[G]I am a [D]true born [C]Irishm[G]an
I'll [G]never den[D]y what I [G]am

[G]Hurray me [D]boys hurr[G]ay
No [G]more do I [D]wish for to [C]roa[G]m
For the [G]sun it will [D]shine in the [C]harvest [G]time
[G]To welcome poor [D]Paddy [G]home

They'll [G]take you [D]by the [C]hand[G]
Saying [G]Jimmy mo [D]chroi will you [C]come with [G]me
And [G]welcome the [D]stranger [G]home

[G]In came the [D]foreign [G]nation
And they [G]scattered all [D]over the [C]land[G]
The [G]horse, the [D]cow, the [C]goat, sheep and [G]sow
Came [G]into the [D]stranger's [G]hands

The [G]Scotsman can [D]boast of the [G]thistle
And [G]England can [D]boast of the [C]rose[G]
But [G]Paddy can [D]boast of the [C]Emerald [G]Isle
Where the [G]dear little [D]shamrock [G]grows.

[G]Hurray me [D]boys hurr[G]ay
No [G]more do I [D]wish for to [C]roa[G]m
For the [G]sun it will [D]shine in the [C]harvest [G]time
[G]To welcome poor [D]Paddy [G]home
[G]Hurray me [D]boys hurr[G]ay
No [G]more do I [D]wish for to [C]roa[G]m
For the [G]sun it will [D]shine in the [C]harvest [G]time
[G]To welcome poor [D]Paddy [G]home
