Chorus 
FF We Irish love to sing
BbF We Irish love to dance
FF We Irish love to party
BbG Whener' we get the chance
FF We have a lot of troubles
BbF But we have a lot of soul
BbF We'll drink a pint of Guiness
|GC |F And forget about our woes
CF |GC |F Ei-ee-ei, ei-ee-ei, we Irish are the best
CF |GC |F Ei-ee-ei, ei-ee-ei, we Irish are the best
---------------------------------------------------------- 
FF We love our myths and stories
BbF We love a mournful song
FF We love our joyful music
BbG And a good old sing-a-long
FF We love our pennywhistle
BbF Uilleann pipes and air bodhrán
BbF We Irish love our football
|GC |F Our heros and our homes
FF We Irish love St. Patty
We got a pub on every corner 
BbF We love to celebrate
And a church to worship in 
FF And nothing suits us better than
We party hard then pray the Lord 
BbG An all-out green parade
Forgive us of our sins 
FF Green beer and hats and jackets
We rid ourselves of grief and guilt 
BbF Green dresses, shirts and ties
Relieve our troubled hearts 
BbF And nothing could be brighter
I know God loves the Irish 
|GC |F Than the light in Irish eyes
And accepts us as we are
