Here's an attempt at the Oysterband's arrangement of "Rambling Irishman". I believe the chords are right, but I may have the tuning off. They stay mostly with the bass strings and mostly use downstrokes. I have no idea what the language the chorus is in or what it means - any help is appreciated. Very cool song though.
Tuning low to high - DADGBD
Chords D 000230 A x02220 G 5x0030 Bm x24430
Long instrumental intro not done.
DGD I am a rambling Irishman
GDA In Ulster I was born
DGD And many happy hours I spent
GAD On the banks of sweet Lough Erin
DGDA But to live poor I could not endure
DGAD As other of my station
DGDA To America I sailed away
BmGA And left this Irish nation
*chorus* DGD Ry tan tin-a-na, tan tin-a-na
DGDA Ry tan tin-a-noora nandy
DGD Ry tan tin-a-na, tan tin-a-na
DGAD Ry tan tin-a-noora nandy
*all other verses same*
The night before I went away I spent it with my darling From 3 oclock in the afternoon Till the break of day next morning But when that we were going to part we lay in each others arms You maybe sure very sure It wounded both our charms
*chorus*
The very first night I slept on board I dreamt about my Nancy I dreamt I held her in my arms And she pleased well my fancy But when I woke out of my dream I found my bed was eimpty You maybe sure, very sure That I lay discontented
*chorus*
Wehn we arrived on the other side We were both stout and healthy We dropped our anchor in the bay Going down to Philadelphia But to live poor I could not endure As others of my station To American I sailed away And left this Irish nation
