Is this the song?
WELCOME POOR PADDY HOME 3/4 (Capo on 5th fret)
D A G D
I am a true born Irishman
D A D
I'll never deny what I am
D A G D
I was born in a sweet Tipperary town
D A D
Three thousand miles away
-Chorus-
D A D
So hurray, me boys, hurray
D A G A
No more do I wish for to roam
D A G D
For the sun it will shine in the harvest time
D A D
For to welcome poor Paddy home
D A D
Now the girls they are gay and frisky
D A G A
They'll take you by the hand
D A G D
Saying Jimmy mo chroi would you come home with me
D A D
For to welcome poor Paddy home
-Chorus-
Well, in came the foreign nation
And scattered all over the land
The horse and the cow, and the goat, sheep and sow
Fell into the stranger's hand
-Chorus-
Now Scotland can boast of the thistle
And England can boast of the rose
And Paddy can boast his old Emerald Isle
Where his dear little shamrock grows.
-Chorus-
