11 Short Stories of Pain & Glory

Dropkick Murphys are a celtic punk band formed in Quincy, Massachusetts, United States in 1996.  First playing together in the basement of a friend's barbershop, the band made a name for itself because of its relentless touring and for its annual St.  Patrick's Day weekend shows in Boston.  The band's songs often deal with the working-class environment in which its members grew up.  The band put out a series of EPs and was signed by Rancid frontman Tim Armstrong's label Hellcat Records.  In 1998, the Dropkick Murphys released their first full-length album, Do or Die.

1st verse:
    Am                            C                     
The pictures tell the story, this life has many shades
    G                           Am
I'd wake up every morning and before I'd start each day

G                           Am                Am     Am
Down a little something and then be on my way

I travelled far and wide and laid this head in many ports
      G                          Am
I was guided by a compass, I saw beauty to the north
           Am                               C
I drew the tales of many lives and wore the faces of my own

I had these memories all around me so I wouldn't be alone

Sometimes I was so messed up and didn't have a clue
        C                     G
I ain't winning no one over I wear it just for you

A ship that always stays the course, an anchor for my every choice

A rose that shines down from above, I signed and sealed these words in blood

Murphy, Murphy, darling dear
  G            D             A 
I long for you now night and day
     D                          G         D
Your pain was my pleasure, your sorrow my joy

I feel now I've lost you to health and good cheer

D                           G              A
Darcy, when I met you I was five years too young
  D              G              A        D
A boy beyond his age, or so I'd tell someone
Bm                        G                
Anyone who'd listen and a few who couldn't care
        D                 G             A          D
Still I welcomed you with open arms, my love I did share

[Chorus]

D            G
Darcy, Darcy darling dear,
    D              A          
You left me dying, crying there
D                    G
In whiskey, gin, and pints of beer
  A               D       D      G D A D G A D
I fell for you my darling dear

You shut me off and you showed me the door
        D           G             A              D
But you always came crawling back begging me for more
Bm                       G            
I showed you kindness, a stool, and a tab
         D            G         A     D
Then you poured me my pain in a dirty glass
       G                              D              A

You know, I often stopped and wondered how you made it through my door
        Bm                          G         
With my brother's new non-duplicate registry ID
         D                 G                  A             D
Well you bit off more than you could chew the first day you met me.

        D             G             A              D
Oh, I'm sure I wasn't honey, I know all about your past
Bm                              G
Listen to the big shot with his pager on call
          D             G            A        D
You spent most of those nights in my bathroom stall
       G                         D        A
(Yeah, you got him high, but you left him low)
D             G              A            D
Mind your own business, boy, how was I to know
     Bm                        G
That he was just a fiend and a no-good cheat
          D          G                 A               D
Well it's all in the past bitch 'cause now I've got it beat.

        G               C           G                   D
For you stole trevelyens corn so the young might see the morn
D                                     G
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay
Chorus:
G   C       G         Em           G                                      D
Low lie the fields of athenry where once we watched the small free birds fly
G                   C            G                    D
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
D                                     G
Its so lonely round the fields of athenry
Verse 2:
G                         C                 G   D
By a lonely prison wall I heard a young man cal-ling 
G               C                D
Nothing matters Mary when you're free
            G              C       G                       D
Against the famine and the crowd I rebelled they called me down
D                               G
Now you must raise a child with dignity
Chorus:
G   C       G         Em           G                                      D
Low lie the fields of athenry where once we watched the small free birds fly
G                   C            G                    D
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
D                                     G
Its so lonely round the fields of athenry
Verse 3:
G                           C                      G   D
By a lonely hobble wall she watched the last stalk fal-ling
       G                 C              D
As the prison ship sailed out across the sky
              G                C            G            D
Sure she'll wait and hope and pray for her love in barney bay
D                                  G
It's so lonely round the fields of athenry
Chorus:
G   C       G         Em           G                                      D

     Eb                       G#
I've lost all the time that I have in this world
     Eb                   G#         Bb
I've spent it unwisely, unwisely you see
      Eb                      G#
And I can't get it back and I can't move forward
    Eb             G#          Bb       Eb
I'm broken and I'm empty, it's over for me

