G
(início)
G C G In the sweet county Limerick one cold winter's night G C D7 All the turf fires were burning when I first saw the light G C G And a drunken old midwife went tipsy with joy G C D7 As she danced round the room with her slip of a boy
Refrain
D7 G C G G D7 G Singin' bainne na mbo is an gamh-na, and the Juice of the Barley for me
Verse 2
G C G Well when I was a gossoon of eight years old or so G C D7 With me turf and me primer to school I did go G C G To a dusty old school house without any door G C D7 Where lay the school master blind drunk on the floor
Verse 3
G C G At the learning I wasn't such a genius I'm thinking (I wasn't much for poetry, either) G C D7 But I soon beat the master entirely at drinking G C G Not a wake or a wedding for ten miles around G C D7 But meself in the corner was sure to be found
Refrain
G C G G D7 G Singin' bainne na mbo is an gamh-na, and the Juice of the Barley for me
Verse 4
G C G One Sunday the priest thread me out from the altar G C D7 Saying you'll end your days with your neck in a halter; G C G And you'll dance a fine jig between heaven and hell G C D7 And his words they did frighten me the truth for to tell
Verse 5
G C G So the very next morning as the dawn it did break G C D7 I went down to the vestry the pledge for to take G C G And there in that room sat them priests in a bunch G C D7 Round a big roaring fire drinkin' tumblers of punch
Refrain
G C G G D7 G Singin' bainne na mbo is an gamh-na, and the Juice of the Barley for me
Verse 6
G C G Well from that day to this I have wandered alone G C D7 I'm a jack of all trades and a master of none G C G With the sky for me roof and the earth for me floor G C D7 And I'll dance out me days drinking whiskey galore
Refrain
G C G G D7 G Singin' bainne na mbo is an gamh-na, and the Juice of the Barley for me G C G G D7 G Singin' bainne na mbo is an gamh-na, and the Juice of the Barley for me
