[Intro 1]
[G][C][D]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Here I am from [G]Paddy's land,
[C]land of high renown
I [D]broke the hearts of all the girls,
some miles of key to town
And when [G]they hear the time away,
[C]they'll raise a hullabaloo
When they [D]hear about that
handsome lad,
they'll call Adonu
[G]For I'm the bite of pleaser,
and [C]I'm the bite of teaser
[D]I'm the boy to squeeze her eye
and I'll tell you what I'll do
I'll court [G]her like an Irishman
with my [C]brogue and blarney
To ease my plan with my [D]rollick and swollock and
wollock [G]and gol[D]lock and bold, don't [G]know
I wish me love was a red,
red rose upon yon garden [C]wall
And [D]me to be a dewdrop
and upon her brow I'd fall
[G]Perhaps now she might think of me
as [C]rather a heavy dew
The [D]more she'd love the handsome lad I call,
I don't know
[G]For I'm the boy to please her
and [C]I'm the boy to tease her
[D]I'm the boy to squeeze her eye
and I'll tell you what I'll do
I [G]court her like an Irishman
with my [C]brogue and blarney too
As [D]me plenibyrolic and swollic
and [G]gollic and wallic and
[D]bowledonoo[G][C]
[D][G]
They say that Queen Victoria
[D]has [C]a daughter fine and grand
Perhaps [D]she'd take it into
her head
to marry an Irishman
If I [G]could only get a chance
to [C]have a word or two
Perhaps [D]she'd take an ocean
in the bowled -down hill
For [G]I'm the boy to please her
and [C]I'm the boy to tease her
[D]I'm the boy to squeeze her right
and I'll tell you what I'll do
I [G]court her like an Irishman
with my [C]brogue and blarney too
As me plumb would be [D]rollick
and swollen and gollack and [G]wallack
and [D]bowled -a -donna -oo
[G]For I'm the boy to please her
and [C]I'm the boy to tease her
[D]I'm the boy to squeeze her right
and I'll tell you what I'll do
I'd [G]court your like an Irishman
With my [C]brogain blarney
to his nip -line
With my [D]rollickin', swollickin', [G]gollickin',
wallickin' [D]bowled [G]-up donu
[D][G][D][G]
