In [C]Beal Na Bla in the year twenty two
There died the best patriot this [Dm]country ever knew No [C]crime he committed, no wrong had he done He was true till he's murdered by a [G7]cruel assassins’ [C]gun [G7…C] O, who is the man with the blood on his hands Such a cold blooded ambush there never was planned Shame on the traitor that gave the command But they murdered the brave Michael Collins When the great notice of freedom was sounded through the land He shouldered his rifle for Ireland took his stand He was hunted through Dublin but he stayed while others fled Ten thousand sovereigns was the price upon his head O, who is the man with the blood on his hands Such a cold blooded ambush there never was planned Shame on the traitor that gave the command But they murdered the brave Michael Collins With courage undaunted did he struggle and defeat To be the clan united to set our country free Trusted by the people as a man of high renown Beloved by his comrades and hated by the crown O, who is the man with the blood on his hands Such a cold blooded ambush there never was planned Shame on the traitor that gave the command But they murdered the brave Michael Collins [G#7…C#] The [C#]convoy set out from the town of Skibbereen By the side of a road stayed his [D#m]enemy unseen They [C#]shot him without warning on that tragic summers day But serving his country, what a [G#7]price that was to [C#]pay O, who is the man with the blood on his hands Such a cold blooded ambush there never was planned Shame on the traitor that gave the command But they murdered the brave Michael Collins.
