Intro 1
(G major) (C major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(C major) Raised
Verse 1
(G major)
on songs and (C major) stories
(G major) Heroes of renown (E minor)
The passing (G major) tales and (C major) glories
(G major) That once (D major) was Dublin town (B minor)
The (D major) (G major) hallowed halls and house (C major) s,
(G major) the haunting children's rhymes (E minor)
That once (G major) was Dublin City (C major)
in (G major) the (D major) rare old (G major) times
Ring -a -ring -a (C major) -rosie, (G major)
as the light de (E minor) clines
I'll re (G major) member Dublin city
(C major) in (G major) (B minor) the (D major) rare round times (G major)
My name, it is Sean (C major) Denham, (G major) see,
As Dublin as could be (E minor)
Born hard (G major) and late in (C major) Pimlico
(G major) In a (D major) house that ceased to be (B minor)
By (D major) trade (G major) I was a (C major) coupon
Lost (G major) out to redundancy (E minor)
Like my (G major) house that fell to progress (C major)
(G major) My (D major) trade's a lorry (G major)
Ring -a -ring -a (C major) -rosie,
(G major) as the light de (E minor) clines
I remem (G major) ber Dublin city
(C major) in (G major) the (D major) rare old (G major) times
And I courted Peggy (C major) Dignan,
(G major) as pretty as you please (E minor)
A (G major) rogue, a child of (C major) Mary, (G major)
from the (D major) rebel
Liberties (B minor)
(D major) I lost (G major) her to a stu (C major) dent chap
(G major) With skin as black as coal (E minor)
When he (G major) took her off to (C major) Birmingham
(G major) He (D major) took away my soul (G major)
(D major) Ring (G major) -a -ring -a (C major) -rosie
(G major) As the light de (E minor) clines
I remem (G major) ber Dublin city
(C major) in (G major) the (D major) rare of times (G major)
The years have made me (C major) bitter (G major)
The gargles dimmed me (E minor) brain
Cause (G major) Dublin keeps on changing (C major)
(G major) And (D major) nothing seems the (B minor) same
The (D major) pil (G major) lar and the (C major) net have gone, (G major)
the rile all since pulled (E minor) down,
As the (G major) grey all -yielding con (C major) crete
makes (G major) a (D major) city of my town. (G major) (D major) (G major)
Ring -a -ring -a (C major) -rosie, (G major)
as the light declines, (E minor)
I remem (G major) ber Dublin City
(C major) in (G major) the (D major) rare of (G major) times
So fare thee well, sweet Annelippi (C major)
(G major) I can no longer stay (E minor)
To watch (G major) the new glass cages
(C major) that (G major) spring (D major) up along Wood Key
(B minor) My (D major) mind's (G major) too full of (C major) memories, (G major)
too old to hear new (E minor) chimes
I'm a part (G major) of what was Dublin (C major)
in (G major) the (D major) rare old times (G major)
Ring -a -ring -a (C major) -rosie, (G major)
as the light declines (E minor)
I remem (G major) ber Dublin city
(C major) in (G major) the (D major) rare of times.
(G major) (C major)
