Scarlet coat, a big cocked hat, Mrs. McGrath would you like that?"

Mrs. McGrath lived on the shore and after seven years or more

"Were you drunk or were you blind, when you left your two fine legs behind? 
D                                                   Em 
Or was walking upon the sea that tore your two fine legs from thee?"

"Teddy boy," the widow cried, "your two fine legs were your mother's pride. 
D                                                            Em 
Stumps of a tree won't do at all, you should've run from the cannonball." 
Em                                 G                    D 
"All foreign wars," I do proclaim, "live on blood and a mother's pain.
