BORN TO BE A BACHELOR
tab by: Mikey P.
INTRO: |C--Bb| (repeated several times)
[C]Let me introduce me self,
Me name is Paddy Green
I am me mammyâ??s pride and joy
A fine ol buachaillin!
I come from the county Waterford,
Near the village of Tramore,
Iâ??ve been living at home since I was one,
And [F]now Iâ??m forty[G]-four!
REFRAIN:
I was [F]born to be a Bachelor,
Iâ??ll[Bb] never walk down the[C] aisle,
Me [F]mam still makes me breakfast,
L[Bb]ivin it up in sty[C]le,
[Bb]Girls, you'll never catch me,
St[F]ayin single, is the plan
I was born to be a Bachelor,
Sur[C]e Iâ??m yer onl[F]y man! Hah?
(intro)
Into town on the Saturday night,
All the boys go on a spree,
If you come down to the disco,
You can have a drink with me!
With the ladies on the dance floor,
Iâ??m a wild and crazy guy,
In me white socks and me black suede shoes,
and me thin red leather tie!
(Refrain)
Then itâ??s off to mass next morning,
Iâ??m wearin me Sunday best,
Iâ??ve got no wife to fight with,
So Iâ??ve no sins to confess!
After church, the married men
go home, oh what a shame!
Cause Iâ??m scullin da pints down at the pub
While watchin the football game!
(Refrain)
(intro)
play Barre Chords:
Iâ??[C]m a ramblin ranter, Iâ??[Bb]m a rollin stone,
Iâ??[C]m a galavanter go-on an[Bb] leave me alone,
If y[C]er out to get married, you[Bb]â??ll get no joy,
C (no chord)
Cause I was born and bred to be a bachelor boy!
(short intro)
Up in Lisdoonvarna,
Theyâ??ve an old matchmakerâ??s fair,
The girls all go a huntin
So youâ??ll never see me there!
Iâ??ve got a Russian sweetheart,
A fine ole thing is she!
Sheâ??s out in Vladivostok
And thatâ??s close enough for me!
Refrain (2X)
(intro out)
