            "Seven Drunken Nights" - as played by The Dubliners


[Verse 1]

   A 
As I went home on Monday night, as drunk as drunk could be
  D
I saw a horse outside the door where my old horse should be
        A                                           D
Well, I called me wife and I said to her, “Will you kindly tell to me
    A                                       D                   A
Who owns that horse outside the door, where my old horse should be?”


[Chorus 1]

            A
“Ah, you’re drunk, you’re drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see
                             E              A
That’s a lovely sow, that me mother sent to me!“

Well, it’s many a day I travelled, a hundred miles and more
                             E           A
But a saddle on a sow sure I never saw before.“


[Verse 2]

       A
And as I went home on Tuesday night, as drunk as drunk could be,
  D
I saw a coat behind the door, where my old coat should be.
        A                                           D
Well, I called me wife and I said to her, “Will you kindly tell to me
     A                                     D                  A
Who, owns that coat behind the door, where my old coat should be?"


[Chorus 2]

            A
“Ah, you’re drunk, you’re drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see
                                 E              A
That’s a woollen blanket that me mother sent to me."

"Well, it’s many a day I've travelled a hundred miles and more,
                                E           A
But buttons in a blanket sure I never saw before."


[Verse 3]

       A
And as I went home on Wednesday night, as drunk as drunk could be,
  D
I saw a pipe upon the chair, where my old pipe should be.
        A                                           D
Well, I called me wife and I said to her, "Will you kindly tell to me,
    A                                   D                  A
Who owns that pipe upon the chair where my old pipe should be?"


[Chorus 3]

            A
“Ah, you’re drunk, you’re drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see
                                    E              A
That’s a lovely tin whistle that me mother sent to me."

"Well, it's many a day I travelled a hundred miles and more,
                                     E           A
But, tobacco in a tin whistle sure I never saw before."


[Verse 4]

       A
And as I went home on Thursday night, as drunk as drunk could be,
  D
I saw two boots beneath the bed, where my old boots should be.
        A                                           D
Well, I called me wife and I said to her, "Will you kindly tell to me,
    A                                     D                   A
Who owns them boots beneath the bed where my old boots should be?"


[Chorus 4]

            A
“Ah, you’re drunk, you’re drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see
                                    E              A
They’re two lovely geranium pots my mother sent to me."

"Well, it's many a day I travelled a hundred miles and more,
                                  E           A
But laces in geranium pots sure I never saw before."


[Verse 5]

       A
And as I went home on Friday night, as drunk as drunk could be,
  D
I saw a head upon the bed, where my old head should be.
        A                                           D
Well, I called me wife and I said to her, "Will you kindly tell to me,  
    A                                 D                  A
Who owns that head upon the bed where my old head should be?"


[Chorus 5]

            A
“Ah, you’re drunk, you’re drunk, you silly old fool, still you cannot see
                          E              A
That’s a baby boy that me mother sent to me."

"Well, it's many a day I travelled a hundred miles and more,
                                           E           A
But a baby boy with his whiskers on sure I never saw before.
