Irish Songs With Easy Chords & Lyrics
Man From Mullingar,
| G | C | G | D |
Well you can | talk and write and | boast about your | Fenains and your | clans. |
| D7 |
And how the boys from beat up the Black And | Tans. |
| G | C | G | D |
And | view a little | codger who came | out without a | scar |
| D7 | G |
His name was Paddy Mulligan, the | Man from Mullin | gar. |
(Chorus)
| G | D |
The | peelers chased him out of Conne | marra |
| G | D |
For | beating up the valiant Scian O' | Hara. |
| C | G | Am | G |
And | when he came to | Ballymote he | stole the parsons' | car |
| D7 | G |
And he gave it to the bishop in the | town of Mullin | gar. |
| D |
Oh, seven hundred peelers couldn't | catch him! |
| G | D |
The | king sent out an order for to | lash him! |
| C | G | C | G |
When | Paddy came to | Dublin town he | stole an armoured | car |
| D7 | G |
And he gave it to the IRA Bri | gade in Mullin | gar. |
On Easter Monday morning when the boys declared a sound
Paddy raised the flag of war down in his native town.
First he went out to make his peace with dear old Father Maher
He went out a blew the barracks up and the man from Mullingar.
And when Ireland takes her place among the nations of the world
A flag of orange, white and green to the forewinds is unfurled.
You'll read the roll of honour and you'll find with a marked scar '
The name of Sarsfield Mulligan, the man from Mullingar!
