[Verse]
Shadows dance on the mossy stone
Green hills whisper leave it alone
A pint in hand but the tale unfolds
The curse they say is the leprechaun’s gold
[Chorus]
Don’t chase it don’t taste it don’t hold
The end of the rainbow is bitter and cold
Greedy hands they’ll burn they’ll bleed
The gold you crave is the death you feed
[Verse 2]
A laugh in the wind like a knife in the night
The gold shines bright but it bites with spite
Old men in pubs with hollowed eyes
They lost their souls to the golden lies
[Prechorus]
It gleams it gleams but it’s never free
The cost it takes is eternity
[Chorus]
Don’t chase it don’t taste it don’t hold
The end of the rainbow is bitter and cold
Greedy hands they’ll burn they’ll bleed
The gold you crave is the death you feed
[Bridge]
Coins in the dirt a devil’s snare
The leprechaun grins but he’s never fair
You’ll lose your kin your mind your name
And still you’ll crawl back to the game
