Вступление
[Intro]
C F C G C
[Verse 1]
C F C
There's a man down the road in a neat abode
G
And he's thinking of heading for London
C F C
He's lost his job, he's stuck for a bob
G C
But there's no use in grumbling
[Verse 2]
C F C
He called today asking "What would you say
G
I was thinking of emigrating
C F C
And I know that you have been there too
G C
Could you help my situation?"
[Verse 3]
C F C
Well I said 'tis true that you're fifty two
G
And you've never passed Ennistymon
C F
Where would you be going this time of your life
C G C
Without a bell on your bi-cycle?
[Chorus]
F
You'd miss the ceilis in the hall
C G
The dog and piebald asses
C F
You'd be better off sitting at home by the fire
C G C
Drawing little men in the ashes
[Verse 4]
C F C
Living in the smoke it is no joke
G
For the times they are a-changing
C F C
From Pakistan to far Japan
G C
Sure they come from every nation
[Verse 5]
F C
There's Jews and Muslims, Quakers too
G
Shi'ites and neo-fascists
C F
You'd be better off sitting at home by the fire
C G C
Drawing little men in the ashes
[Chorus]
F
You'd miss the ceilis in the hall
C G
The dog and piebald asses
C F
You'd be better off sitting at home by the fire
C G C
Drawing little men in the ashes
[Break]

[Verse 6]
C F C
I knew a dozen lads like you
G
Who thought they'd make a million
C F C
They're back with their tails between their legs
G C
Sure they hardly have a shilling
[Verse 7]
C F C
You can't turn back the clock old chap
G
Or in the air build castles
C F
You'd be better off sitting at home by the fire
C G C
Drawing little men in the ashes
[Chorus]
F
You'd miss the ceilis in the hall
C G
The dog and piebald asses
C F
You'd be better off sitting at home by the fire
C G C
Drawing little men in the ashes
[Chorus]
F
And you'd miss the ceilis in the hall
C G
The dog and piebald asses
C F
You'd be better off sitting at home by the fire
C G C
Drawing little men in the ashes
[Outro]

You'd be better off sitting at home by the fire
