The Gem Of The Roe Chords by Cara Dillon

[C#] _ In a land [F#] of volcanoes, [G#] where bleak [C#] mountains _ rise
_ O'er those brown, bridgy tops now, [F#] the dusky [C#] cloud fly
_ _ Deep sunk in a valley, a wildflower [G#] did grow
And _ [C#] her name [F#] was Funwola, [G#] the [A#m] gem [G#] of [C#] the road
_ From the eyes [F#] of a beauty, [C#] _ appeared to our view
A youth clad in titan, [F#] it's strange [G#] but it's [C#] true
With a star on his breast and [F#] unstrung was [G#] his bow
And [C#] he sighed, _ [F#] Funwola, [G#] the gem of [C#] the road
The gem of the road, the gem of [G#] the road _ _ _
[C#] [F#] And [C#] he sighed, [F#] Funwola, [G#] the gem of [C#] the road
To _ the great shores [F#] of Alba, [C#]
his fate he did bear
But short were the fond years, [F#] these lovers [G#] did share
[C#] For thrice on that hence night, [F#] the band she [G#] cried low
T [C] [C#]'was the death [F#] of Funwola, [G#] the gem of [C#] the road
The gem of the road, _ the gem of the [G#] road
_ T [C#]'was the _ [F#] death of Funwola, [G#] the gem of [C#] the road
_ _ _ No more [F#] of this dreamlet, [C#] her maidens will hide
For _ one the pair she can't, [F#] be dim the [G#] blue eye
_ _ [C#] In silent _ affliction, [F#] our sorrows will [G#] _ flow
_ _ [C#] Since gone is [F#] Funwola, _ [G#] [C#] the gem [G#] of the [C#] road _ _ _ _
