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

C# Republic for the workin' class

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

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