Capo 3 (optional)
[VERSE]
Well you're wa[Dm]lkin' through a city street, you co[F]uld be in P[C]eru
And you h[Dm]ear a distant calling and you k[C]now it's meant for y[Am]ou,
Then you d[Dm]rop what you were doing and you j[F]oin the merry m[C]ob,
And be[Dm]fore you know just where you are, you're [C]in an Irish [Dm]pub.
[CHORUS]
They've got o[F]ne in Honolulu they've got one in Moscow too,
They got f[Dm]our of them in Sydney and a co[C]uple in Kath[Am]mandu.
So whe[Dm]ther you sing or pull a pint you'll al[F]ways have a j[C]ob,
'Cause wher[Dm]ever you go around the world you'll fin[C]d an Irish pu[Dm]b.
[VERSE]
Now that [Dm]design is fairly simple and it [F]usually works the [C]same,
You'll [Dm]have "Razor Houghton" scoring in [C]the Ireland - England ga[Am]me
And you k[Dm]now your in an Irish pub the minute [F]you're in the doo[C]r,
For a [Dm]couple of boys with bodhrans will be murdering [C]Christy [Dm]Moore.
[CHORUS]
They've got o[F]ne in Honolulu they've got one in Moscow too,
They got f[Dm]our of them in Sydney and a co[C]uple in Kat[Am]hmandu.
So whe[Dm]ther you sing or pull a pint you'll al[F]ways have a j[C]ob,
'Cause wher[Dm]ever you go around the world you'll fin[C]d an Irish pu[Dm]b.
[VERSE]
Now the [Dm]owner is Norwegian and the [F]manager comes from [C]Cork,
And the [Dm]lad that's holding up the [C]bar says 'Only Eejits [Am]Work'
He was [Dm]born and bred in Bolton but his [F]mammy's from Kil[C]dare,
And he's [Dm]going to make his fortune soon and [C]move to County C[Dm]lare.
[CHORUS]
They've got o[F]ne in Honolulu they've got one in Moscow too,

'Cause wher[Dm]ever you go around the world you'll fin[C]d an Irish pu[Dm]b.
[VERSE]
Now it's [Dm]time for me to go I have to [F]catch me t[C]rain,
So I'll [Dm]leave ye sitting at the [C]bar and face the wind and [Am]rain,
For [Dm]I'll have that pint you [F]owe me, if I'm not gone on the [C]dry,
When we [Dm]meet next week in Frankford in the [C]fields of Athen[Dm]ry.
[CHORUS]
