[Verse 1]
[Em]Lemme[D][G][A][Em]
[D][G][A][Em][D][G][A][Em]
[D][G][A][G][Em]
tell you a little [Bm]story about a man [Em]named Johnny Tar[Bm]r
He was a [Em]hard drinking son [Bm]of a preacher,
[Em]always at [Bm]the bar
[Em]Lager from the [Bm]tap or shots of
[Em]Paddy from the [Bm]shelf
He could [Em]open his throttle and [Bm]throw [Em]backa bottl as quickas the
devil him[Bm]self ... Johnny Tar[Em]r![D]
[G][A][Em][D][G][A]

[Verse 2]
[Em]Word got [Bm]around that Johnny Tar
[Em]r was no pretender[Bm],
From [Em]Clare to here they'd [Bm]lock up the beer
when [Em]Johnny went on a [Bm]bender
[Em]Down at Dickey Mack[Bm]'s,
the Rising [Em]Sun, or at [Bm]the Swan
If he was [Em]drinking at seven by [Bm]ten to eleven well [Em]all the
booze woulb be gone! [Bm]Johnny Tar[A]r![G][A][Em]

[Verse 3]
Even if [D]you say it your[G]self,
you wouldn't be[A]lieve,
And I [Em]wouldn't trust a [D]person like [G]me,
if I were [A]you
[Em]I wasn't the[D]re,
[G]I swear I have an [A]alibi
[Em]I heard it from a [D]man who [G]knows a
fell who says it's [A]true![G][A]
[Em]It was

[Verse 4]
nine in the [Bm]morning
[Em]on a cold rainy [Bm]night,
Johnny [Em]rolled into the Castle Bar,
looking to get tight
[Bm]He had money[Em] in his pocket,[Bm]
he had [Em]whiskey in his eye,
[Bm]He said: Get u[Em]p off your asses and s[Bm]et up the glasses,
I'm [Em]drinking this place [Bm]dry!
[Em][D][G][A][Em][D]

[Verse 5]
[G][A]
Now [Em]all the serious [Bm]boozers,
they were [Em]soon broken hearted
[Bm]When Johnn[Em]y finished off six a[Bm]nd he was
[Em]only getting star[Bm]ted
[Em]Guzzling down the [Bm]pints,
[Em]knockin' em back like candy,
He was lookin' alright to be [Bm]drinkin' all night,
then [Em]Nora brought out the Brandy! [Bm]Johnny Tar[A]r![G][A][G]

[Verse 6]
[Em]Even if you [D]say it your[G]self,
you wouldn't be[A]lieve,
And I [Em]wouldn't trust a [D]person like [G]me,
if I were [A]you
[Em]I wasn't the[D]re, I [G]swear I have an al[A]ibi
I [Em]heard it from a [D]man who knows a [G]fell who says it's [A]true!

[Verse 7]
Johnny [Em]drank the whole damn bottle,
[Bm]had anothe[Em]r pint or two,[Bm]
When it [Em]made no impression [Bm]he started his
session with [Em]Murphy's Millenium [Bm]Brew
He was [Em]waiting for a [Bm]pint
when his [Em]face turned [Bm]green
Je[Em]sus, Johnny fell [Bm]down
after [Em]only fifteen!
[Bm]You

[Verse 8]
[Em]could have heard a pin [Bm]drop,
then the [Em]crowd let out a roar
It took five cork wo[Bm]men to
lift [Em]Johnny off [Bm]the floor!
The [Em]doctor looked [Bm]him over and said you
[Em]bet ter call t[Bm]he h[Em]earse:
but it's not what you're thinkin' it [Bm]wasn't
the drinkin' [Em]this man died [Bm]of thirst
[A][G]

[Verse 9]
[Em]Even if you [D]say it your[G]self,
you wouldn't be[A]lieve,
And I [Em]wouldn't trust a [D]person [G]like me,
if I were [A]you
[Em]I wasn't the[D]re, I [G]swear I have an al[A]ibi
I [Em]heard it from a [G]man who knows a fell who says it's [A]true!
