[A] Look at that view!
[Dm] Dublin Bay.
[G] That's nice, but [Am] really not my favorite bay, you know.
Oh?
[D] Oh, no, you have to work [Dm] west.
Way [G] west.
If [C] you ever go across the sea to [G] Ireland,
Then maybe at the closing [C] of your day,
You will sit and watch the moon [F] rise over Claddagh,
[Dm]
And see the [G] sun go down on [C] Galway Bay.
Just to hear [Am] again the ripple [B] of the Trout Stream,
[G]
[C] Women [G] in the [C] meadows making hay,
And to sit [Gm] beside [A] a turf fire [D] in the cabin,
[Bm] [G]
And watch the barefoot gossams at [C] their play.
[Fm]
[C]
[G] [C] For the breeze is blowing [Dm] o'er the [G] seas from Ireland,
[Am] Our perfumed by [C] the heather as they blow,
And the women in the upland [F] digging parades,
[Dm]
Speak a language that the [F]
strangers [C] do not know.
[F]
[C] For the strangers came and tried to [G] teach us their ways,
They blamed us just for being [C] what we are,
But they might as [A] well go chasing [D] after moonbeams,
[G] Or light a penny candle from [C] a star,
And if there's gonna be a [D] life hereafter,
[G]
And somehow I feel sure [C] there's gonna be,
I will ask [Gm] my [A] God to let me make [D] my heaven,
[Bm] [D] [G]
In that dear land across the [Em]
[C] Irish [F] Sea.
