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.

Intro - clean, single picked
D#G#A#
Verse 1 - kick in with full distortion
G# Ricky and Gar
Well, they took it too far D# They didn't make it A# They didn't make it
G# Chrissy and Stage
Though they made no mistakes D# They didn't make it A# They didn't make it
G# Whether living with hope
or at the end of the rope D# It isn't written in stone A# When the futures unknown G# And though some do atone
Through no fault of their own D# They fall through the cracks A# And get left by the wayside
[Chorus:] (watch out to get the timing on the "god" right, the chorus dynamics stand and fall with that!)
D#G#A#D# God willing, It's the last time I'll say goodbye D#G#A#D# God willing, I'll see you on the other side G# It's the last time I'll put my arms around you D#A# The last time I'll look into your eyes D#G# I've come here to put my arms around you A#D# And say one final goodbye D#G#A#D# Yeah, I'll see you on the otherside
Chuck and Fly They were really good guys They didn't make it They didn't make it
Laura so sweet and Kenny right in his sleep They didn't make it They didn't make it
So as you walk out the door Take care, and always be sure That the ones in your life Know that you love them tonight Fate has one guarantee And we all must agree That the best laid plans May all change by tomorrow
[Chorus]
Ending
