_ _ _ _ _ _ Sharp is the wind, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ cold is the rain, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ harsh is [A] the live [F#m] long day.
_ Up [E] on the wide [D] open plain, _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] by _ [F#] Donnelly's hollow, _ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] under Sodgore's [F#] sun-first, _ _ _ _ _ there [G#] lies the
[A] young _
_ [F#m] Redd Ho.
_ _ _ [E] By the saints she was [D] _ _ _ [G#] _ _
_ [A] _ _ [D] glad _ [A] to _ _ _ smolder, _ _ _ [D] her pretty [A] she seemed. _
_ _ _ _ She [D] clasped with [A] _ _ _ [F#m] ego _ when _ [E] she hid in [D] its _ ways.
_ _ _ _ With sticks and [A] with _ _ stones, _ _ _ [D] up on the [A] small mound, _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] they come from [A] all _ [F#m] _
over.
_ _ Down the ren on [C#m] the wide [D] open _ plain, [A] _ _ _ _ they flock round [F#] the _ [F#m] soldiers, _ _ _ _ in [G#] their jackets [A] so _ red.
_ _ _ _ [C#m] For baric room [A] _ _ [F#m] favour, _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ pennies [D] and _ bread, _ _ _ _ _ [E] this soldier [F#m] is rough. _
_ _ _ _ _ [E] In anger [F#] or fun, _ _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] tiny crows is [A] much blow, [C#] child, _ _ _ [E] with a big musket [D] gun.
_ [G#] _ _
_ [A] _ _ [D] They're birds [A] of the _ air, _ _ _ _ [D] and beasts of [A] the _ _ fear.
_ _ _ _ [D] By spite and [A] by _ [F#m] fury, _ _ _ _ _ [E] our people _ [D] _
revere.
_ _ [A] _ _ _ By fire and _ _ _ _ by _ _ _ _ [D] _ fire, [A]
they come _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ from [A] all _ [F#m]
over.
_ _ _ Down [C#m] the ren on the wide [D] open _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ _ [D] plain, _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ they flock round [E] _ _
the soldiers, _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [F#m] in their jackets so red. _

_ [C#m] _ _ [E] the saints she _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [F#m] was glad to smolder, her pretty she seemed.
[F#] She clasped with ego [A] _ _ _ [F#] _
_ when [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ she [C#m] hid _ [F#m] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] in [F#] its _ _ _
[C#] ways.
[F#] _ _ _ [A#] No blame for [F#] much _ _ woe, _ her _ _ [C#m] form is [A] _ _
[F#m] derided. _ _ _ _ _
[E] Wherever she [D] _ goes, _ _ _ _ _ [E] with cold [F#]
wonton _ whiskey, _ _ _ _ [G#] she soon is [F#] run _ down.
_ _ _ _ _ [C#m] Her body _ [A] _ _ _ [F#] _ paraded, _ _ _ [E] honest of true [D] _ _
[G#] details.
_ _ [A] _ _ _
Her life for _ _ _ herself, _ _ _ [D] the slaughter [A] was her flaw.
_ _ She _ _ [D] chose a cold [A] open _ [F#m] plain, _ or _ _ [A] the dark [D] workout store.
_ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [D] With two broken [A] _ _
wings, _ _ _ _ _ and feathered slow brow, _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] They come [A] from all _ [F#m] over. _ _ _
Down the ren [A] on the wide open [D] plain.
