Off To Dublin In The Green chords

[D]I am a merry [A]ploughboy and I ploughed the fields all [D]day.
Till a [A]sudden thought came into my head, that I should
roam a[D]way.
[D]For I'm tired of [A]civilian life, since the day that I was [D]born.
So, I'm[A] off to join the I.R.A. and I'm off tomorro[D]w morn.

[CHORUS]
[D]So, we're off to Dublin' in the[A] green, in the green,
where the helmets glisten in the [D]sun.
Where the [A]bayonets flash and the rifles crash to the
echo of a Thompson [D]Gun.

#2.
[D]Oh, I leave behind my [A]old gray home, I leave behind my [D]plough.
And I [A]leave behind my old gray mare, for no more I'll need 'em[D] now.
[D]And I leave behind my [A]Mary, she's the one that I [D]adore.
And I [A]wonder will she think of me, when she hears the rifles [D]roar.

[CHORUS]
[D]So, we're off to Dublin' in the[A] green, in the green,
where the helmets glisten in the [D]sun.
Where the [A]bayonets flash and the rifles crash to the
echo of a Thompson [D]Gun.

#3.
[D]Oh, some men fight for [A]silver and some men fight for [D]gold.
But the [A]I.R.A. are fighting for the land the Saxons [D]stole.

[CHORUS]
[D]So, we're off to Dublin' in the[A] green, in the green,
where the helmets glisten in the [D]sun.
Where the [A]bayonets flash and the rifles crash to the
echo of a Thompson [D]Gun.

#4.
[D]And when the war is [A]over and dear old Ireland's [D]free.
I will [A]take her to the church to wed, a rebel's wife she'll[D] be.

[CHORUS]
[D]So, we're off to Dublin' in the[A] green, in the green,
where the helmets glisten in the [D]sun.
Where the [A]bayonets flash and the rifles crash to the
echo of a Thompson [D]Gun.
