Clasped To The Pig Chords & Lyrics - Daoiri Farrell

CAPO I

[INTRO]
[D] [G] [D] (4X)

[VERSE 1]
Oh, [D]backwards and forwards I’ve been [G]reeling and [D]tight
Oh, [G]twas some spree that I [D]been at last night
I [D]been to McCarthys with [G]Patsy O[D]Maher
And we [G]drank the black bottle from [D]under the bar
We [D]drank and we drank, we [G]banished all [D]care
We [G]gave not a thought to foul [D]weather or fair
And [D]now, on the floor, I'm curled [G]up in a [D]heap
Biddy, [G]leave me to sleep, Biddy, [D]leave me to sleep!

[CHORUS]
I’m [D]clasped to the pig, in a [G]loving em[D]brace
The [G]hairs of his curly tail are [D]tickling my face
There’s [D]no use in telling me [G]sober to [D]keep
Biddy, [G]leave me to sleep, Biddy, [D]leave me to sleep

[BREAK]
[D] [G] [D] (4X)

[VERSE 2]
A [D]long time ago, in the [G]days that are [D]gone
Oh well, [G]gayly I flouried my [D]knotty black-thorn
[D]And if I but only [G]had it to[D]night
Well [G]maybe I wouldn't be [D]offered a fight
[D]And if Pat Murphy I [G]chances to [D]meet
It's a [G]terrible ruction we would [D]have in the street
And [D]he’ll soon be glad in his [G]knot-hole to [D]creep
Biddy, [G]leave me to sleep, Biddy, [D]leave me to sleep!

[CHORUS]
I’m [D]clasped to the pig, in a [G]loving em[D]brace
The [G]hairs of his curly tail are [D]tickling my face
There’s [D]no use in telling me [G]sober to [D]keep
Biddy, [G]leave me to sleep, Biddy, [D]leave me to sleep

[BREAK]
[D] [G] [D] (4X)

[VERSE 3]
Drop [D]down by the pig, here, and [G]share his em[D]brace
And [G]let my red whiskers lie [D]close to your face
This [D]craythur won't hurt you, no he’ll [G]do you no [D]harm
Drop [G]down by me, Biddy, and [D]keep me back warm
And [D]squeeze up beside me, as you've o[G]ft done befo[D]re
I'll [G]sing you to sleep with the [D]sounds of me snore
The [D]rats and the mice all a[G]round us will [D]creep
Biddy, [G]leave me to sleep, Biddy, [D]leave me to sleep!

[CHORUS]
I’m [D]clasped to the pig, in a [G]loving em[D]brace
The [G]hairs of his curly tail are [D]tickling my face
There’s [D]no use in telling me [G]sober to [D]keep
Biddy, [G]leave me to sleep, Biddy, [D]leave me to sleep

[CHORUS]
I’m [D]clasped to the pig, in a [G]loving em[D]brace
The [G]hairs of his curly tail are [D]tickling my face
There’s [D]no use in telling me [G]sober to [D]keep
Biddy, [G]leave me to sleep, Biddy, [D]leave me to sleep
