Tonart: Bb major•
Verse 1
Bb
Now the whole business of Irish
nationalism
can get very serious if you're
not careful.
Eb
But there is a light side to it, fortunately.
Bb
As most of you know,
Bb
Ireland was under the loving care and
tender care of the British Empire.
And for this, needless to say
we're very very grateful.
We like occasionally to sing
a song of gratitude.
It's called God Bless England.
B
Bb
Oh, I'll tell you a tale of peace and love,
White Father did
love the died O'Day.
Of the land that rules our lands above,
White Father did love the died O'Day.
Gm
May peace and plenty be her share,
Eb
Bb
Who kept our homes from want and care
Oh, God bless England is our prayer
Whack for the diddle -a -dee -do -dee
Whack for the diddle -a -dee -do -dee
Eb
F
So we say, hip -hooray
Bb
Come and listen while we pray
Whack for the diddle -a -dee -do -dee
Now our fathers oft
were naughty boys
Whack for the diddle -a -dee -do -dee
For pikes and guns are dangerous
toys
Whack for the diddle on the diddle day
Eb
Gm
At Bannanaboo and at Peter's Hill
Eb
Bb
We made poor England cry her fill
But old Britannia loves us still
Whack for the diddle on the diddle day
Whack for the diddle on the diddle day
Eb
Bb
So we say, every day
God bless England, so we pray
Whack for the diddle on the diddle
day
Now, when we were savage,
fierce and wild,
Whack for the diddle of the diddle -o -day.
Oh, she came as a mother to her child,
Whack for the diddle of the diddle -o -day.
Gm
She gently raised us from the slime,
Eb
Bb
And kept our hands from hellish crime,
And she sent us to heaven in
our own good time.
Whack for the diddle of the diddle -o -day.
Whack for the diddle
of the diddle -o -day.
Eb
F
So we say, hef -a -ray,
Bb
God bless England,
so we pray
Whack for the diddle of the day -doe
-day
Oh now Irishmen, forget the past
Whack for the diddle of the day -doe -day
And think of the day that's
coming fast
Whack for the diddle of the day -doe
-day
When we shall all be civilised
Gm
Eb
Neat and clean, and well advised
Bb
Oh won't Mother England be
surprised
Whack for the diddle
of the day, Lordy!
Whack for the
diddle of the day, Lordy!
Eb
F
So we say, heavenly!
Bb
God bless England, so we pray!
Whack for the diddle of the day, Lordy!
