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

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

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

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

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

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]

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