   G#                   Eb
If I could undo all the wrongs that I've caused
G#                         Eb            Bb
Fall to my knees, pray for swiftness and just
    Eb                      G#           
For I'm just a fool, a fool driven to dust
        Eb          G#    Bb         Eb
And the world ain't gonna change for me

            G#                         Eb            Bb
Aren't just manifest in memories we're destined to repeat
  Eb                       G#
A second chance to prove I know right from wrong
  Eb                   G#                  Bb            Eb
I swear I'll do things different but can't promise to be strong

Vagrants, and barflies down on the street

Verse 3:

  Eb                               G#              Bb
I swear I once was pretty, not the monster you now see
      Eb                                 G#
But I squandered all my chances, lost my faith and took for granted 
     Eb                G#              Bb             Eb
This life and precious one chance, the whirlwind I'll wreak

         Am                G                                Am
Last night as I lay dreaming, of pleasant days gone by
         Am                                                C         G
My mind was bent on rambling, and to Boston I did fly
   Am                                              C           G
I stepped on board a vision, and I followed with the will
           Am                 G                                                   Am
Till at last, I came to anchor at the rocks on Fairmount Hill
           Am        G                                 Am
It was on the 23rd of June, one day before the fair
          Am                                                 C           G
When Boston's sons and daughters and friends assembled there
        Am                                                             C       G
The young, the old, the brave and the bold, came their duty to fulfill
            Am                     G                             Am
At the parish church on Thatcher, a mile from Fairmount Hill
   Am                   G                                    Am
I went to see old friends there, to see what they might say
        Am                                                     C       G
The old ones were all dead and gone, the young ones turning gray
   Am                                           C                 G
I met the broker Hughes, he's as odd as ever still
          Am                         G                                  Am
See I used to crash at his mother's house, when I hung on Fairmount Hill
   Am               G                                   Am
I paid a flying visit to my first and only love
              Am                                 C               G
She's as white as any lily, and as gentle as a dove
       Am                                                  C                         G
She threw her arm around me saying, "Andy I love you still"
               Am                         G                         Am
Oh, she's one miss Fayes O'Bailey, the pride of Fairmount Hill
   Am                        G                                    Am
I dreamt I'd fought a violent war for the hand of this darling gal
    Am                                                C         G
A-gainst an angry jealous foe by the name of Danny Gill
        Am                        G                             Am
The clock it rang in the morning, it rang both loud and shrill
              Am                G                          Am
When I awoke in Cali-fornia, many miles from Fairmount Hill

Verse 1:
     Eb                    G#                 Eb  Bb
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling
Eb                G#         Bb 
Michael they have taken you away
        Eb               G#           Eb                  Bb
For you stole Trevelyn's corn, so the young might see the morn
      Bb                              Eb
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay

Chorus:
Eb  G#      Eb             Cm
Low lie the Fields of Athenry
      Eb                  Cm?              Bb
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
    Eb              G#          Eb                  Bb
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
        Bb                               Eb
It's so lonely 'round the Fields of Athenry

By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling
Eb               G#               Bb
Nothing matters, Mary when you're free
        Eb             G#         Eb                 Bb
Against famine and the Crown, I rebelled they cut me down
    Bb                                 Eb
Now you must raise our child with dignity

     Eb                      G#                    Eb  Bb
By a lonely harbor wall, she watched the last star falling
     Eb                 G#              Bb
As a prison ship sailed out against the sky
            Eb                G#            Eb             Bb
Sure she'll wait and hope and pray, for her love in Botany Bay
        Bb                               Eb

C
All of my dreams seem to fall by the side like a 
 F                                           G
Discarded thought or the day's fading light
         C
But I know if I could just see you tonight
F            G  
Forever

     C
At times we may fall like we all tend to do
             F                                              G
but I'll reach out and find that I've run into you

Your strength is the power that carried me through

Forever

Your kindness for weakness I never mistook
  F                                      G
I worried you often but you understood
         C
That life is so fleeting these troubles won't last
F            G
Forever
   C
Inspired me truly you did from the start
      F                                  G
To not be afraid and to follow my heart
                 C
There's a piece of you with me they can't tear apart

