(clean)
G# F
Tim Finnegan lived in Watling Street, a gentle Irishman - Mighty odd
C#
He'd a beautiful brogue so rich and sweet,
G# D#
To rise in the world, he carried a hod,
G#
You see he'd sort of a Trippling way:
F
With love for a liquor poor Tim was born,
C#
To help him on with his work each day,
G# D# G#
He'd a drop of the Craythor every morn'...
