The Dublin Minstrel

G  D      A       D

{verse]
        A   D                 D7 
From Dublin streets and roads - 
            G
and down the years
             D                A7
Came great musicians and balladeers
            D           D7    
There was a special one - a red 
         G
haired minstrel boy
            D                  
And when he passed away, a city 
 A       A7              D
mourned - it's favorite son

[Chorus]
    A                              
All round the markets and down the 
G
quays
             D                  A 
The sad news spread to the 
   A7
Liberties
             D           D7    
The minstrel boy is gone - he'll 
          G
sing no more,
             D                  
And Luke somehow we know - we'll 
       A   A7           D
never see - your like again.

[Verse]
            D                      
He liked to laugh and sing, and he 
          G
loved his jar
               D                 A
His songs rang out in every city bar
                   D             
As I walked by the old canal near 
          G
where he used to live
            D                      
Down Raglan Road I'm sad as he'd so
 A    A7              D
 much - still left to give

[Chorus]
    A         D                    
All round the markets and down the 
G
quays
             D                  A 
The sad news spread to the 
   A7

             D           D7    
The minstrel boy is gone - he'll

sing no more,
             D                  
And Luke somehow we know - we'll 
       A   A7           D

[Verse]
        A       D           
Now the show is over, and the 
            G
curtain's down
           D                      
A flame no longer burns in Dublin 
A
Town
              D                  
But while the Liffy flows beneath 
     G
the Ha'penny bridge
            D                    
You'll be remembered Luke for all 
      A     A7            D
your songs - and all you did

[Chorus]
    A         D                    
All round the markets and down the 
G
quays
             D                  A 
The sad news spread to the 
   A7
Liberties
             D                     
The minstrel boy is gone,he'll sing
    G
 no more,
             D                  
And Luke somehow we know - we'll 
       A   A7           D
never see - your like again.

    G        D                 
And Luke somehow we know - we'll 
        A   A7           D    G  D
never see - your like again.
