[Verse 1]
[G]The[Abdim]y[A][Eaug][E][Ebdim][D]
[G]took old Danny [C]Boy for a ride
From the [Am]arms [F]of his bride to [G]be
Threw him into the murky wa[C]ters
By the [Am]dog bis[F]cuit facto[G]ry
Quick dry the tears and [C]stifle cheers
As [G]he sink[Am] s jus[F]t like a s[G]tone
Footprints set in senti[C]mental ce[G]ment
Now [Am]burden [F]down his [G]bones[Em]
[E]Lest we forget
Here [Am]lies the [G]Great un[D]known[F#dim]

[Verse 2]
[G]My my my Deli[C]lah
Who's the [Am]butcher [F]that you har[G]bor
Take the [D]rich [G]man to the [C]cleaners
And [Am]the strong [F]man to the [G]barber
From her face down to [C]her torso
Sort of [Am]grue[F]some only [G]more so
Hooks and [Em]eyes, fingers and [E]thumbs
Ladies and [Am]gentlemen here she comes
The great [F#dim]unknown

At a wedding or [D]a wake[Asus4]
[D]Whose [C]name shall we cher[Gsus4]ish

[Verse 4]
Now [G]this year`s cannon fod[C]der
Tell the fu[F]ture gen[G]eral`s jokes
They were keeping the home fires [C]burning
As [Am]we slipped [F]out for [G]a smoke
Though [Em]the VIP`s sang
[E]"Wooden Heart"
The [Am]band played [G]"Hearts [Am]of O[D]ak"
