The Pogues is a band of mixed Irish and English background, playing traditional Irish music with influences from punk rock and folk, formed in 1982 and fronted by Shane MacGowan. The band reached international prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. MacGowan left the band in 1991 due to drinking problems but the band continued first with Joe Strummer and then with Spider Stacy on vocals before breaking up in 1996.[1] The band reformed in 2001, and has been playing regularly ever since

I first heard this song when I saw the movie 'Basquiat'. I'm more into punk/ska and electronica, but I think this is one of my favorite songs. Comments? It's my first time transcribing, so if I screwed up anywhere email to [email protected]
