Chord/Tab song: Every Dog Has Its Day

Chord,Tablature, lyric, sheet, guitar, ukulele song: Every Dog Has Its Day - ( Top o' the morning to ye! This is my first tab I've submi...)

--
Top o' the morning to ye! This is my first tab I've submitted; it's a
ridiculously simple song by the greatest, most high-energy band ever. As such,
it must be played furiously (except for a few parts for contrast) with lightning
quick down-up strumming. I'll add a few notes on dynamics, but this is quite a
simple song. Enjoy it!

Flogging Molly

Verse 1:
(slow, 3/4 time) C G C G
Well, I've drunk to drown on every ocean I've been
Lake Tangan[C]yika,[G] where the crocodiles s[Dm]wim[G]
(fast 4/4) C G C G
Halifax, Nova Scotia to Van Diemen's land
Well I drank with the S[C]ultan [G] down the Suez Ca[Dm]nl[G]

Chorus:
Cause every d[C]og has it's[G] day
Like every w[C]oman, she gets her own w[G]ay
And if there's a[C] ship that sails t[G]onight
I'll captain that,[F] too... just to be there with[C] you[G][C][G]

Verse 2:

Well there was old Jerry R[C]ooney, [G] who was mad as a m[C]ule[G]
Spillblood Mal[C]oney [G] had a head like one, t[Dm]oo[G]
That night on the br[C]idge [G] with my shovel in h[C]and[G]
Well he threatened to k[C]ill me [G] I'm sure he picked the wron[Dm]g man[G]

CHORUS

Verse 3:
Well there was mutiny in L[C]agos [G] aboard the mean ship Skond[C]i[G]
Ten or twelve days in pr[C]ison [G] till the bastards set me f[Dm]ree

(very slow) C G C G
Goodbye mother Theresa I hope the kids settle down
I must head for the Ch[C]inas [G] Pray to God I don't [Dm]drown[G]

CHORUS X3

End on C chord

That's the whole song. Ideally you'd have drums, fiddle, and mandolin to fill
out the sound a bit, but this is a wonderful song as it is. Remember to pick up
the pace for the ending choruses, and have fun with it!
