_ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ Okay, I don't have an accent. _
_ Recent songs and _ _ stories
Heroes of [F#m] renown
All [A] the passing tale
[D] And _ [A] glories
[E] That once was Dublin town _ _
[A] The hallowed halls [D] and _ [A]
houses
_ Haunting [F#m] children's rhymes
That [A] once was Dublin [D] city
_ [A]
In [E] the rare [E] _ [A] old time _
_ Ring-a-ring [D]-a _ -rosie
As the light [F#m] it blinds
I [A] remember Dublin [D] city
In [E] the rare _ [A] old time _
_ _ _ _ I'll be named, it is [D] shan't _ [A] emcee
As Dublin as [F#m] can be
[A] Barn-hard and bleak
[D] Fimly [A] coved [E] in a house
That ceased to be
[A] By trade I [D] was a [A] cooper
Lost out to _ [F#m] redundancy
_ [A] Like my house, it fell [D] to [A] progress
[E] By trade's a _ [A] memory
_ _ Ring-a [D]-ring-a [A]-rosie
_ As the light it [F#m] _ blinds
[A] I remember _ Dublin [D] city
_ [A] In [E] the rare old [A] time _ _ _ _
And I courted [D] Peggy [A] Dignam
_ As pretty [F#m] as you _ please
[A] A robed child [D] of [A] Mary
From [E] the rebel _ liberties _
_ [E] [A] I lost her to [D] a student [A] chap
With skin as black [F#m] as coal
[A] When he took her off [D] to Birmingham
[E] He took away [A] my soul
_ _ Ring-a [D]-ring-a _
[A]-rosie
As the light it [F#m] blinds
[A] I remember Dublin [D] city _
[E] In the rare _ [A] old time
_ Other _ _ years have [D] made me [A] bitter
_ The gargles dimmed [F#m] me brain
_ [A] For Dublin it keeps [D] on [A] changing
_ [E] _ Nothing seems the same
[E] _ [A] The pillar and [D] the match have [A] gone
The royal uncivil's [F#m] pulled down
While [A] the grey _ [D] unyielding concrete
[A] Makes [E] the city of [A] my town
On your own now, ring-a-ring-a-rosie _ _
_ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [A] How too shabby _ _ _
So fare thee well, sweet Anne [D] _ [A] Olithi
_ I can no longer [F#m] _ stay
For [A] to watch the new [D] glass [A] cages
That [E] spring [D] along [E] would be _
[A] My mind's too full [D] of [A] memories
_ Too old to hear [F#m] new chimes
[A] I'm a part of what [D] was Dublin
[A]
In [E] the rare _ [A] old time _
_ Ring-a-ring [D]-a _ [A]
-rosie
_ As the light [F#m] it blinds
I [A] remember Dublin [D] city _
[E] In the rare _ [A] old time
