By a lonely prison wall [C] I [G] heard a young girl
[D] calling
[G] My [C] eagle they are taking [G] you [D] away For [G] you stole Trevelyan's [C] corn
[G] That the young might see [D] them all [A] Now a prison ship lies [Am] waiting on [G] the bay
Lo, [C] lie
[G] the fields of [Em] Apenry [G] Where we once watched the small free [D] birds fly
Our [G] love was on [C] the wing We [G] had dreams and songs [D] to sing
It's so lonely round the fields of [G] Apenry
[D] calling
[G] My [C] eagle they are taking [G] you [D] away For [G] you stole Trevelyan's [C] corn
[G] That the young might see [D] them all [A] Now a prison ship lies [Am] waiting on [G] the bay
Lo, [C] lie
[G] the fields of [Em] Apenry [G] Where we once watched the small free [D] birds fly
Our [G] love was on [C] the wing We [G] had dreams and songs [D] to sing
It's so lonely round the fields of [G] Apenry
