Chords for Emmet Cahill "An Irish Lullaby (Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ra)"

_ _ _ Thank you [Gm] so much. _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ _ _ _ Thank you [G] so much. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ If [F] you ever go across the sea [A#] to Ireland,
_ _ _ [C] then [Gm] maybe [Am] at the [Gm] closing [F] of your day,
_ _ [C] _ _ _ you [F] can sit [D#] and watch [Am] the moon [D] _ [Dm] rise over Glada,
_ [G] _ _ _ _
[Gm] and see the sun go down on _ [F] Galway Bay,
_ _ [A#] _
_ _ [C] just [F] to hear again the ripple of [Gm] the trout stream,
_ [C] _ [Gm] the women in the [C] meadows making [F] _ _ hay,
[Gm] _ _ _ _ [F] and to sit [D#]
beside [C] a turnpike [D] _ [Dm] in a cabin,
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _
and to [C] see the barefoot _ gossams [F] as they _ play,
_ [G#] _
_ _ _ [F#] Oh, the breezes blowing o'er the sea from [G#m] Ireland
_ _ _ [F#] are _ [C#] perfumed by the heathers as they blow,
[F#] _
_ _ _ _ and the women [A#] in the [D#] _ uplands [D#m] digging for _ _ [G#] eddies _ _
[G#m] speak a language that the [C#] _
strangers do [B] not [D#m] _ _ know,
[G#m] _ Oh, [F#] the strangers came and tried to teach us [C#] their _ _ ways,
_ _ they scorned us just for [C#] being what we [D#m] _ _ are,
_ [C#] _ [F#] but they may as [E] well [D#] go chasing [D#m] after _ _ _ _ _ [G#m] moonbeams,
_ or light a penny [C#] _
candle [B] from [F#] a star,
_ _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ [G] and if there's going to be a life _ _ hereafter,
_ _ _ and somehow _ I know there's going to _ [Em] be, _ _ _ _
_ [D] I [G] will ask [B] my God to [E] let me make [G] my heaven
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ _ [Am] in that [D] dear land across the Irish _ [Bm] Sea,
_ _ [G] _
_ _ I [Bm] will ask [B] my God [F#] to let me make my [G] _ _ _ _ _ [A] heaven
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D#] _ _ _ [Am] in that dear [G] land _ across [D] _ [B] the _ _ _ Irish _ _ [D#] _
_ Sea.
[C] _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Thank _ [A] _
_ _ [D#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ [A#m] _
_ _ _ [F#] you so much. _
[B] Now here's an Irish song that you have to sing along with.
[G] You'll all know this.
_ [C#] _ _
Over [A#] in Killarney many years ago
_ [C#] me mother sang a song to me in tongues [D#] so sweet [F#] and low,
[G#] _ _
[C#] just a simple little [A#m] ditty in her good old [Fm] Irish way,
_ [F#] and I gave the words to her,
and I'd go [C#] to the world if she could sing that [D#] song to me this [G#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ day.
_ [C#] _ _ Zura _ [F#] _ lura [A#m] lura, _ _
[Fm] _ _ [F#] _ _ Zura _ lura _ _ lai, _ _ _
Zura _ lura _ [A#] lura,
_ _ _ [D#m] _ hush now don't you _ cry,
_ [C#] _ _
_ Zura [F#m] _ lura lura,
[A#m] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
Zura lura [A#] _ _ _ _
lai,
_ [F#] Zura _ [A#] lura _ lura,
_ _ [D#] that's an _ Irish _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ lullaby.
_ [A#m] _ _
Emesh, that was just terrible.
It [D#] needs to be a bit more sing-along.
[G#] We need more singing, [C#] please.
_ _ [D#] _ _
_ _ _ Often dreams I wander _ [F#] to that cot again,
_ I feel her softly hugging me is [D#] when she held [F#] me then,
[G#] _ [C#] and I [F#m] hear her [C#] voice a-humming [A#m] to me as in days of [Fm]
yore,
when [F#] she used to [C#] rock me fast asleep _ _ outside _ [G] the cabin _
_ [D] _ door.
_ [D#] _ _ _
_ _ [D] _ _ [C#] _ _ _
Zura [F#] _ lura [C#] lura,
Sing along.
[F#] _ _ Zura _ lura [A#m] _ _ lai,
_ _ [C#] _ _
[F#] Zura _ [Fm] lura [A#] lura, _
_ _ _ [D#] hush.
_ _ [F#m] _
_ _ [F#] _ _ [G#] _ [D#] That's better.
_ [F#m] Zura _ [B] lura lura,
[C#] _ _ [F#] _ _ _ Zura _ [Gm] lura _ _ _ _ [C#] lai,
_ [F] Zura lura _ lura,
[A#] _ _ [D#] that's an _ [G#] Irish _ _ lullaby.
_ [A] _ [Em] _ _ [D] _
_ [Gm] Zura lura [D] _ lura,
_ _ [G] _ _ Zura _ [G#m] lura _ _ _ lai,
[D] _
[Bm] Zura _ lura [F#m] lura,
[B] _ _
_ [Bm] _ hush.
Now _ [Em] don't you cry,
[A] _ _ [D] _ _ _
[E] Zura lura [D] lura,
_ _ [F#] _
[G] _ _ Zura _ [F] lura _ _ _ _ [D] lai,
_ [G] Zura _ [F#m] lura lura,
_ [B] _ _
_ that's an _ _ [E] _ Irish _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [A#] _
_ _ [D] _ _ lullaby.
[D#] _ _
