High Kings, Irish Pub Song (2009)
^{Key: :[D#m] (w: Brian Flynn)}

VERSE 1:
Well [D#m] you walk into a city street, you [F#] could be in Per-[C#]-u
And you [D#m] hear a distant calling and you [A#m] know it's meant for [C#] you
And you [D#m] drop what you were doing and you [F#] join the merry [C#] mob
And be-[D#m]-fore you know just [C#] where you are, your [D#m] in an Irish pub

CHORUS:
They've got [F#] one in Honolulu they've got one in Moscow too
They got [D#m] four of them in Sydney and a [A#m] couple in Katman-[C#]-do
So [D#m] wheather you sing or pull a pint you'll [F#] always have a [C#] job
Cause where-[D#m]-ever you go a-[C#]-round the world you'll [D#m] find an Irish pub

VERSE 2:
Now the [D#m] design is fairly simple and it [F#] usually works the [C#] same
You'll have [D#m] "Razor Houghton" scoring in the [A#m] Ireland England [C#] game
And you [D#m] know your in an Irish pub the [F#] minute you're in the [C#] door
For a [D#m] couple of boys with [C#] bodhrans will be [D#m] murdering Christy Moore

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 3:
Now the [D#m] owner is Norwegian, and the [F#] manager comes from [C#] Cork
And the [D#m] lad that's holding up the bar says [A#m] "Only Eejits [C#] Work"
He was [D#m] born and bread in Bolton but his [F#] mammy's from [C#] Kildare
And he's [D#m] going to make his [C#] fortune soon and [D#m] move to County Clare

REPEAT CHORUS:

INSTRUMENTAL:
[F#] [C#] [B] [C#] // [F#] [C#] [B] [C#]
[G#] [D#] [C#] [D#] // [G#] [D#] [C#] [D#] // [D#m]

VERSE 4:
[D#m] Now it's time for me to go I [F#] have to catch me [C#] train
So I'll [D#m] leave ye sitting at the bar and [A#m] face the wind and [C#] rain
For I'll [D#m] have that pint you owe me, like I'm [F#] not gone on the [C#] dry
When we [D#m] meet next week in [C#] Frankford in the [D#m] fields of Athenry

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]

OUTRO:
Where-[D#m]-ever you go a-[C#]-round the world you'll [D#m] find an [A#m] Irish [D#m open] pub
