It’s time for the Irish Pub Song Of The Day. Today we start of with a request that took on almost biblical proportions. It seems I got more requests for this song, than I’ve had hits on my YouTube channel!  It’s called Whatever You Say, Say Nothing and for those out there that are stuck in the key of G, I took pity on you today!

This is a fun song and it can apply to many, many situation around the world and in many people’s daily lives, if you plant your tongue firmly in your cheek.

Whatever You Say, Say Nothing (PDF)

WHATEVER YOU SAY, SAY NOTHING

[G]Whatever you say, say nothing when you [D7]talk about you know [G]what
For if you know who should hear ya, [A]you know what you’ll [D]get
They’ll [C]take you off to [G]you know where for ya wouldn’t know how [Em]long
So for [G]you know who’s sake don’t let anyone [D7]hear you singing this [G]song

You all know who I’m speakin’ of when I mention you know what
And I feel it’s very dangerous to even mention that
For the other ones are always near, although you may not see
And if anyone asks who told ya that, please don’t mention me (chorus)

You all know who I’m speakin’ of when I mention you know who
For if you know who should hear ya, you know what he’d do
So if you don’t see me again, you’ll know why I’m away
Any if anyone asks you where I’ve gone, here’s what you must say (chorus)

Well that’s enough about so and so, not to mention such and such
Well I’d better end my song, now I’ve already said too much
For the less you say and the less you hear, the less you’ll go astray
And the less you think and the less you do, the more you’ll hear them say.

(chorus) X 2