     Bb                       Eb            F
I've seen a lot of sights and traveled many miles
Bb                           Ebm            Eb
Shook a thousand hands and seen my share of smiles
Bb                                 Eb                F
I've caused some great concern and told one too many lies
Bb                                    F
And now I see the world through these sad, old, jaded eyes

Bb                             Eb
So what if I threw a party and all my friends were there?
Bb                         F
Acquaintances, relatives, the girls who never cared
Bb                                         Eb
You'll have a host of rowdy hooligans in a big line out the door
F
Side by side with Sister Barbara, Chief Wells and Bobby 'Orr
Bb
I'd invite the Flannigans
Eb
Replace the window you smashed out
Bb                           F
I'd apologize the Sluggo for pissing on his couch
Bb                           Eb
I'll see Mrs. McAuliffe and so many others soon
F
Then I'll say I'm sorry for what I did sleepwalking in her room

Bb                              Eb
So what if I threw a party and invited Mayor Menino?
Bb
He'd tell you to get a permit
F
Well this time Tom I don't think so
Bb
It's a neighborhood reunion
Eb
But now we'd get along
F
Van Morrison would be there and he'd sing me one last song
Bb                                    Eb
With a backup band of bass players to keep us up all night
Bb
Three handsome four string troubadours
F
And Newton's own Fat Mike
Bb                                    Eb
I'll be in the can having a smoke with Garv and Johnny Fitz
F
But there's a back up in the bathroom
F
Cause the Badger's got the shits


Chorus:
Bb                               Eb
You may bury me with an enemy in Mount Calvary
Bb                              F
You can stack me on a pyre and soak me down with whiskey
Bb                                 Eb
Roast me to a blackened crisp and throw me in a pile
F
I could really give a shit - I'm going out in style
Bb                            Eb
You can take my urn to Fenway spread my ashes all about
Bb              
Or you can bring me down to Wolly Beach
F
And dump the sucker out
Bb                            Eb          
Burn me to a rotten crisp and toast me for a while
F
I could really give a shit - I'm going out in style

Bb
Make me up dress me up
Eb
Feed me a big old shot
Bb
Of embalming fluid highballs
F
So I don't start to rot
Bb
Now take me to McGreevy's
Eb
I wanna buy one final round
F
That cheap prick would peel an orange in his pocket
F
Then hurry up and suck 'em down

Bb
If there's a god the girls you loved
Eb
Will all come walking through the door
Bb                                      F
Maybe they'll feeld bad for me and this stiff will finally score
Bb
You've got the bed already
Eb
And the nerve and courage too
F
Cause I've be slugging from
F
A stash of Desi Queally's 1980s
F
Bathtub brew

Repeat Chorus--

Spread my ashes all about
Dump the sucker out
Toast me for a while
I'm going out in style

Going Out Of Style

          Well how do you do young Willie McBride,
                 G                       Fm           C
          Do you mind if I sit here down by your graveside,
                         Am           Fm           D7
          And rest for a while in the warm summer sun,
                    G                    Fm          C
          I've been walking all day and I'm nearly done.
          C             Am                  Fm    D7
          I see by your gravestone you were only 19,
                   G                Fm         C G
          When you joined the great fallen in 1916,
               C               Am          D7
          Well I hope you died quick and I hope you died clean,
             G                     Fm        C
          Or Willie McBride was it slow and obscene.


          Chorus:

          C        G
          Did they beat the drum slowly,
	            Fm             C
	  Did they play the fife lowly,
                   G                             Fm           G
          Did they sound the dead march, as they lowered you down,
                  Fm                            C   Am
          Did the band play the last post and chorus,
                  C              Fm              G   C
          Did the pipes play the Flowers of the Forest.


