Chords for The Kilkennys - Finnegans wake

Well, James Joyce's last novel before he passed away was called Finnegan's Wake.
_ And we're going to tell you the story of Tim [Db] Finnegan this [Eb] time, a hard-working [C] Irish [N] man from Dublin City,
who was very fond.
He loved Irish whiskey. _ _
18-year-old Jemison was his favourite.
_ And every morning before he went to work, he'd have a glass or two of whiskey,
just to warm him up and give himself some energy for the road ahead. _ _
[Eb] So one day he was working on the building site, he was up [G] very high on the roof,
_ [N] and he fell to the ground and he passed away. _ _ _ _
But the Irish word for whiskey is called iscabá, and that literally means the water of life.
And Tim Finnegan had so much iscabá inside him that morning, he came back to life! _ _
[Gm] So we're going to need your help one last time before we go home tonight.
You've been a great [Ab] audience so far, so we want to leave the hall on a high note.
This is a fast song, a loud [N] song, so you've got to clap your hands, stamp your feet.
If you know the words, sing along, but we all have to do it together!
_ _ I said together! _ _
And when the chorus ends, you have to pay special attention, because that's when we all need to stop together,
otherwise the song won't work.
_ So here's Finnegan's Wake! _
[Am] _ _ Tim Finnegan lived in a loppy street, he [Bb] was an [Cm] Irish gentleman [G] by the yard.
[A] Well he had a brother both [Am] rich and sweet, [Bb] and to guide him [G] along he carried [C] a hard.
Now Tim made a song with a tender and [Am] way, with a love where the whiskey poured Tim was born.
And [F] to have a man with ease away each [C] day, _
[G] he'd a chocolate and a [Am] green bar. _
And to have Tim with him, he'd a _ _
[C] chocolate and _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ a green bar.
Okay, _ that was _ bad.
_ Really bad.
Okay, [Eb] so we have to pay extra attention, that's where we have to stop, or the song [Db] won't work.
So everybody [E] knows what to do, yes?
We're going to get it right next time?
[C] _ Let's see.
_ [Am] _ _ One morning Tim felt rather full, [G] his head felt heavy [C] which made him shake.
Then [Am] he fell from the ladder and he broke his skull, and [F] they carried [C] him home, his corpse away.
They wrapped him up in nice clean sheets, [D] they laid him out upon the bed.
[F] With a bag of [C] sugar, the one night.
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Now, if you'll come to the left, please.
_ [N] _ _ _
_ So close.
I see you, that's two in a row.
Two in a row, yeah you [F] did.
[G] A little bit better, [C] most people [Am] have it right, but there's one or two people still [N] getting it wrong. _
[Eb] So we have a lighting engineer here tonight.
[Abm] _ [Cm] And if anybody gets it wrong the next time, we'll put the spotlight on you.
_ [N]
So _ be [A] careful.
Now friends of St.
[Am] Malatwink, [F] and the [G] businessmen, come for [Am] lunch!
First she brought them tea and cake, then [G] tux and apples.
[N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb]
We have the spotlight on you. _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ Then Bill Blane began to cry, for what did such [D] a nice tea cause that you never see? _
[F] Oh, a trim the horny pie did you tie?
[G] Well yes, it sure has.
_ [Am] _ Then _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [Am] Maggie got on her toes, popped the jar, and made a treaty [D] of rum [G] and joe.
[Am] Then he picked one up, left it in a cup, and left her [Em] spotted on [C] the floor.
Then he took all of his soup and [D] cake, one and two, and two and three, and two and five.
[F] So then the dolls saw the [G] ring, and ran around in their own [Ab] shirts.
Yeah!
[Am] _ _ But then the mega-dolls, the wicked, the twisted, the laughing, got the bet, [F] and the [C] whiskey's better.
Of course. _
_ _ [Cm] _ _ [C] Now Jiminy likes the healthy rices, but [D] Tarleton's getting out of the bag.
[F] Say, I'm pouring your whiskey round my great [N] eyes.
Come on, Jamie, I think [Am] I dare.
What?
_ I'm not sure what you're [D] talking about.
_ [Am] _ _ _
I'm sure it's the right thing to do.
What? _ _
_ _ [G] _ [Am] I'm sure it's the right thing to do.
I'm sure it's the right thing to do.
No, never say that again.
[C] How's your album?
It's awesome.
Awesome.
I love it. _ _
