          C                 F                G                    Am
Well I’ve not been honest darling, no I’ve not been straight at all
         C          F                  G                  F
Well, I beg your pardon; the night we jumped McCormack’s Wall
          C            F               G                           Am
I was so happy just to be with you, I would have said anything at all
              C                F
Now I could scream your name, till you do the same,
      G               F
But I know you won’t respond
(slow)
        G                   F
Well, here we are. What’s there to do?
          C           F        G               Am
Dai dal dai, dai dal dai, del dai del dai del do
          C           F              G           F
Dai dal dai, dai dal dai, I’m gonna ride black river
          C           F              G             Am
With the lark in the morning and the dew upon the dawn
         C              F                  G               F
Well, a-home we came a-crawling with our sickness and our song
C                 F                G              Am
For all guitar makers; for the prisoners and the law
           C          F            G                  F
And to the fine wine drinkers who drank their bellies raw
        C              F          G                      Am
And to all the good samaritans, whoever found us in the dark
         C                 F                  G           F
And to all who’ve been or come between the lovers in the park
        C                   F                   G               Am
And to all the Ó Díomasaigh singers with their roots in holy ground
         C              F              G              F
And forgiveness still lingers in the bells above the town
(slow)
        G                   F
Well, here we are. What’s there to do?
          C           F        G               Am
Dai dal dai, dai dal dai, del dai del dai del do
          C           F        G               Am
Dai dal dai, dai dal dai, I’m gonna ride black river
          C           F        G               Am
Dai dal dai, dai dal dai, del dai del dai del do
          C           F              G           F
Dai dal dai, dai dal dai, I’m gonna ride black river
(pause)
            C             F
Well, this is a song of drinking,
            G               Am
And for a drink it will be sung,
          C                       F
And I’ll sing it right, and I’ll say goodnight
                G               F
Unless they're serving another one
