[Verse 1]
GCDG
Hello, my name is Paddy, I play this here guitar
GCDG
Hello, my name is Paddy, I like whiskey in my jar
CG
I come here to [Insert Bar name] to play my songs for you
GCDG
If you don't like them, you know what you can do
[Chorus]
C
Hey Paddy,
G
Play a song for me
G
I paid $4 cover charge
CDG
It's highway robbery
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
GCDG
Paddy's short for Patrick, who is Ireland's patron saint
GCDG
He drove away the serpents in story that's old and quaint
CG
But Paddy's not concerned with any history to make
GCDG
He doesn't mind if any lassie wants to chase his snake
[Chorus]
C
Hey Paddy,
G
Play a song for me
G
I paid $4 cover charge
CDG
It's highway robbery
[Interlude]
G
[Verse 3]
GCDG
So, Paddy went a strollin' one nice November day
GCDG
He came upon a leprechaun, the little elf did say,
CG
"If you can catch me Paddy, you'll be a rich man when you're old!"
GCDG
Paddy, killed that fucking leprechaun and stole his pot of gold
[Chorus]
C
Hey Paddy,
G
Play a song for me
G
I paid $4 cover charge
CDG
It's highway robbery
[Interlude]
G
[Verse 4]
GCDG
So Paddy went a travelin', he hopped into his car
GCDG
He settled down in Hollywood, way out west out thar
CG
He's had his ups n' downs, and he's made some big mistakes,
GCDG
Especially hanging out with Oj Simpson and Tom Cruise.
[Chorus]
C
Hey Paddy,
G
Play a song for me
G
I paid $4 cover charge
CDG
It's highway robbery
[Interlude]
G
[Verse 5]
GCDG
Paddy took a fever, he nearly lost his head
GCDG
And early the next morning they found Paddy stone cold dead
CG
The doctor said, "good thing he has two sons who will survive him."
GCDG
The other doctor said, "I think I know a song that could revive him."
[Outro]
C
Hey Paddy,
G
Play a song for me
G
I paid $4 cover charge
CDG
It's highway robbery
