By a lonely prison wall [F] I heard a young [C] girl
[G] calling
[C] Michael, they [F] have taken you [G] away
For [C] you stole [F] Trevelyan's corn So [C] the young might see [G] the morn
Now a prison [Dm] ship lies waiting [C] in the bay
[Am] Away [F]
[C] the fields of [Am] Athenry
[C] Where once we watched the small free [G] birds fly
[C] Our llama [F] wing, we [C] had dreams and songs [G] to sing
Now it's lonely round the fields of [C] Athenry
By a lonely prison wall [F] I heard a young [C] man [G]
calling
[C] Nothing [G] [F] matters Mary when [Em] you're free
[G]
[C] Against the famine and [F] the crown [C] I rebelled, they cut [G] me [B] down
[Dm] Now you [D] must raise [G] our child with [C] dignity
Away [F]
[C] the fields of [Am] Athenry
[C] Where once we watched the small free [G] birds fly
[C] Our llama [F] wing, we [C] had dreams and [G] songs to sing
[D] Now it's lonely [G] round the fields of [C] [Dm] Athenry

a lonely harbor wall [F] she watched the last [C] star

As [C] the prison ship [F] sailed out against [G] the [C] [G] sky
[C] For she'll wait and hope [F] and pray [C]
for her love on Botany [G] Bay
[D] It's so [A] lonely [G] round the fields [C] of [D] [C] Athenry
Away [F]
[C] the fields [Am] of Athenry
