Dropkick Murphys - Johnny I hardly knew ya
Tabbed by Sebastian Salomon

     Em                             Bm
When on the road to sweet Athy, Hurroo Hurroo
     Em                             G
When on the road to sweet Athy, Hurroo Hurroo
     G                D
When on the road to sweet Athy
  Em                   Bm
A stick in the hand, A drop in the eye
   G       D     Em      Bm
A doleful damsel I heard cry
Em
Johnny I hardly knew ya


      Em                                    Bm
Where are the eyes that looked so mild, Hurroo Hurroo
      Em                                    G
Where are the eyes that looked so mild, Hurroo Hurroo
      G                  D
Where are the eyes that looked so mild
     Em                Bm
When my poor heart you first beguiled
G          D         Em         Bm
Why did ya run from me and the child
Em
Johnny I hardly knew ya


[Chorus:] 
       Em                                    Bm
We had guns and drums and drums and guns, Hurroo Hurroo
       Em                                    G
We had guns and drums and drums and guns, Hurroo Hurroo
       G                  D
We had guns and drums and drums and guns
    Em          Bm
The enemy never slew ya

G  D  Em Bm

Em
Johnny I hardly knew ya



Where are the legs with which you run,
Hurroo Hurroo
Where are the legs with which you run,
Hurroo Hurroo
Where are the legs with which you run,
When first you went to carry a gun
Indeed your dancing days are done
Johnny I hardly knew ya

[Chorus]

You hadn't an arm, you hadn't a leg,
Hurroo Hurroo
You hadn't an arm, you hadn't a leg,
Hurroo Hurroo
You hadn't an arm, you hadn't a leg
You're a spinless, boneless, chickenless egg
You'll Have to be put with the bowl to beg
Johnny I hardly knew ya

[Chorus]

I'm happy for to see ya home,
Hurroo Hurroo
I'm happy for to see ya home,
Hurroo Hurroo
I'm happy for to see ya home
From the isle of Ceylon
Johnny I hardly knew ya

[Chorus]
