Saint Patrick was a Gentleman
Am F C G
Saint Patrick was a gentleman, he came from decent people.
Em F C G C
He built a church in Dublin town and on it put his steeple.
C F C G
His father was a Gallagher, his mother was a Grady
C F C G7 C
His aunt was an O’Shaughnessy, his uncle was a Brady.
Am F C G
The Wicklow hills are very high, and so is the hill of Howth sir
Em F C G C
But there’s a hill much higher still, much higher than them both sir
C F C G
On top of this high hill Saint Patrick preached his sermon
C F C G7 C
Which drove the frogs into the bogs and banished all the vermin.
Am F C G
There’s not a mile of Eireann’s isle where dirty vermin muster
Em F C G C
But there he put his dear fore-foot and murdered them in clusters
C F C G
The frogs went hop and the toads went pop slapdash into the water
C F C G7 C
And the snakes committed suicide to save themselves from slaughter
Am F C G
Nine hundred thousand reptiles blue he charmed with sweet discourses
Em F C G C
And dined on them in Killaloe on soups and second courses
C F C G
Where blind worms crawling in the grass disgusted all the nation
C F C G7 C
Right down to hell with a holy spell he changed their situation
Am F C G
No wonder that them Irish lads should be so gay and risky
Em F C G C
Sure St Pat he taught them that as well as making Whiskey
C F C G
No wonder that the saint himself should understand distilling
C F C G7 C
For his mother kept a shebeen shop in the town of Enniskillen
