The Dublin Fusiliers

            F               C7    
Well you've heard about the 
             F              C7
Indians with their tommyhawks and 
spears
    F           Bb          Gm7  
And of the U.N. warriors the 
             C7
heroes of recent years
F            C7          F      
Also I might mention the British
        C7
 Grenadiers
     Bb                 F         
Well none of them were in it but 
   C7          F
the Dublin Fusiliers.
       Dm
You've heard about the Light Brigade
 and of the deeds they've done,
     C
And of the other regiments that many
 vic'tries won
        F                C7   
But the pride of all the armies 
     F                C7
Dragoons and Carabiniers
         Bb                 F
Was that noble band of Warriors, the
 Dublin Fusiliers.

[Chorus]
F
With your left foot and right about 
face this is the way we go
Bb                  F            
Charging with fixed bayonets the 
Gm7             C7
terror of every foe.
  F
A glory to old Ireland as proud as 
buccaneers
      Bb                 F     
And a terror to creation are the 
                   Bb  F  C7  F
Dublin Fusiliers.

F                           C7   
Well you've heard about the wars 
             F               C7
between the Russians and the Brits.
     F                Bb          
The Tsar' one day was reading an 
   Gm7         C7
old copy of 'Titbits'
     F               C7          
And when the General came to him 
F                         C7
and threw himself down in tears
Bb                         F     
'We'd better run back like 
             C7          F
blazes, here's the Dublin 
Fusiliers.'
    Dm
The Tsar' commenced to tremble and 
he bit his underlip..
  C
Begorra boys, says he, I think we 
better take the tip
    F
The devil's come from Dublin and to 
judge from what I hears
        Bb                F
They're demons of militia men, the 
Dublin Fusiliers.


[Chorus]
F
With your left foot and right about 
face this is the way we go
Bb                  F            
Charging with fixed bayonets the 
Gm7             C7
terror of every foe.
  F
A glory to old Ireland as proud as 
buccaneers
      Bb                 F     
And a terror to creation are the 
                   Bb  F  C7  F
Dublin Fusiliers.

[Verse 3]
            F                 C7  
Well the sergeant cried, 'Get 
            F                   C7
ready lads, lay down each sword and 
gun,
     F                 Bb      
Take off you shoes and stockings 
            Gm7                C7
boys, and when I tell youse, run.
     F               C7        
They didn't stop but started and 
   F                   C7
amidst three ringing cheers,
N.C.                                
         C7          F
Came a shower of bricks and bullets 
from the Dublin Fusiliers.
Dm
The time that Julius Caesar tried to
 land down at Ringsend
C
The coastguards couldn't stop them, 
so for the Dublins they did send,
     F
And, just as they were landing, 
lads, we heard three ringing cheers:
     Bb                       F
'Get back to Rome like blazes here's
 the Dublin Fusiliers.


[Chorus]
F
With your left foot and right about 
face this is the way we go
Bb                  F            
Charging with fixed bayonets the 
Gm7             C7
terror of every foe.
  F
A glory to old Ireland as proud as 
buccaneers
      Bb                 F
And a terror to creation are the 
Dublin Fusiliers.
