The same craic, no, nothing new

One that, you haven't seen around here

In a land so green

The same thing every Friday night

Nothings cheap and the moneys tight

How long have you been fed up
Em7 Cadd9
Did you sail, sail away

You don't know what the future holds
Em7 D
In the nest that your parents made

With no gaffs in the emerald isle

You can't leave, your the mothers child

But this battle it can't be won
Em7 Cadd9
So you sail, sail away

Familiar faces, the local pub

The carry on, the laughs, they'll happen still

No mass on a Sunday morn
Em7 Cadd9
You haven't been since your cousin was born

How long have you been fed up

So you sail, sail away
[Bridge]
Em7 D
Feeling low, feeling down under
Cadd9 D
You wanna stay but you think you'll suffer
Em7 D
Feeling low, feeling down under
Cadd9 D
You can help that it makes you wonder
Em7 D
You feel low, you feel down under
Cadd9 D
Its only rain in an Irish summer
Em7 D
You feel low, you feel down under
Cadd9 D
As long as your home for your supper
[Chorus]
G D
How long have you been fed up
Em7 Cadd9
Did you sail, sail away
G D
You don't know what the future holds
Em7 D
In the nest that your parents made
G D
With no gaffs in the emerald isle

But this battle it can't be won
Em7 Cadd9
So you sail, sail away

You sail, sail away.
