C G C

Hey, Johnny McGory, tell me where's your glory gone !

F C G

I saw you up in the Monto with your old leg gone.

C F Am ~

A dirty Flanders bullet, sure it left you half a man.

C G C

Hey, Johnny McGory, where's your old leg gone ?

G Am

1. Up the Sally Gardens, around the back of the pipes,

G Am

messing with the liberty bells a man could lose his stripes.

C F C

Trading on your troubles and grabbing every chance,

G C

to show the randy old ones all the things you learned in France.

+ CHORUS

G Am

2. Up in Gloucester Diamonds, Red Biddy on your mind,

G Am

not a tosser in your pocket, not a soul you could remind.

C F C

The lord knows you're a darling, you never did give in,

G C

your neck's as hard as concrete, and your laugh's a mortal sin.

G Am

3. Monday in the Iveagh, Tuesday in the tracks,

G Am

Wednesday's walking wounded, Thursday's soldier bags.

C F C

Friday's heroes on the touch, and Saturday's lost again,

G C

but with Sunday's good intentions,sure we start the week again.

+ CHORUS

(orig. = capo 2nd) (The Dubliners)
