(D major) (G major) (D major) (A major)
(D major)
Verse 1
There's a (D major) uniform
that's hanging in (G major)
What's known as father's (D major) room
A uniform so simple in it's style (A major)
It (D major) has no braid of gold or silk
No (G major) hat with feathered plume (D major)
Yet me mother has pre
(G major) served it (A major) all the (D major) while
One (G major) day she made me try it on
A (D major) wish of mine for years
"Just in memory of your father dear"
She (B minor) said and (D major) when I put
the Sam Browne on
She was (G major) smiling through her tears (D major)
As she placed the broad black
(G major) Brimmer on (A major) me (D major) head

Verse 2
It's just a (D major) broad black brimmer
With it's (G major) ribbons frayed and (D major) torn
By the careless whisk of
Many's a mountain breeze
An old trench coat that's
All (G major) battle-stained and and (D major) worn
And breeches almost
(G major) threadbare (A major) at the (D major) knees
A Sam (G major) Browne belt with the
(D major) Buckle big and strong
And a holster that's been
Empty many's a (B minor) day
(A major) But when (D major) men claim Ireland's freedom
The (G major) one should choose to lead them
Will (D major) wear the broad black
(B minor) brimmer of the (A major) IRA (D major)
Verse 3
(D major)
It was the uniform being worn
By me (G major) father long ago (D major)
When he reached me mother's
Homestead on the (A major) run
It was the (D major) uniform me father wore
In that (G major) little church be (D major) low
When oul' Father Mac
He (G major) blessed the (A major) pair as (D major) one
And af (G major) ter truce and treaty and
The (D major) parting of the ways
He wore it when he marched
out with the (B minor) rest
And (D major) when they bore his body
Down that (G major) rugged heather braes (D major)
They placed the broad black
(G major) Brimmer on (A major) his (D major) breast
Verse 4
It's just a broad black brimmer (D major)
With it's rib (G major) bons frayed and (D major) torn
By the careless whisk of
Many's a mountain breeze
An old trench coat that's
All (G major) battle-stained and and (D major) worn
And breeches almost
(G major) threadbare (A major) at the (D major) knees
A Sam (G major) Browne belt with the
(D major) Buckle big and strong (B minor) (A major)
(D major) And (G major) (D major) (B minor) (A major) (D major) a
(G major) (D major)
(A major) (D major) (G major) (D major)

Empty many's a (B minor) day (Not for long)
But when (D major) men claim Ireland's freedom
The (G major) one should choose to (D major) lead them
Will wear the broad black brimmer of the (A major) IRA (D major)
