[ Предположительная тональность: C ] ***Medley - Traditionally Arr. by The Pogues from the album "If I Should Fall From Grace With God" Medley (The Recruiting Sargeant / Rocky Road to Dublin / Galway Races) - Pogues **Note: The chords in brackets fit but aren't played on the Pogues recording. [The Recruiting Sargeant] - by Chris Em Em G D As I was walking down the road, a-feeling fine and larkey, oh Em (G) (D) Em A recruiting sargeant came up to me, says he, "You'd look fine in khaki, oh Em G D For the King, he is in need of men, come read this proclamation, oh Em (G) (D) Em A life in Flanders for you then would be a fine vacation, oh." "That may be so," says I to him, "But tell me sargeant, deary-o If I had a pack stuck up on me back would I be fine and cheery-oh? For they'd have you train and drill until they'd have you one of the Frenchies, oh It may be warm in Flanders but it's drafty in the trenches, oh." The sargeant smiled and winked his eye, his smile was most provoking, oh He twiddled and twirled his wee moustache, says he, "I know you're only joking, oh. The sandbags are so warm and high, the wind you won't feel blowing, oh." I winked at a cailin passing by, says I, "What if it's snowing, oh?" Come rain or hail or wind or snow, I'm not going out to Flanders, oh There's fighting in Dublin to be done, let your sargeants and you commanders go. Let English men fight English wars, it's nearly time they started, oh I saluted the sargeant a very good night. There and then we parted, oh.
