Wolfe Tones - The big strong man

Have ^Gyou heard about the big strong man,he lives in a carav^Dan, Have you heard about the Jeffery Johnson fight,O^D7h what a hell of a^G fight, Y^Gou can take all the heavy weights you got,we got a lad who will beat the ^Dwhole lot, He used to ring the bells in the belfry,now he's going to fight Jack D^Gempsey,

^GWas my brother Sylvest,whats he got,a row of forty medals on his c^Dhest,big chest He killed fifty bad men in the west,he knows n^Go rest,

He's got an arm like a leg,and a punch that would sink a battle^D ship big ship, It takes all the army and the navy,to put the wind up Sy^Glvest.

He th^Gought he'd take a trip to Italy,he thought that he'd g^Do by sea, He jumped off the harbor in New York,he swam ^D7like a man made of^G cork, H^Ge saw the Lusitania in distress,what he do,he put the Lusitania on his ch^Dest, He drank all the water in the sea,then he walked all the way to Ita^Gly,

^GWas my brother Sylvest,whats he got,a row of forty medals on his c^Dhest,big chest He killed fifty bad men in the west,he knows n^Go rest,

He's got an arm like a leg,and a punch that would sink a battle^D ship big ship, It takes all the army and the navy,to put the wind up Sy^Glvest.

He th^Gought he'd take a trip to old Japan,they turned out th^De whole brass band, He played every instrument they got,like a la^D7d sure he beat the^G whole lot, N^Gow the old church bells will ring,hells fire,the whole church choir will ^Dsing, They all turned out to say farewell to my big brother Sylvest. ^G
