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

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

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

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

INSTRUMENTAL:
[A#] [F] [Eb] [F] // [A#] [F] [Eb] [F]
[C] [G] [F] [G] // [C] [G] [F] [G] // [Gm]

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

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]

OUTRO:
Where-[Gm]-ever you go a-[F]-round the world you'll [Gm] find an [Dm] Irish [Gm open] pub
