Irish Drinking Song
Buck-o-nine
Verse: Clean strum
I [C] stumbled in at [Em] 2am
all [F] drunk and full of smoke [C]
My [C] wife said I have [Em] had enough
that's [F] it I'm sick get out![C]
So I [F] stumbled down to Kelly's Pub [Am]
a [C] cross the edge of town [G]
and I [C] told the boys me [Em] story
and we [F] had another [C] round...
Chorus: Faster
and we'll [C] drink and drink and [Em}
drink and drink and [F] drink and drink
and [C] fight
and we'll [C] drink and drink and [Em}
drink and drink and [F] drink and drink
and [C] fight
and [F] if I see a [Am] pretty girl I'll
[C] sleep with her [G] tonight
and I'll [C] drink and drink and [Em}
drink and drink and [F] drink and drink
and [C] fight
And Mary McGregor well she was
a pretty whore
she'd always greet you with a smile
and never lock her door
but on the day she died all the
men in town did weep
for Mary McGregor finally
got some sleep
Well I once loved a girl
a child I'm told
I gave her me heart and she
gave me a cold
So now I sit standing out in
the pouring rain
I'll stumble back to Kelly's Pub
and cry away me pain
