	D	G	D	G
	Raised on songs and	stor-	ies, heroes of reno	wn

	D	G	D	A
Ah, the	passing tales and	glor-	ies that	once was Dublin town

	D	G	D	G
The	hallowed halls and	hous-	es, the haunting childrens'	rhymes

	D	G	A	D
That	once was part of	Dublin in the	rare ould	times

(chorus)

	D	G	D	Bm
	Ring a ring a	ro-	sey, as the light de-	clines

	D	G	A	D
I re-	member Dublin	city in the ra	re ould ti	mes

Tempo change

	D	G	D	G
Well my	name it is Sean	Demp-	sey, as Dublin as can	be

	D	G	D	A
Born	hard and late in	Pimli-	co, in a	house that ceased to be

(enter electric guitar)

	D	G	D	G
By	trade I was a	coo-	per, lost out to redundan-	cy

	D	G	A	D
Like my	house that fell to	progress, my	trade's a memo-	ry

	D	G	D	G
And I	courted Peggy	Dig-	nam, as pretty as you	please

	D	G	D	A
A	rogue and child of	Ma-	ry, from the	rebel Liberties

	D	G	D	G
I	lost her to a	student	chap, with skin as black as	coal

	D	G	A	D
When he	took her off to	Birmingham, she	took away my	soul

(chorus)

	D	G	D	G
The	years have made me	bit-	ter, the gargle dims me	brain

	D	G	D	A
Cause	Dublin keeps on	chang-	ing, and	nothing seems the same

	D	G	D	G
The	Pillar and the	Met have	gone, the Royal long since pulled	down

	D	G	A	D
As the	grey unyielding	concrete, makes a	city of my	town

(chorus)

(interlude, the chords are the same as the chorus ans a verse)

	D	G	D	G
Fare thee	well sweet Anna	Li-	ffey, I can no longer	stay

	D	G	D	A
And	watch the new glass	ca-	ges, that	spring up along the quay

	D	G	D	G
My	mind's too full of	memo-	ries, too old to hear new	chimes

(slow here)

	D	G	A	D
I'm a	part of what was	Dublin, in the	rare ould	times

(chorus 2x)

and thats that. it should be all correct, but if you find any problems email me.
