Flogging Molly – No More Paddys Lament (Guitar)

         Bm                           F#m
Wipe the blood from your lip with the flesh of your hand

           Bm                        A
There's no thorn in the side left to grow

         Bm                          F#m
So let's cherish the names that were lost for an age

         D           A          Bm
With the rue now the supper must go

         Bm                         F#m
Where traditions they blend lives a home on the mend

    Bm                        A
The grass glistens now for all fights

         Bm                      F#m
So let's sever the shame we have come to reclaim

         D       A               Bm
With the water's retreat feel the shore

         E5                   A                    Bm
When the red rose pales lay a thousand graves many more

           E5                         A                      F#m
Though the ghost still haunts for the day we've come to live for

           D                A
Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved

    Em                          A
The exiled are home where their souls are kept safe

        D           A
Take me back on the crest of a wave

        Bm              A         Bm
No more tears for your paddy's lament

        D
No more tears

        A
No more paddy's

  Bm
Lament

        Bm                               F#m
Rip the greed from his heart, there's no sorrow tonight

        Bm                          A
For now once paddy's dreams sleep divine

          Bm                     F#m
Where the silence ya hear is the prosper we share

         D          A           Bm
The only blade is a razor sharp smile

          E5                   A                           Bm
Still the church bell rings to collect the sins that still roam

       E5                     A                    F#m
But the only thing lost is the pain of nothing once more

           D                A
Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved

    Em                          A
The exiled are home where their souls are kept safe

        D           A
Take me back on the crest of a wave

        Bm             A         Bm
No more tears for your paddy's lament

        D
No more tears

        A
No more paddy's...

         Bm                 N.C.
Grab the leaf of the branch from the tree in its ground

        Bm                        N.C.
Where the roots claimed the earth many toiled

          Bm              N.C.
To a land that now stands under no one's command

        D          A         Bm
And her beauty let no man destroy

     Bm                     F#m
So remember the gun and the damage it's done

         Bm                                A
The last drop has been spilled for you and I

          Bm                    F#m
Let there be no despair for the rule we once shared

         D             A              Bm
Brush the tear from the eye that still shines

         E5                   A                    Bm
When the red rose pales lay a thousand graves many more

           E5                         A                      F#m
Though the ghost still haunts for the day we've come to live for

           D                A
Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved

    Em                          A
The exiled are home where their souls are kept safe

        D           A
Take me back on the crest of a wave

        Bm             A         Bm
No more tears for your paddy's lament

           D                A
Don't look back, for what's dead now is saved

    Em                          A
The exiled are home where their souls are kept safe

        D           A
Take me back on the crest of a wave

        Bm             A         Bm
No more tears for your paddy's lament

        Bm             A         Bm
No more tears for your paddy's lament

        D
No more tears

        A
No more paddy's
