Last night I had [A] a pleasant dream, _ [E]
I woke up [B] _ with a [E] smile. _ _ _
I dreamt that I was [A] back again, [F#] in dear old _ Arrans [F#m] Eye.
_ [B] _ I [E] thought I saw Locke [G#] Allen's [A] vans in the valleys [F#m] _ [B] down below. _ _ _ _
[E] It was my lovely [A] leech from where [E] the Shannon _ [G#m] _ waters [E] flow.
_ _ I stood _ _ enchanted [A] by the scene [E] of grandeur [B] and [E] love. _ _ _ _
I headed off for Carry _ [A] Town [F#] before _ the dark [F#m] of night.
_ [B] _ I [E] _ passed _ Chemoar, that fairy [A] hill where [F#m] flowers _ wildly [B] grow.
_ _ And [E] I saw the grave [A] of Finn _ McCool where [E] the Shannon _ [B] _ _
[E] waters flow. _ _ _
The next I saw [A] was _ Fainetown [E] with her ancient [B] _ axe [E] and bow.
_ _ Where the preaching _ of her holy [A] monks [F#] re _ -echoes through her [F#m] hall.
_ [B] _ _
[E] I stood with _ reverence on [A] the spot, _ [F#m] reluctant _ for her [B] to go. _ _ _
[E] From the town of Saints [A] and St.
Louis Square, [E] the Shannon _ [G#m] _ _
[E] waters flow.
_ [C] _ I [F] have traveled far [A#] through these great lands [F] from the east [C] on to [F] the west.
_ _ But of all the _ islands I [A#] have seen, [G] I love my old [Gm] abode.
_ [C] _ And [F] if ever I _ [A] return _ [A#] again, there's one [Gm] place I [F] will [C] go. _ _
[F] It will be to lovely [A#] leech from where _
[F] the Shannon _ _ [Am] _
[C] _ waters [A#] flow. _
