Macklemore - Irish celebration

I'm an ^CIrishman, ^G leather weathered Irish skin ^Am Beard orange as the s^Funset over the flag In the ni^Cght sky we fly it in^G, pride for the life we fight to live ^Am History, I write with it, s^Fpit it with the dialect And t^Chis is a celebrat^Gion of course The ^Amgreen, white, o^Frange And when they ^Cpulled up on that shore, first gener^Gation born Toast to ^Amthose that made it on a ^Fboat to New York (New York!) And when the ^CEnglish came, the coloniz^Ger came They f^Amilled up bottles of gasoline^F, turned 'em into balls of flame And ^Churled 'em to protect what's ours,^G don't touch these lucky charms ^Am Whole bunch of Irish screa^Fmin' "Fuck the London Guard" ^C I'm kidding not diss^Gin' London, this bloody war ^Am But go against the Irish^F and get a bloody jaw ^C Preach nonviolence but remi^Gnd of the scars And the b^Amias, put a pint up everybo^Fdy sing a song
