Rocky Road To Dublin Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Hunt the hare and turn her
down the rocky road
And all the way to Dublin,
Wackville, Duralab
In the merry month of May
From me home I started
like the girls of tune
[A]Nearly [Bm]broken hearted,
sa[Em]luted by the dear
Kiss me darling mother, drank a pint of beer
We [Bm]grieved the tears to smother,
[Em]but to reap the corn
Leave where I was born,
cut to stout black thorn
To [Bm]banish ghost and goblin,
[Em]brand new pair of probes
Crackle down the bogs,
frighten down the doves
On the [Bm]rocky road to Dublin
[Em]One, two, three, four, five
Hunt the hare and turn her
down the rocky road
And [D]all the way to [Bm]Dub lin,
[Em]whack Valera loud
In Mullingar that night
I rested limbs so weary,
started by daylight
Next [A]morning [Bm]light and air
He [Em]took a drop of the puke
To keep me hard from sinking
That's a fisherman's cure
When [Bm]air is on for drinking
To [Em]see the lassie smile
Laughin' all the while,
at me curious style
Would set your heart a [Bm]-bolin'
[Em]Ask if I was hired, wages I required
Till I was almost tired of the [Bm]rocky road
To Dublin, [Em]one, two, three, four, five
Hunt the hare and turn her
down the rocky road
And [D]all the way to Dublin,
[Em]wack -a -doodle [C]-la[G][D]

In [Em]Dublin next arrived
It's such a pity to be so soon deprived
A view of [Bm]that fine city, [Em]then I took a stroll
Put among the quality me bundle it bestow
In a [Bm]neat locality,
[Em]something crossed me mind
Then I looked behind,
no bundle could I find
Upon [Bm]me snick a wobble,
en[Em]quiring for the road
Same iconic road, wasn't much in bold
On the [Bm]rocky road to Dublin,
[Em]one, two, three, four, five
Hunt the hare and turn her
down the rocky road
And [D]on the way to Dublin,
[Em]whack -a -doodle -da!
The boys of Liverpool,
who safely landed
Called me self a fool
I could no longer stand
it, blood began to boil
For I was losing for all errands I'd
[A]They began [Bm]abusing Haram, Mi[Em]ss Salsa,
Siamese, Shillelagh, Eilat, Gwent,
some Galway boys were by
So [Bm]I was a -hobbling wit[Em]h the loud Haram,
they joined in the upbreak
We quickly cleared the way
for the rocky road to [Bm]Dublin, [Em]one,
two, three, four, five
Hunt the hare and turn
her down the rocky road,
and [D]all the way to Dublin,
[Em]Whack -a -doodle -da!
