_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ _
Why did that [E] happen?
I want to hear you sing it. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ [F#] _ [B] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ [B] Long ago, far, far gone,
Now a prison ship lies [F#m] waiting in the [E] _
_ bay. _ _ _ _
Low _ [A] _ lie [E] the fields [C#m] of _ Adenrein,
[E] Where once we watched the small free birds fly.
[B] _ _ _ _ [E] Our love was [A] on the wing,
[E] We had dreams and songs to [B] sing,
But so lonely round the fields of [E] _
_ Adenrein. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ By a lonely prison wall,
_ [A] I heard a young [E] man _ _ calling,
[B] _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] Nothing _ [A] matters, Mary, when you're free.
_ [B] _ _
_ Against [E] the famine _ [A] and the crowd,
_ [E] I rebelled, they cut me [B] down.
Now you must raise our child with [E] dignity.
_ _ Sing it with me, come on.
_ Low _ [A] lie _ [E] the _ fields of [C#m] _
Adenrein,
[E] Where once we watched the small free [B] birds fly. _ _ _ _
_ [E] Our love was on [A] the wing,
_ [E] We had dreams and songs [B] to sing,
But so lonely round the _ fields of [E] _ _ Adenrein. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ By a lonely harbor wall,
She [A] watched the last [E] star _ _ falling,
[B] _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] As the prison ship [A] sailed out against the sky.
_ _ [B] _ _ For [E] she lived in hope [A] and praying
_ [E] For her love in [B] Botany Bay.
So lonely _ round the _ [F#m] fields of [E] _ _
Adenrein.
_ Let's hear you, come on.
Low _ [A] _ lie _ [E] the fields of [C#m] _ Adenrein,
[E] Where once we watched the small [C#] free birds fly.
[F#m] _ _ _ _ [B] _ [E] Our love was on [A] the wing,
_ [E] We had dreams and songs [B] to sing,
But so lonely _ round the _ fields of [A] _
_ Adenrein.
