verse 1: 

   G         C          G               D 
I grew up in Ireland in dear old Dublin town 

G               C                G                D 
brought up by a people who`d let nothing get them down 

Em                 C                G               D 
I was taught while still a child to stand up for me rights 

Em                  C                G               D 
Prepare to face the devil that would plague me in my life 

verse 2: 

I served a long apprenticeship a very honest trade 
and met so many devils of whom I felt afraid 
But fathers words came back to me when I wanted to back down 
I looked each devil in the eye and boldly stood me ground 



         G               C         G                 D                
        Stand up to your devils or they`ll walk over you 
           G               C              G               D 
        remember, son, the devils come in many shapes and hues 
                Em            C             G             D 
        There`s devil that is handsome, the devil that is mean 
        Em                C           G                 D    
        Some of them look scruffy and some look far too clean 

verse 3: 

I tried me hand at courting and women found me sweet 
Until I met McKenna who knocked me off my feet 
Oh Lord was she a lover with a temper of a shrew 
She not just knocked me off me feet, she knocked me black and blue 

verse 4: 

Sure she was a devil dressed up in Angel`s guise 
When you`d least expect a cloud she`d hit you `tween the eyes 
She started talking marriage each time she looked at me 
I felt 'twas time I got to know the devils of the sea 

- Chorus 

verse 5: 

I waved my hand and said goodbye as ship pulled from the quay 
Adventure layed before me and so did seven seas 
I travelled many ocean miles and found from east to west  
The devils you are safest with are those that you know best 

- Chorus
