ERIN'S FLAG

Give [G] me the flag of [D] Ireland boys, let [G] Irish [C] breezes [G] blow
Around it blows fervent [C] eyes, [D] defiance to the hold (?)
Let no one weep for true men [C] fought to [D] make their country [C] free
The flag [Am] that James [D] Connelly loved is [G] good [C] enough for [G] me

Give me the flag of Munster boys, to victory lead us on
From rebel Cork, of Kerry boys, of Claireman carry on
Tell them in Tipperary town, the North will yet be free
The flag that Munster heroes loved is good enough for me

Give me the flag of Connaught boys and westward let her blow
Give me the flying columns and Tom Lumpert and the Gaul (?)
God be with ancient Galway land, your sons of victory
The flag that volunteers did love is good enough for me

Give me the flag of Ulster boys, for that's Ireland's flag also
We love them yet and we won't forget Red Hugh and Owen Gold (?)
For soon there breathes on Irish soil the soul of liberty
The flag that Ireland's martyrs loved is good enough for me
