Saint Patrick's Day Lyrics And Chords By The Wolfe Tones
Chorus]
Saint[G] Patrick's day for the[C] shamrock make[G] way
For the[D] green white and gold , and the[G] harp[C] bright and[G] old
With[G] the great marching bands playing[C] songs for Ire[G]land
And the[D7] bright[C#] Irish[D] eyes singing[G] out[C] to the[G] sky's
Where the[C] Irish are seen there'll be[G] pride in the green
In[C] Boston New Yory in[D] Dublin in[D7] Cork
For[G] Saint Patrick's day is[C] Ireland's greate[G]st
So lets[D7] say hip , hip hoor[D] ay for[G] Saint[C] Patricks[G] day
[Verse 1]
In New[Em] York they'll be marching the greatest to be seen
P[D]ipers they'll be piping the orange white and green
The[Em] Irish will remember and dance the world around
In[D] London or in Glasgow and down in Melbourne Town
Oh[Em] girls and boys from Dublin sing out those Irish songs
R[D]ebels all from Donegal sing Ireland's rights and wrongs
In[Em] Boston and Chicago we dance the jigs and reels
And[D] all the songs of Ireland and[D7] of it's four green fields
[2]
Saint Patrick was a gentleman who came to Ireland's sod
He banished all the serpents away from Irish bogs
Some people say the devil was on Killarney shore
So he never went to Kerry or so the story goes
He traveled all through Ulster through Connaught and the West
And he went to royal Tara and the king himself he blessed
To all the friends of Ireland who live the world around
Who want to share the day with us a welcome's to be found.
