"The Night Pat Murphy Died"
Great Big Sea
Capo 2
[Verse]
G C G
Oh the night that Paddy Murphy died, is a night I'll never forget
G Em C D
Some of the boys got loaded drunk, and they ain't got sober yet;
G C G
As long as a bottle was passed around every man was feelin' gay
G Em C D G
O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play
[Chorus]
G C G
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
G Em C D
That's how they showed their honour and their pride;
G C G
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
G Em C D G
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
[Instrumental]
G Em C D G
[Verse]
G C G
As Mrs. Murphy sat in the corner pouring out her grief
G Em C D
Kelly and his gang came tearing down the street
G C G
They went into an empty room and a bottle of whiskey stole
G Em C D G
They put the bottle with the corpse to keep that whiskey cold
[Chorus]
G C G
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
G Em C D
That's how they showed their honour and their pride;
G C G
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
G Em C D G
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
[Verse]
G C G
About two o'clock in the morning after empty'ing the jug
G Em C D
Doyle rolls up the ice box lid to see poor Paddy's mug
G C G
We stopped the clock so Mrs. Murphy couldn't tell the time
G Em C D G
And at a quarter after two we argued it was nine
[Chorus]
G C G
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
G Em C D
That's how they showed their honour and their pride;
G C G
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
G Em C D G
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
[Verse]
G C G
They stopped the hearse on George Street outside Sundance Saloon
G Em C D
They all went in at half past eight and staggered out at noon
G C G
They went up to the graveyard, so holy and sublime
G Em C D G
Found out when they got there, they'd left the corpse behind!
[Chorus]
G C G
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
G Em C D
That's how they showed their honour and their pride;
G C G
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
G Em C D G
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
[Verse]
G C G
Oh the night that Paddy Murphy died, is a night I'll never forget
G Em C D
Some of the boys got loaded drunk and they ain't been sober yet;
G C G
As long as a bottle was passed around every man was feelin' gay
G Em C D G
O'Leary came with the bagpipes, some music for to play
[Chorus]
G C G
That's how they showed their respect for Paddy Murphy
G Em C D
That's how they showed their honour and their pride;
G C G
They said it was a sin and shame and they winked at one another
G Em C D G
And every drink in the place was full the night Pat Murphy died
