Intro: strum a D chord for two bars

^DRaised on songs and ^Gstor-^Dies, heroes of reno^Gwn Ah, the ^Dpassing tales and ^Gglor-^Dies that ^Aonce was Dublin town The ^Dhallowed halls and ^Ghous-^Des, the haunting childrens' ^Grhymes That ^Donce was part of ^GDublin in the ^Arare ould ^Dtimes

(chorus)

^DRing a ring a ^Gro-^Dsey, as the light de-^Bmclines I re-^Dmember Dublin ^Gcity in the ra^Are ould ti^Dmes

Tempo change

Well my ^Dname it is Sean ^GDemp-^Dsey, as Dublin as can ^Gbe Born ^Dhard and late in ^GPimli-^Dco, in a ^Ahouse that ceased to be

(enter electric guitar)

By ^Dtrade I was a ^Gcoo-^Dper, lost out to redundan-^Gcy Like my ^Dhouse that fell to ^Gprogress, my ^Atrade's a memo-^Dry

And I ^Dcourted Peggy ^GDig-^Dnam, as pretty as you ^Gplease A ^Drogue and child of ^GMa-^Dry, from the ^Arebel Liberties I ^Dlost her to a ^Gstudent ^Dchap, with skin as black as ^Gcoal When he ^Dtook her off to ^GBirmingham, she ^Atook away my ^Dsoul

(chorus)

The ^Dyears have made me ^Gbit-^Dter, the gargle dims me ^Gbrain Cause ^DDublin keeps on ^Gchang-^Ding, and ^Anothing seems the same The ^DPillar and the ^GMet have ^Dgone, the Royal long since pulled ^Gdown As the ^Dgrey unyielding ^Gconcrete, makes a ^Acity of my ^Dtown

(chorus) (interlude, the chords are the same as the chorus ans a verse)

Fare thee ^Dwell sweet Anna ^GLi-^Dffey, I can no longer ^Gstay And ^Dwatch the new glass ^Gca-^Dges, that ^Aspring up along the quay My ^Dmind's too full of ^Gmemo-^Dries, too old to hear new ^Gchimes (slow here) I'm a ^Dpart of what was ^GDublin, in the ^Arare ould ^Dtimes

(chorus 2x) and thats that. it should be all correct, but if you find any problems email me.
