Biography:
Dropkick Murphys is a punk rock band formed in Quincy, Massachusetts, United States in 1996. First playing together in the basement of a friend's barbershop, the band made a name for itself because of its relentless touring and for its annual St. Patrick's Day weekend shows in Boston. The band's songs often deal with Celtic influences, and the working-class environment in which the band members grew up.
The band put out a series of EPs and was signed by Rancid frontman Tim Armstrong's label Hellcat Records.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
I have re submitted this not because the other version is wrong because it isn't.
I was struggling with the way that it is laid out and decided to 're do' it. I have placed the chords
in the correct positions and pull a little more on each line to reduce the need to move the screen
up as often. I have also made a few very small corrections to the lyrics.
Fantastic song by a great band
Intro: Am C G Am X2
[Verse 1]
Am C
The pictures tell the story, this life has many shades
G Am
I’d wake up every morning and before I’d start each day
Am C
I’d take a drag from last nights cigarette that smoldered in it’s tray
G Dm Am
And down a little something, then be on my way
[Verse 2]
Am C
I traveled far and wide and laid this head in many ports
G Am
I was guided by a compass, I saw beauty to the north
Am C
I drew the tales of many lives and wore the faces of my own
G Dm
I had these memories all around me so I wouldn’t be alone
[Chorus]
C G Dm Am
Some may be from showing up, others are from growing up, sometimes I was so messed up and didn’t have a clue
C G Dm Am
I ain’t winning no one over, I wear it just for you, I got your name written here in a rose tattoo
Am C G Am
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo, I got your name written here in a rose tattoo
Intro: Am C G Am
[Verse 3]
Am C
This ones for the mighty sea, mischief, gold and piracy
G Am
This ones for the man that raised me, taught me sacrifice and bravery
Am C
This ones for our favorite game, black and gold, we wave the flag
G Dm
This ones for my family name, with pride I wear it to the grave
[Chorus]
C G Dm Am
Some may be from showing up, others are from growing up, sometimes I was so messed up and didn’t have a clue
C G Dm Am
I ain’t winning no one over, I wear it just for you, I got your name written here in a rose tattoo
Am C G Am
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo, I got your name written here in a rose tattoo
C G Dm Am
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo, I got your name written here in a rose tattoo
[Break]
F C
This one means the most to me it stays here for eternity
G Am
A ship that always stays the course, an anchor for my every choice
F C
A rose that shines down from above, I signed and sealed these words in blood
G G
I heard them once, sung in a song, it played again and we sang along
[Intro] Am C G Am
Am C
You’ll always be here with me, even if you’re gone
G Dm
You’ll always have my love, our memory will live on
[Chorus]
C G Dm Am
Some may be from showing up, others are from growing up, sometimes I was so messed up and didn’t have a clue
C G Dm Am
I ain’t winning no one over, I wear it just for you, I got your name written here in a rose tattoo
Am C G Am
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo, I got your name written here in a rose tattoo
Am C G Am
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo, with pride I’ll wear it to the grave for you
C G Dm Am
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo, I got your name written here in a rose tattoo
C G Dm Am
In a rose tattoo, in a rose tattoo, signed and sealed in blood I would die for you
