Well I counted up his money [Bm] and it made a pretty penny.

So I produced my best [Bm] of four.
Well, she'd stolen away the rapier, [G] but I couldn't shoot the [D] water.

Together we'd go [Bm] roaming or the mountains in [D] Kilkenny.

We've decided that any [N] live CD that's recorded in an Irish pub by an Irish band
to an audience that likes that kind of thing
should at least have one sort of a soft ballad in it, a sad song.
And so we're going to give you this one.
If you'll bear with us.
This is a song you can drink beer during the song.
It doesn't interfere with anything at all except your vision [E] later.
[N] So here's a soft sort of a sad ballad.
