While on the road to sweet Athy, Haroo, Haroo
Am Am C C
While on the road to sweet Athy, Huroo, Huroo
C C G G
While on the road to sweet Athy
Am Am Em Em
A A Stick in my Hand, a tear in my eye
C C G G Am Am Em Em
A A doleful damsel I heard cry
Am Am
Johnny I hardly knew ya


Am Am Em Em
Where are the eyes that looked so mild, Hurroo Hurroo
Am Am C C
Where are the eyes that looked so mild, Hurroo Hurroo
C C G G
Where are the eyes that looked so mild
Am Am Em Em
When my poor heart you first beguiled
C C G G Am Am Em Em
Why did ya run from me and the child
Am Am
Johnny I hardly knew ya


[Chorus:]
Am Am Em Em
We had guns and drums and drums and guns, Hurroo Hurroo
Am Am C C
We had guns and drums and drums and guns, Hurroo Hurroo
C C G G
We had guns and drums and drums and guns
Am Am Em Em
The enemy never slew ya
C C G G Am Am Em Em
(No Lyrics------------)
Am Am
Johnny I hardly knew ya

Am Am Em Em
Where are the legs with which you run, Hurroo Hurroo
Am Am C C
Where are the legs with which you run, Hurroo Hurroo
C C G G
Where are the legs with which you run,
Am Am Em Em
When first you went to carry a gun
C C G G Am Am Em Em
Indeed your dancing days are done
Am Am
Johnny I hardly knew ya


[Chorus]

Am Am Em Em
You hadn't an arm, you hadn't a leg, Hurroo Hurroo
Am Am C C
You hadn't an arm, you hadn't a leg, Hurroo Hurroo
C C G G
You hadn't an arm, you hadn't a leg
Am Am Em Em
You're a spinless, boneless, chickenless egg
C C G G Am Am Em Em
You'll Have to put with the bowl to beg
Am Am
Johnny I hardly knew ya


[Chorus]

Am Am Em Em
I'm happy for to see ya home, Hurroo Hurroo
Am Am C C
I'm happy for to see ya home, Hurroo Hurroo
C C G G
I'm happy for to see ya home
Am Am Em Em
From the isle of Ceylon
C C G G Am Am Em Em
(no lyrics------)
Am Am
Johnny I hardly knew ya


[Chorus]
