C F C F C F [Verse 1]
C F I met her up on Leeson Street of a
C F Tuesday afternoon
C F C In Summer's fallen colours,
F sulking back to school
C F I asked her would she linger, She
C F asked me would i stay
C F Would i keep a girl in company,
C F drinking in the day? [Chorus]
C F Drinking, drinking
C F Drinking... not thinking
C F Drinking, drinking
C F We'll go drinking in the day [Verse 2]
C F She was almost a woman, she was
C F going on sixteen
C F C She asked me to go walking, In
F Saint Stephen's Green
C F She said I love the sunshine, and
C F to hear the children play.
C F But I won't be distracted when I'm
C F drinking in the day. [Verse 3]
C F With her flashing eyes and milk
C F white lies she looked like a song
C F Like the ghost of a woman that
C F first made me go wrong
C F She said I'll have a drink with
C F you I said you'll have to pay
C F For a comprehensive education,
C F Drinking in the day [Chorus]
C F Drinking, drinking
C F Drinking... not thinking
C F Drinking, drinking
C F We'll go drinking in the day

[Verse 4]
C F If her mother could have seen us
C F on that bright November day
C F Botticelli and his angel
C F perambulating Ormand Quay
C F A drunken blessed virgin, me
C F rhetorious and gay
C F C Bestowing ancient wisdom as to
F what made me this way [Verse 5]
C F Deny your friends and family, To
C F serve you must betray
C F C Break and enter heaven, Steal
F but never save
C F C Squander every penny, Empty every
F heart
C F Travel every darkened road, Never
C F finish what you start
C F Always talk to strangers, Make
C F love with whom you may
C F For God will find good company,
C F for your drinking in the day [Chorus]
C F Drinking, drinking
C F Drinking... not thinking
C F Drinking, drinking
C F We'll go drinking in the day [Verse 6]
C F So spend your youth on poetry, and
C F spend your cash at play
C F Each line upon my face is for a
C F girl who went away
C F A kiss, a song, are fleeting
C F things and fame will always stray
C F So I'll tell the truth, the best
C spent youth, is the one you give
F away [Chorus]
C F Drinking, drinking
C F Drinking... not thinking
C F Drinking, drinking
C F We'll go drinking in the day
C F Drinking, drinking
C F Drinking... not thinking
C F Drinking, drinking
C F We'll go drinking in the day
C F Drinking, drinking
C F Drinking... not thinking
C F Drinking, drinking
C F We'll go drinking in the day
C F Drinking, drinking
C F Drinking... not thinking
C F Drinking, drinking
C F We'll go drinking in the day
C F Drinking, drinking
C F Drinking... not thinking
C F Drinking, drinking
C F We'll go drinking in the day
C F Drinking, drinking
C F Drinking... not thinking
C F Drinking, drinking
C F We'll go drinking in the day
