Give D Ireland back to the G Irish
Make D Ireland A7 Irish D today
Great D Britain, you are E tremendous
And G nobody knows like D me
But really what are you E doin'
In the [G[land across the D sea
Tell me Bm how would you like E it
If G on your way to D work
You were Bm stopped by Irish E soldiers
Would you G lie down, do nothing
Would you give in, go ber A7 serk
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today
Great Britain, and all the people
Say that all people must be free
And meanwhile, back in Ireland
There's a man who looks like me
And he dreams of God and country
And he's feeling really bad
And he's sitting in a prison
Should he lie down, do nothing
Should he give in, or go mad
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Don't make them have to take it away
Give Ireland back to the Irish
Make Ireland Irish today
