All For Me Grog on acoustic guitar

Yes, I'm American, and yes, I'm trying to sound Irish. I tried doing this song with an American accent and it just doesn't work. My apologies to the Irish, but, hey, my ancestors were Irish!

Hey there, this is fantastic! I don't suppose you have a tab for this?

The guitar is an open tuning i assume. what have you tuned it to?

Many thanks, and great performance!

@SirJestalot Matt: the guitar is standard tuning. There are only three chords: G C D. The main chord (the G chord) is played with the bass note alternating from 6th string, 3rd fret ("g" note) to the 5th string, 5th fret ("d" note). --mtreed55

just wondering... did you hear it first from the poxy boggards or from the bootstrappers in disneyland? (i've kinda wondered if there's any connection between the two, actually)

[mtreed55]

The first time I heard this song, it was from a group called Malone and Hutch.

@mtreed55 will you please write a tab, i've tried to play it like this by watching your video but I fail. in 2 months I have the finals of a bandcompetition and i would like to play this song like you do, because normally we play it just GCGD and that is rather boring.
