[Eb] [C]
[Cm] I was born on a double-inch beach [Bb] where the Lyle drums beat,
[Cm] And those loving English feet, they walked all over us.
[Eb] And every single night, [Bb] when me dad would [Gm] come home tight,
[Cm] He'd invite the [Gm] neighbours out [Cm] with his chorus.
Come out, ye black and tans, come [Bb] out and fight me like a man,
[Cm] Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders.
[Eb] Tell her all the IRA [Gm] made you run like hell away
[C] From the dreamin' [Bb] lovely lanes [Cm] of Killish Adver.
Come let us hear you tell [Bb] how you slandered great Parnell,
[Cm] When you thought him well and truly persecuted.
[Eb] Where are the snares and jeers [Bb] that you loudly [Gm] let us hear
[Cm] When our leaders [Gm] of sixteen were [Cm]
executed?
Come out, ye black and tans, [Bb] come out and fight me like a man,
[Cm] Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders.
[Eb] Tell her all the IRA [Bb] made you run like [Gm] hell away
[G] From the dreamin' [Gm] lovely lanes of [Cm] Killish Adver.
Come tell us how you slew [Bb] them old Arabs two by two,
[Cm] Like the Zulus they had spears and bow and arrows.
[Eb] How bravely you faced one [Bb] with your sixteen [Gm] pounder gun,
[Cm] And you frightened them damn natives to the marrow.
Come out, ye black and tans, [Bb] come out and fight me like a man,
[Cm] Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders.
[Eb] Tell her all the IRA [Bb] made you run like [Gm] hell away
[Cm] From the dreamin' [Bb] lovely lanes of [Cm] Killish Adver.
Now the time is coming fast, [Bb] and I think them days are here,
[Cm] When ye tinglish, shawny and heel run before us.
[Eb] And if there'll be a need, [Bb] then our kids will [Gm] say Godspeed,
[Cm] With a verse or [Gm] two of singing [Cm] this mine for us.
Come out, ye black and tans, come [Bb] out and fight me like a man,
[Cm] Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders.
[Eb] Tell her all the IRA [Bb] made you run like [Gm] hell away
[Cm] From the dreamin' [Gm] lovely lanes of [Cm] Killish Adver.
