[Verse 1]
A#m
Marchin' down O'Connell street
A#m
With a Starry Plough on high
C# G#
Here comes the Citizen's Army
F# G#
With their fists raised to the sky
A#m
And leadin' them was a mighty man
A#m
With a mad rage in his eye
C# G#
"My name is James Connolly
F# G#
I didn't come here to die"
[Pre-Chorus]
F#
But to fight for the rights of the workin' man
C# G#
The small farmer too
F#
To protect the proletariat
C# G#
From the bosses and their screws
[Chorus]
A#m
So hold onto your rifles, boys
A#m F#
Don't give up the dream
F# F#
C# G#
F# Republic for the workin' class
F#
Economic...
F# C#
liberty!
[Verse 2]
A#m
Then Jem cries out, "Oh, citizens
A#m
This system is a curse
C# G#
An English boss is a monster
F# G#
An Irish one is worse
A#m
They'll never lock us out again
And here's the reason why
C# G#
My name is James Connolly
F# G#
I didn't come here to die"
[Pre-Chorus]
F#
But to fight for the rights of the workin' man
C# G#
The small farmer too
F#
To protect the proletariat
C# G#
From the bosses and their screws
[Chorus]

So hold onto your rifles, boys

[Verse 3]
A#m
Now over in the GPO
A#m
With the bullets whizzin' by
C# G#
There's Pearse and Sean McDermott
F# G#
They're tellin' each other goodbye
A#m
Up steps our citizen leaders
As he roars out to the sky:
C# G#
My name is James Connolly
F# G#
I didn't come here to die"
[Pre-Chorus]
F#
But to fight for the rights of the workin' man
C# G#
The small farmer too
F#
To protect the proletariat
C# G#
From the bosses and their screws
[Chorus]

[Verse 4] (accordion drops out)
A#m
We fought them to a standstill
A#m
While the flames lit up the sky
C# G#
Till a bullet pierced our leader
F# G#
And we gave up on the fight
A#m
They shot him in Kilmainham Gaol
A#m
But they'll never stop his cry
C# G#
My name is James Connolly
F# G#
I didn't come here to die"
[Pre-Chorus] (accordion returns)

But to fight for the rights of the workin' man