	      C               Am       Fm      D7
          And did you leave a wife or a sweetheart behind,
	      G                       Fm        C
          In some loyal heart is your memory enshrined,
	                 Am           Fm D
          And though you died back in 1916,
	     G                        Fm       C
          To that loyal heart  you're forever 19.
	  C            Am               Fm      D7
          Or are you a stranger without even a name,
	     G    Fm                 C              G
          Forever enshrined behind some old glass pane,
             C           Am             D7
          In an old photograph all torn tattered and stained,
              G                    Fm           C
          And faded to yellow in a brown leather frame.


          Chorus

	      C             Am            Fm               D7
          The sun's shining down on these green fields of France,
	      G                               Fm           C
          The warm wind blows gently and the red poppies dance,
			    Am            Fm         D7
          The trenches have vanished long under the plow
	     G                        Fm           C
          No gas, no barbed wire, no guns firing now.
	      C            Am             Fm               D7
          But here in this graveyard it's still "No Man's Land",
	      G               Fm          C            G
          The countless white crosses in mute witness stand,
	     C           Am              D7
          To man's blind indifference to his fellow man,
	        G                          Fm             C
          And a whole generation that were butchered and damned.


          Chorus

	        C              Am         Fm        D7
          And I can't help but wonder, oh Willie McBride
	     G                      Fm             C
          Do all those who lie here know why they die,
                   Am       Fm                    C
          Did you really believe them when they told you the cause
                    G                       Fm             C
          Did they really believe that this war would end wars.
	              C             Am          Fm         D7
          Well, the suffering, the sorrow, the glory, the shame
	      G           Fm        C               G
          The killing and dying it was all done in vain,
             C        Am           D7
          Oh Willie McBride it all happened again,
              G                  Fm          C
          And again, and again, and again, and again.

Verse 1
      Eb      
We've gathered here, to bid adieu
   Bb
Us Boston boys alas are few
F
Some from crosstown some from coast
   Bb
To give our skipper one last toast
      Eb
We’ll pour the good stuff ‘round his casket
Bb
Drop some coin into the basket
F
Bow our heads and praise the Lord
     F
Then rouse ourselves and strike a chord


Chorus
      Eb
Let’s raise a glass and lift it up
     Bb
Then sip from Jimmy Collins’ cup
    Gm
And hail the lads that won the crown
             F
They brought victory to our grounds
      Eb
Let’s raise a glass and lift it up
     Bb
Then sip from Jimmy Collins’ cup
    F

A doleful damsel I heard cry

Intro

 C
I play in a band 
               F               C  
We're the best in the land
                                            G
We're big in both Chelsea and France
          F                  C                  F                C
I play one mean guitar and then score at the bar
               F                    C                      G 
There's a line of chicks waiting for their chance
      C                                   F                  C
So come on now honey, I'll make you feel pretty
                                                  G 
These other gals mean nothing to me
         F               C                   F                 C 
Let's finish these drinks and be gone for the night
                  F                 C                  Am 
'Cause I'm more than a handfull you'll see 

[Chorus:]
      F                 C
So kiss me, I'm shitfaced
            F                      C             G                F
and i'm soaked and i'm soiled and brown in the trousers, 
       C
She kissed me!
          G     F                     C
And I only bought her one round




         C                        
I can bench press a car
           F               C  
I'm an ex football star
                                                      G
with degrees from both Harvard and Yale
         F                    C   
Girls just can't keep up
         F                C    
I'm a really love machine
              F             C               G
I've had far better sex while in jail
     C                            
I designed the Sears tower
            F                   C 
I make two grand an hour
                                               G
I cook the world's best duck flambe
                  F               C 
I'll take the pick of the litter
               F             C 
And girls jockey for me
            F               C               Am 
I don't need these lines to get laid 

[Chorus]

             C                
I'm the man of the night
           F          C
A real ladies delight
                                                G 
See, my figure was chisled from stone 
         F                 C               F              C  
One more for the gal then I'll escort her home
                 F           C         G
Come last call, I'm never alone
             C                                 F             C
I own a house on the hill with a red water bed
                                                     G 
It puts Hugh Heffnor's mansion to shame
         F                C            F                 C  
With girls by the pool and italian sports cars
               F               C                 Am 
I'm just here in this dump for the game

[Chorus x2]

Ahh, fuck it. Who am I shittin'? 

