INTRO:
    G5  C5    G5      C5      G5
Goodmornin' Da, oh I'm in gaol.
  G5     C5    G5      C5       D5
I don't need you to try for bail.
   C5                 G5
If I know Ma, she'll scream and wail,
        G5              D5              G5
so just lock me up and throw away the key.

VERSE:
         D5             G5
Well goodbye to my own Dublin dear,
         D5             G5
and goodbye to old St. Brigid's there.
                        C5               G5             D5
Well I wasn't born with this, but now I got it like a flu.
            G5                      D5                   G5
I'm fuckin' useless, so what's the point of impressing you?

CHORUS
    G5              C5      G5
Goodmornin' Da, oh I'm in gaol.
  G5                 C5       D5
I don't need you to try for bail.
   C5                 G5
If I know Ma, she'll scream and wail,
        G5              D5              G5
so just lock me up and throw away the key.

VERSE:
Well, I'd only fifteen pints but I could not see,
when them damn skites got a hold of me.
Well, I could say it was the whiskey oh, but that it may not be.
Or just the prospect here of something else to do.

CHORUS

VERSE:
Well I've always been a problem child,
and I know that I have been too wild.
I wasn't born with this, but now I got it like a flu.
I'm fuckin' useless, so what's the point of impressing you?

CHORUS
