Come Out Ye Black & Tans Chords by The Wolfe Tones

[Start]

[Verse]
Cm                              
■  I was born on a Dublin street
Bb                           
Where the Royal drums do beat
Cm                           
And those loving English feet
                Cm     
They walked all over us
          Eb          
And every single night
Bb                    Gm        
When me da would come home tight
Cm              Bb                 Cm         
He'd invite the neighbors out with this chorus


[Chorus]
                   Cm      
Come out you black and tans
         Bb                     
Come out and fight me like a man
Cm                                                
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
     Eb             
Tell her how the IRA
Bb                Gm       
Made you run like hell away
Cm                 Bb              Cm          
From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra


[Verse]
Cm                       
Come let us hear you tell
Bb                             
How you slandered great Pernell
Cm                                            
When you fought them well and truly persecuted
Eb                            
Where are the smears and jeers
Bb                  Gm     
That you loudly let us hear
     Cm                                  
When our leaders of sixteen were executed


[Chorus]
Cm                         
Come out you black and tans
     Bb                         
Come out and fight me like a man
Cm                                                
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
Eb                  
Tell her how the IRA
Bb                     Gm  
Made you run like hell away
Cm                                             
From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra


[Verse]
                 Cm      
Come tell us how you slew
Bb                       
Them old Arabs two by two
Cm                                               
Like the Zulus they had spears and bow and arrows
                Eb       
How bravely you faced one
Bb                Gm         
With your sixteen pounder gun
Cm                      Bb              Cm          
And you frightened them damn natives to their marrow


[Chorus]
                   Cm      
Come out you black and tans
Bb                              
Come out and fight me like a man
Cm                                                
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
Eb                  
Tell her how the IRA
Bb                     Gm  
Made you run like hell away
                   Bb              Cm          
From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra
Cm                         
Now the time is coming fast
Bb                            
And I think them days are here
Cm                                          
When each English hun and heel run before us
Eb                    
And if there be a need
Bb                              
Then our kids will sing Godspeed
Cm                                            
With a verse or two of singing this one chorus
Cm                         
Come out you black and tans
         Bb                     
Come out and fight me like a man
Cm                                                
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders
Eb                  
Tell her how the IRA
Bb                     Gm  
Made you run like hell away
Cm                 Bb              Cm          
From the green and lovely lanes of Killashandra
Bb Cm Eb Bb Gm Cm Bb
