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

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

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

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

INSTRUMENTAL:
[G] [D] [C] [D] // [G] [D] [C] [D]
[A] [E] [D] [E] // [A] [E] [D] [E] // [Em]

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

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]

OUTRO:
Where-[Em]-ever you go a-[D]-round the world you'll [Em] find an [Bm] Irish [Em open] pub
