Biografía:
Tras esa imagen de entrañables abuelos barbudos está la formación más legendaria de la música irlandesa. Desde que, inspirados por la novela de Joyce, asumieran su nombre artístico, los Dubliners han dado forma a una carrera basada tanto en sus arcanas tonadas populares de inmigrantes y trabajadores como en esa reputación de crápulas santos bebedores que les acompaña desde que irrumpieron en 1967 con ‘Seven drunken nights’ (Siete noche ebrias), éxito censurado en su país que les proyectó incluso al mundo del rock.

BUILDING UP AND TEARING ENGLAND DOWN
THE DUBLINERS
INTRO:
A
VERSE:
A D E
Oh, I won a hero's name with McAlpine and Costain
A D E A
With Fitz Patrick, Murphy Ash and the Wimpy's gang
A D E
I've been often on the road on me way to draw the dole
A D E A
When there's nothing left to do for Johnny Laing
BREAK:
F#m C#
And I used to think that God made the mixer, pick and hod
F#m C# F#m
So a Paddy might no hell above the ground
VERSE:
LOW E STRING -2---4-
A
I've had ganger's big and tough
D E
Tell me tear that hole out rough
CHORUS:
A D E A
When you're building up and tearing England down
VERSE:
A D E
In a tunnel under ground a young Limerick man was found
A D E A
He was built into the new Victoria line
A D E
When the bonus gang had passed sticking from the concrete cast
A D E A
Was the face of little Charlie Joe Divine
BREAK:
F#m C#
And the ganger man McGurk said big Paddy hates the work
F#m C# F#m
When the gas main blew and he flew off the ground
VERSE:
LOW E STRING -2---4-
A
Oh they swore he'd send down slack
D E
And I'll not be there until I'm back
CHORUS:
A D E A
Keep on building up and tearing England down
VERSE:
A D E
I was on the shuttering dam on the day that Jack McCann
A D E A
Got the better of his stammer in a week
A
He fell from the shuttering dam
D E
And that poor old stuttering man
A D E A
He was never ever more inclined to speak
BREAK:
F#m C#
And I saw old Balls McColl with a big fly over haul
F#m C# F#m
Into a concrete mixer spinning round
VERSE:
LOW E STRING -2---4-
A
Though it wasn't his intent
D E
He got a fine head of cement
CHORUS:
A D E A
When he was building up and tearing England down
VERSE:
A D E
I remember carrier Jack with his hod upon his back
A D E A
How he swore one day he'd set the world on fire
A
Well his face they've never seen
D E
Since his shovel it cut clean
A D E A
To the middle of the big high tension wires
BREAK:
F#m C#
Oh the more like Robin Hood well he wrung trough Cricklewood
F#m C# F#m
Or dance around the pubs in Camdon Town
VERSE:
LOW E STRING -2---4-
A
Oh but let no man proclaim
D E
Sure old Pad' could die in vain
CHORUS:
A D E A
When he's building up and tearing England down
INSTRUMENTAL:
A D A E
A D A E A
F#m D A E A D A E A
F#m D A E A D A E A
F#m D A E A D A E A
VERSE:
A
So come all you navvy's bold
D E
Do not think that English gold
A D E A
Is just waiting to be taken from each sod
A D E
By the likes of you and me will never get an O.B.E
A D E A
Or a knighthood for good service to the hod
BRIDGE:
F#m
It's the concrete master race
C#
That would keep you in your place
F#m C# F#m
And a ganger man to kick you to the ground
VERSE:
LOW E STRING -2---4-
A
If you ever try to take
D E
Part of what the bosses make
CHORUS:
A D E A
When you're building up and tearing England down
