     D                  G                  D
Last night as I slept I dreamed I met with Behan
                               G                  A
I shook him by the hand and we passed the time of day
     D                              G              D
When questioned on his views on the crux of life's philosophies
   D                 G         A               D
He had but these few clear and simple words to say

I am going, I am going, Any which way the wind may be blowing
I am going, I am going, Where streams of whiskey are flowing

I have cursed, bled and sworn, Jumped bail and landed up in jail
Life has often tried to stretch me, but the rope always was slack
And now that I've a pile, I'll go down to the Chelsea
I'll walk in on my feet, but I'll leave there on my back

Chorus 2

Inst	|D     |D     |D     |G    A|D     |D     |D     |G    D||

Oh the words that he spoke, seemed the wisest of philosophies
There's nothing ever gained by a wet thing called a tear
When the world is too dark and I need the light inside of me
I'll walk into a bar and drink fifteen pints of beer

Chorus 3

Chorus 4

Outro	|D     |D     |D     |G    A|D     |D     |D     |G    D||
