[Verse 1]
F# B
I live on the farm three miles from Kilkelly
F# C#7
Talking to myself living on my own
F# B
I took out a singles ad in the farmers journal
F# C#7 F#
And another one on midwest radio.
[Chorus]
F# B
I'm a mild mannered middle aged mighty man from Mayo
F# C#7
Living a quiet life out in the country
F# B
I'm six foot two never drank a drop of porter
F# C#7 F#
But I'm looking for love some female company.
[Verse 2]
F# B
First to call was Mary from Bohola
F# C#7
Pretty as a picture a lady so refined
F# B
Well I took her for a spin on my Honda 50
F# C#7 F#
And I sure as hell haven't seen her for a while.
[Verse 3]
F# B
Well the next to call was Eileen from Doohoma
F# C#7
Looking like a model very tall and thin
F# B
I asked her would she help me clean the hen house
F# C#7 F#
I never, ever, ever saw her again.
[Chorus]
F# B
I'm a mild mannered middle aged mighty man from Mayo
F# C#7
Living a quiet life out in the country
F# B
I'm six foot three and drink a drop of porter
F# C#7 F#
I'm looking for love some female company.

[Verse 4]
G C
One fine day with Kathy down from Partry
G D
Billy the goat really took a shine
G C
Well he chased her all the way to Knock Airport
G D G
I never really got a chance to say goodbye
[Verse 5]
G C
The last girl I met was Margaret from Moygownagh
G D
And things are going really, really slow
G C
I still have the ad in the Farmers Journal
G D G
And the other with Claffey on Midwest Radio.
[Chorus]
G C
I'm a mild mannered middle aged mighty man from Mayo
G D
Living a quiet life out in the country
G C
I'm six foot four and I drink a lot of porter
G D G
I'm looking for love some female company.
[Chorus]
G C
I'm a mild mannered middle aged mighty man from Mayo
G D
Living a quiet life out in the country
G C
I'm six foot five and I drink a rake of porter
G D G
I'm looking for love some female company.
G D G
I'm looking for love some female company.
