The pale moon was [A] rising above the green mountain,
[E] The sun was declining
[Db] beneath [B] the blue sea.
[E] When I strayed with my [Em] love to [E] the pure crystal fountain
That stands [A] in the [Gbm] beautiful [E] vale of the clear.
[A]
She [Gbm] was lovely [A] and fair [D] as the rose of [Db] the summer,
Yet [Gbm] was not her beauty alone [Db] that won [Gbm] me
[E] over.
[A]
No, it was the truth [D] in her eyes ever [A]
dawning
[E] That made me [A] love [Gbm] Mary, the [Bm] rose of [A]
Tralee.
[E]
[A] [E]
[A] The cool shades of [Em] evening, [D] their mantle [Gbm] were spreading,
[A] And [E] Mary, a-smiling, [Db] sat listening to [A] me.
[E]
The moon through [A]
the [Em] valley, her [D] pale rays were [E] shedding
When I won the [Gbm]
heart [E] of the rose of [A] Tralee.
She [Gbm] was lovely [A] and fair [D] as the rose of [Db] the summer,
Yet [Gbm] was not her beauty alone [Db] that won [Gbm] me [E]
over.
[A]
No, it was the truth in [D] her eyes [A] ever dawning
[E] That made me love [Gbm] Mary, [Gb]
the [D] rose [E] of [A]
Tralee.
[E]
[A] [E]
[F]
On [Bb] the far fields of India, [Eb]
mid-war's [Bb] bloody thunder,
[G] Her voice [Gm] was a solace and [C] comfort to me.
[F] But [Bb] the cold hand [D] of death has [Cm] now torn us [Bb]
asunder.
[Eb] I'm [F] lonely
[Bb] tonight [F] for my rose [Bb] of Tralee.
She [Gm] was lovely [Gb]
[Bb] and [C] fair as the [Bbm]
rose of [D] the summer,
[Gm] Yet was [G] not her [Gm]
beauty [Cm] [Gm] alone [D]
that [Gm] won me
[F] over.
[Bb] No, it was the [D] truth [Eb] in her eyes [Bb] ever dawning
[F] That made me [Bb] love [Gm] Mary, [F] the rose of [Bb] Tralee.
She [Gm] was lovely [D]
and [Bb] fair [E] [Eb] as the rose [D] of the summer,
[Gm] Yet was [G] not her [Gm]
beauty [Cm] [Gm] alone that won me [F]
over.
[Bb] No, it was [D] the truth [Eb] in her eyes [Bb] ever dawning
That [F]
made me love [Gm]
[C] Mary, [F] the rose of Tralee.
