IRISH ASTRONOMY chrom
By: C.G. Hapline
Irish-American folk song
Key: G

-5 7  7   7  7  6  -5  -5
O’ Ry-an was a man of might
 -5   7   7   -7 -7 -8  7
When Ire-land was a na-tion
-8    8    8  -8  -8    -7    7   -6*
But poach-ing was his heart’s de-light
-5   6   -5   -4 -5 6   -5
And con-stant oc-cu-pa-tion
-5   7   7   7  -5 6  -5  -5
He owned an old mi-li-tia gun
-5   7   7    -7  -7  -8   7
And cer-tain sure his aim was
-8  8    8   -8   7  -7 -7 7 -6*
He gave the keep-ers man-y a run
-5  -5  6  -5   -4  -5   6    -5
For he did-n’t care for game laws
