***BACK IN THE COUNTY HELL - Shane MacGowan
from the album "The Crock Of Gold"
Back In The County Hell - as perfomed by Shane MacGowan and The Popes
[D] [A] [D] [A] [E] [E7] [A]
AWell oh well I'm back in the county hell
I Djust flew in and my arms they feel like Ahell
EI'm so glad to E7be back in the county Ahell
I Amissed the smack, I missed the crack, I missed the killings too
I Dmissed the London Irish girls Abut especially missed you
The EUSA never fails to make me Ablue
Put Dme in charge I?d execute the AArtistic Queers
and Dall the fuckin bastards that drink Atrendy Irish beers
My Ddeath squads would be kids from flats all Ahigh from sniffing glue
EI'd use them to E7kill rich brits and the high city Ajews.
The Dpark bench Aristrocrats were Adrinking in the park
And the Djunkies are still sneaking in for Afix up after dark
And DJock laid out on his park bench like it Awas his home settee
ESinging like a E7fallen angel, me and Bobby McAGee
[D] [A] [E] [E7] [A]
[D] [A] [E] [E7] [E7] [E] [E7] [A]
When I've Adone my patriotic chore and burnt London to the ground
I'll go Dback home to Nenagh and get pissed every night in Atown
Like the Eol' folks say, you E7can't keep a good man Adown
And the Dpark bench Aristrocrats still Adrinking in the park
The Djunkies are still sneaking in for Afix up after dark
DJock's still layed out on his park bench like it Awas his own settee
ESinging like a E7fallen angel, me and Bobby McAGee
DFreedom's just another word for Anothing left to lose
ENothin ain't worth E7nothin if ain't Afree
DFeelin good was easy Lord when ABobby sang the blues
EFeelin good was E7good enough for E7me
EGood enough for E7me and Bobby McAGee  E  A
