I[C] was lured by the rockin horse,sweets and bualadh bos,
[F]Fifty wild boys to a[C] room,
[Am]Sing lamh,lamh aile,the[G] dish ran away with the[C] spoon,
Black[C] shoes and stockings for thoes who say dont,
[F]Blue is the colour out[C]side,
[Am]God made the world,the[G] snake tempted Eve and she[C] died,
[Em]Wild Christian brothers[Am] sharpening their leathers,
[G]Learn it by heart that's the[C] rule,
All[C] I remember is[G] dreading September and[C] school.
 
And they[G] made me for better or[C] worse,
The[F] fool that I[C] am or the[Am] wise man I'll[D] be,
A nd they[G] gave me their blessings or[C] curse,
It[F] wasn't their[C] fault I was[Am] me,[G]not the one that you[C] see.
 
The priest in confession condems my obsession,
With thoughts that I do not invite,
I mumble and stutter,he slams the shutter,goodnight,
Stainless as steel you know how I feel,
Someone shoot me while my soul is clear,
I dont think Ill last,but my vow to abstain was sincere,
Arch-confraternity men to the fight,
Rase up your banners on high,
Searching for grace,securing my place when I die.
And they made me,,,,,,,,
[Next part spoken]
 
God[G] kept a very close eye on me
Hung round my bed in the darkness he spied on me,
Cought me in the long grass so oftem he died on me.
 
Ballromes of romance in Salthill and Mallow,
I stood like John Wayne by the wall,
Lined up like cattle we wait to do battle and fall,
You cant wine and dine her in an old Morris Minor,
So ask her before it's too late,
I danced on girls toes accepted rejection as my fate,
And they made me,,,,,

Here's the guitar chords in the key of G Major.

I[G] was lured by the rockin horse,sweets and bualadh bos,
[C]Fifty wild boys to a[G] room,
[Em]Sing lamh,lamh aile,the[D] dish ran away with the[G] spoon,
Black[G] shoes and stockings for thoes who say dont,
[C]Blue is the colour out[G]side,
[Em]God made the world,the[D] snake tempted Eve and she[G] died,
[Bm]Wild Christian brothers[Em] sharpening their leathers,
[D]Learn it by heart that's the[G] rule,
All[G] I remember is[D] dreading September and[G] school.
 
And they[D] made me for better or[G] worse,
The[C] fool that I[G] am or the[Em] wise man I'll[A] be,
A nd they[D] gave me their blessings or[G] curse,
It[C] wasn't their[G] fault I was[Em] me,[D]not the one that you[G] see.
