Intro:

D/A

Verse 1:

D
 Sean, I'd say the best one,
Came from Tupelo, Mississippi,
I'll tell you now that grown men cry;
    G     A         D
And Irish girls are pretty.

Bridge 1:

D       G      A      D
 Ah-hai-A, hai-A, hai-A,
    D      G      A      D
Hai-A, hai-A, hai-A, hai-A.

Chorus 1:

       D        Dmaj7    G
Though fear and hurt and care,
    Em      A7     D
Can lead me to des-pair.

D      Dmaj7   G    Em
 I saw why I'm here,
    A              D
The morning you ap-peared.

Verse 2:

D
 Sean, I sat awhile on clouds,
To ask God if he's living.
I should have spent the time on knees,
   G          A         D
In thanks for what he's given.

Bridge 2:

D       G      A      D
 Ah-hai-A, hai-A, hai-A,
    D      G      A      D
Hai-A, hai-A, hai-A, hai-A.

Chorus 2:

     D       Dmaj7     G
From parents smart and strong,
   Em      A7        D
To both of us passed on.

     D        Dmaj7     G    Em
From kings is where you come,
        A                     D     Bm
Through daughters and through sons,
        A                     D
Through daughters and through sons.

Coda:

D
 Sean, I'd say the best one,
Came from Tupelo, Mississippi
I'll tell you now that grown men cry;
    G     A         D
And Irish girls are pretty.
