[Verse 1]
McCormack [Bm]and Richard
Tauber are singing [A]by the [Bm]bed
[A]There's a glass of punch [Bm]be low your feet
and an angel [D]at [A]your head
There's devils on each [Bm]side of you
with [A]bottles in their [Bm]hands
You need one [A]more drop [Bm]of poison and
[F#m]you'll dream of foreign lands

[Verse 2]
[F#m]
When you [D]pissed yourself in [G]Frankfurt
[A]and got syph down in co[D]logne
And you heard the rattling [G]death
trains as [A]you lay there [D]all alone
Frank Ryan brought you whiskey
in [G]a brothel [D]in Madrid
And you [G]decked some fucking
[D]blackshirt who was cursing [A]all the yids
At the [D]sick bed of Cuchulainn
we'll [G]kneel and [D]say a prayer
And the [G]ghosts are [D]rattling at the door and
the [A]devil's in the chair

[Interlude 1]

[Verse 3]
And in the Euston [D]tavern you
[A]screamed it was [D]your shout
But they wouldn't give you ser[G]vice so
you [A]kicked [D]the windows out
They took you out into the street
and [G]kicked you [D]in the brains
So you [G]walked back in through a bolted
[D]door and did it all [A]again
[D]At the sick bed of Cuchulainn we'll
[G]kneel [D]and say a prayer
And the [G]ghosts are rattling [D]at the door and the [A]devil's

[Interlude 2]
in the chair

[Verse 4]
You [A]remember that foul [Bm]evening when
[A]you heard the banshees [Bm]howl
There was [A]lousy drunk[Bm]en bastards
singing [D]billy is in the [A]bowl
They took you up to [Bm]midnight mass
[A]an d left you in the [Bm]lurch
So you [A]dropped a button [Bm]in the plate
and spewed [F#m]up in the church

[Verse 5]
[F#m]
Now you'll [D]sing a song of [G]liberty for
[A]blacks and paks and [D]jocks
And they'll take you from this [G]dump you're
in and [A]stick you [D]in a box
Then they'll take you to [G]Cloughprior and shove
you [D]in the ground
But you'll [G]stick your head back out
[D]and shout "We'll have another [A]round"
[D]At the graveside of Cuchulainn
we'll kneel [G]around and [D]pray
And [G]god is [D]in his heaven,
