[Am]rish men and [G]Irish wom[Am]en, in the name of [G]God and of the [Am]dead
From which she re[G]ceives her old tra[Am]ditions
Now
summons her [G]children to her flag
Chorus
[C]Now we [G]strike for her [F]freed[G]om
[C]As generations have [G]done be[F]fore[G]
[F]Now we`re taking back our co[C]untry once a[Am]gain
A sovereign na[G]tion ever[Am] more
We declare the right of the people, religious and civil liberty
And for all our children, opportunity
In this new
Ireland of the free
Chorus
And to all our leaders who betrayed us
An act of treason is your crime
The proclamation of independence
Of
1916`s on my mind
Chorus
(Same chords as chorus)
Now we strike for our freedom
And we tell the euro to go to hell
And to
all our leaders
you`ve had your chance and it`s gone
tell France and Germany as well
Chorus
