Irish Way

C#m
I was roving out one evening
    E                   B
as I came down to Portlaw
C#m
I walked into a dim lit pub
    E           B
and suddenly I saw
C#m
Her cheeks they were so rosy
    E              B
and golden was her hair
A
She had to be an Irish girl
       E                     C#m
‘cause she looked so god damn fair
C#m
She took me by her lovely hand
    E               B
and whispered in my ear
C#m
I`ll guide you up to heaven
   E              B
If you’ll order me a beer
C#m
Seconds later I found myself
       E           B
Beside this pretty lass
A                      E                     C#m
Wanton thoughts in my head and an ale in my glass

E                          B
Hey dear come on, won't to spend a night or two
A              E       B
One for me and one for you
C#m                                        E          B
The truth is that she will fill you up and ask you to pay
      A                                  E               C#m
But I drink my pint and say "fuck off", 'cause that's my Irish way

C#m
When I was a little drunk
E                B
I went to take a piss
C#m                              E        B
When I came back I saw two girls having a French kiss
C#m
The girls they waved me nearer
E          B
Could this really be?
A                        E         C#m
The Irish way is finally dawning on me

C#m                               E                 B
When we drank our final pint, the girls asked me to pay
C#m
They promised me to meet outside
   E             B
At Lower Castles way
C#m
And when they left, I took the bill
    E                 B
The girls have set me up
A                                     C#m
They left me whith an empty purse and sick to the gut

E                          B
Hey dear come on, won't to spend a night or two
A              E       B
One for me and one for you
C#m                                        E          B
The truth is that she will fill you up and ask you to pay
      A                                  E               C#m