          C          
I'm a pitiful sight 
          F                 C
And I ain't all that bright
                                            G 
I'm definitly not chisled from stone
          F                C 
I'm a cheat and a liar
        F             C
No woman's desire
        F               G            C 
I'll probably die cold and alone 


                               C
But just give me a chance
                            F
Cause deep down inside
                                         G>
I swear I got a big heart of gold
                               C
I'm a monogamous man
                               F 
No more one night stands
                                                   G>
Come on, honey, let me take you home 

[Chorus x4]

Son keep on working 'til the stars one-day align.

The pictures tell the story, this life has many shades

Shipping Up To Moscow

I'll tell you a story, believe me it's true

a tale you'd best hope, never happens to you,

old spicy mcHaggis, how he met his fate,

you I can save, but for him it's too late

G              C
Spicy was big, burly and strong
G                        D
his pipes were gigantic, and so was his schlong
G                 C
from city to city running around
G                              D
Always looking for chicks over four hundred pounds

G                    C
One night at the pub a girl caught his eye
G               D
big as a house, just the right size
G                      C
the broad was enormous, stacked to the hilt
D                   G
spicy soon noticed a bulge in his kilt
G                   C
the piper delivered his best pick-up line
G                   D
thought to himself, "this beast is all mine"
G                     C
the portly young lady could stand for no more
D                  G
grabbed his cojones and went for the door

G                     C
They got to her house and dimmed all the lights
G                   D
Spicy was in for one hell of a night
G                         C
he said that he loved her, he'd always be true

"But Mr. McHaggis, I've only just met you!!"

G                    C
By now he saw double through his drunken eyes
G                    D
neither had looks or appropriate size
G                      C
he came to his senses, thought to himself,
D                     G
"At this time of night I won't find nothing else"
G                      C
he took off his shirt, she lifted her skirt,
G                        D
they pulled out his unit and stared to flirt
G                      C
she asked for a glove, he gave her a shove,
D                G
had baby McHaggis nine months to-the-day.

(your gonna use the same slide as the intro for "SPICY"!)

SPICY! SPICY! SPICY! SPICY! SPICY! SPICY! SPICY! SPICY!

G                    C
One night at the pub a girl caught his eye
G               D
big as a house, just the right size
G                       C
the broad was enormous, stacked to the hilt
D                  G
spicy soon noticed a bulge in his kilt
G                   C

D                   G
grabbed his cojones and went for the door

G                  C
Three packs a day, he'll smoke 'til he dies
G               D             G
Spicy McHaggis, one hell of a guy!

"I don't know what you all are talking about...and who drank all my beer!?"

True Love finds a kiss beneath fresh mistletoe

He once gave me a nice gift wrapped box full of shit

So I guess I go home 
          Am                     Dm
into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am 
the only love I havent screwed up
A#                  Dm
   She's so hard to please
             Gm      C  
but shes a forest fire
        F               
I do my best to meet her demands
Am
play it romance
         Dm
we slow dance in the living room
    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand
     Am     A#

        Dm         Gm    
Get you wild, make you leave

The truth is, I am toy
                Dm
that people enjoy
                Am               A#
till all of the tricks dont work anymore
Dm              Gm       C
And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive
            A#    Dm
unitl youre gone
Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me
         Am     A# 
You're a liability
          Dm         Gm    C
You're a little much for me"
               F              Am 
So they pull back make other plans
       Dm 
I understand

[Outro]
             Dm           F           A#

Why Cry

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around
                                                Fm                        
Got some extra time think I'll throw some money down
                                                     D
And you follow me around, and you're asking for the time

Your asking what I found 
                         A
think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm
        E
that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york
Fm                                            D
 a  heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine

Up Here

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change


[Chorus]
N.C.                     D
Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no
Bm                          A
We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
No no no no

We like it in the daytime
Bm                 A
We like it in the end of time
N.C.

We like it in the daytime

We like it in the end of time


[Verse 2]
G                        D
Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no
    G              D          Bm    A
And you don't ask for me to change

[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine
G                         D
Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

(Think that we'd be alright)

(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike

Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A

Son, I missed my chance

Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase

Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith

Come Together

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
