the Waterloo sportsmen (F major)
they (G major) all did appear,
To (C major) win the great prize and
to (F major) bear it a (C major) wha,
Never counting on (G major) Ireland
and Master Mc (C major) Grath.
(G major) An (C major) d when they arrived there
in (G major) big London town, (C major)
All the great English sportsmen (A minor)
they (G major) all gathered (B minor) round. (G major)
One (C major) of the gentlemen gave a (G major) ha -ha.
(C major) Is that the grey (G major) dog you call
Master McGrath? (C major) (G major)
(C major) Lord Norgan stepped for (G major) ward
and he said, gentlemen,
(C major) if there's any amon (F major) g you
have (G major) money to spend.
Where (C major) great English greyhound,
I (F major) don't care a (C major) straw.
Five thousand to (G major) one
upon Master McGrath. (C major) (G major)
(C major) White Rose stood uncovered, (G major)
the great English pride, (C major)
Her trainer and (A minor) owner
were (G major) both by her side,
They led (C major) her away,
and the crowd they (G major) roared, (C major)
For the pride of all (G major) England
and Master Mc (C major) Grath.
As Rose and the (G major) Master,
they both ran along, (C major)
I wonder, says Rose,
(A minor) what took you from (G major) your home?
You should (C major) have stayed there
in your Ir (F major) ish domain
(C major) Not come to gain (G major) loddles on Albion's (C major) plain
I know, MacGraw,
(G major) we have wild heather mob (C major) s
But you'll find in all Ireland
(F major) we have (G major) good men and dogs
Lead (C major) on, bold Britannia,
give (F major) none of your job
(C major) Stuff that up your nostrils, (G major)
(C major) says (G major) Mas (C major) ter MacGraw
The hair she laid on (G major) was a beautiful view
(C major) As swift as the (A minor) wind,
o 'er the green (G major) fields she flew
He jumped (C major) at her back,
and he held up his paw
Three cheers for the (G major) li onesses,
master! (C major)
I've known many grey (G major) hounds
that fill me with pride
(C major) In the days that are gone,
(A minor) and it can (G major) 't be denied
But the (C major) greatest and the bravest
that the world (F major) ever (C major) saw
But (G major) our champion (G major) love champions,
they must (C major) earn the gold.
