[Verse 1]

C#m
Marchin' down O'Connell street

C#m
With a Starry Plough on high

E B
Here comes the Citizen's Army

A B
With their fists raised to the sky

C#m
And leadin' them was a mighty man

C#m
With a mad rage in his eye

E B
"My name is James Connolly

A B
I didn't come here to die"

[Pre-Chorus]

A
But to fight for the rights of the workin' man

E B
The small farmer too

A
To protect the proletariat

E B
From the bosses and their screws

[Chorus]

C#m
So hold onto your rifles, boys

C#m A
Don't give up the dream

A A

E B
A Republic for the workin' class

A

Economic...

A E
liberty!

[Verse 2]

C#m
Then Jem cries out, "Oh, citizens

C#m
This system is a curse
