I was [Am baritone chordAm] born in a Dublin street where the [G baritone chordG] loyal drums do beat
And the [Am baritone chordAm] loving English feet they tramped all over us
And [C baritone chordC] each day and every night when my [G baritone chordG] father comes home tight
He'd [Am baritone chordAm] invite the neighbours [G baritone chordG] outside with this [Am baritone chordAm] chorus

[chorus]
Oh come[Am baritone chordAm] out ye Black and Tans, come out and [G baritone chordG] fight me like a man
Show your [Am baritone chordAm] wives how you won medals down in Flanders
Tell [C baritone chordC] them how the IRA made you [G baritone chordG] run like hell away
From the [Am baritone chordAm] green and lovely [G baritone chordG] lanes in Kille[Am baritone chordAm]shandra

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_wolfetones/come_out_ye_black_and_tans_crd.html ]
Come let [Am baritone chordAm] me hear you tell how you've [G baritone chordG] slung the brave Parnell
When you [Am baritone chordAm] thought him well and truly persecuted
Where [C baritone chordC] are your sneers and jeers that you [G baritone chordG] loudly let us hear
When [Am baritone chordAm] our heroes of [G baritone chordG] '16 were [Am baritone chordAm] executed

Alan [Am baritone chordAm] Larkin and O`Brian held you [G baritone chordG] strong and called you swine
Robert [Am baritone chordAm] Emmett who you hung and drew and quartered
High [C baritone chordC] upon the scaffold high, how you [G baritone chordG] butchered Henry Joy
And [Am baritone chordAm] the Croppy Boys of [G baritone chordG] Wexford you did [Am baritone chordAm] slaughter


Oh let me [Am baritone chordAm] hear you slew them poor [G baritone chordG] Arabs two by two
Like the [Am baritone chordAm] Zulus they had spears and bows and arrows
How [C baritone chordC] you bravely faced each one with your [G baritone chordG] sixteen-pounder gun
And [Am baritone chordAm] you've frightened them poor [G baritone chordG] natives to their [Am baritone chordAm] marrows

(additional verse)
Well the [Am baritone chordAm] day is closing fast and the [G baritone chordG] time will soon be past
When each [Am baritone chordAm] dawning will be cast aside afore us
And [C baritone chordC] if I be in need then me kids [G baritone chordG] will say godspeed
With [Am baritone chordAm] a bar or two of Stephen [G baritone chordG] Behan`s [Am baritone chordAm] chorus

About this song: Come Out Ye Black And Tans

A few years ago (c. 1996) I was driving through Western Eire an came upon a town market. As I rambled around the venders tables I saw an old man selling cassette tapes from a van display. I asked his advice on some traditional folk music that may help me understand the troubles once seen in the republic. He quickley hopped up in the van and after rumaging and shuffling with stacks of tapes he jumped out with a hand full. I bought them all with no questions asked. Read more on Last.fm.
