[C] [G] [C] He had some brave young [Em] highwayman, this story we [C] will tell.
His name was Willie Brennan, [F] and in Ireland [C] he did dwell.
He was on the Kilworth mountains, [F] he got [C] his wild career, [F] and many a wealthy [C] nobleman before him [Am] shook with fear.
[C] And it's Brennan on the moor, [Em] Brennan on the moor, [F] bold, brave [C] and out-daughtered, [G] was young Brennan [C] on the moor.
One day upon the [F] highway, as Willie [C] he went down, he met the mayor of Cashel, [F] a mile [C] outside the town.
The mayor, he knew his features, [F] and he said, [C] young man, you see, [F] your name is Willie Brennan, [Am] you must come along with [C] me.
And it's Brennan on the [Em] moor, Brennan on the moor, [F] bold, brave [C] and out-daughtered, was [G] young Brennan [C] on the moor.
Now Brennan's wife had gone to town, [F] the village [C] was gone for by, and when she saw Willie, [F] she commenced [C] to weep and cry.
She said, hand to me that hand, [F] and as soon [C] as Willie spoke, [F] she handed him a [C] blunderbuss from underneath her cloak.
And it's Brennan on the [Em] moor, Brennan on the moor, [F] bold, brave [C] and out [Em]-daughtered, was young Brennan [C] on the moor.
Now with this lorded blunderbuss, [F] the truth [C] I will unfold, he made the mayor to trample, [F] and he longed [C] to walk his goal.
One hundred pounds was offered [F] for his [C] apprehension there, [F] so he with horse and saddle, [C] to the fountains did repair.
It's young Brennan on the [Em] moor, Brennan on the moor, [F] bold, brave [C] and out-daughtered, [G] was young Brennan [C] on the moor.
Now Brennan made an [F] outlaw upon the [C] mountain's high, with cavalry and [F] infantry to take a [C] maiden's try.
He laughed and they [F] soared, until at [C] last was set [F] by a false-hearted [Am] woman, and he was truly betrayed.
[C] It's young Brennan on the [Em] moor, Brennan on the moor, [F] bold, brave [C] and out-daughtered, was [G] young [C] Brennan on the moor.
They took Brennan to the crossroads, [G] and there he hung and died.
[C] But still they say that in the night, there's some who see him lying.
They see him with his blunderbuss, [F] all in the [C] midnight shill, [F] and all along the King's Highway.
[C]
[Am] [C] It's young Brennan on the [Em] moor, Brennan on the [F] moor, bold, brave and [C] out [G]-daughtered, was young Brennan on [C] the moor.
[N]
[E]
Thank you.
And as you may have noticed, that [Eb] song was [Em] Brennan on the moor.
He was an outlaw from County Tipperary.
And here's another outlaw from County Tipperary over here, [A] Liam [N] Clancy.
Nice to be back.
[E]
And his brother Tom,
[N]
[E] and our Emperor of South Nauvoo, Tommy Maker.
[N]
[E]
[Abm] And I'm their father, Paddy [Em] Clancy.
