Chords for Mountain Of Mourne with Lyrics - Don McLean

[G] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Oh Mary, this _ [C] London's a [Em] wonderful [Am] sight _ [D] With people here working [G] by day and by night
_ They don't sow potatoes, [C] nor barley, [Am] nor wheat [D] But there's gangs of them digging [Am] [G] for gold [C] in the [G] street _
[D] At least when I asked them, [G] that's what [Ab] I [Em] was told [G] So I just [Em] took a hand at [A] this digging [D] for [Am] gold
[G] But for all that I [Am] found there, I might [G] as well [Am] be _ [D] In the place where the dark morn [G]
sweeps down [C] to [G] the sea _
I _ _ _ _

believe that when [Am] writing [Bm]
[C] a wish you [Am] expressed _ [D] As to how the fine ladies in [G] [C] London were [G] dressed
Well if you'll believe [Am] [Bm] me, [C] when [Em] asked to [Am] a ball _ [D] They don't wear no tops [C] to [G] their dresses at all
[D] Oh I've seen them myself [G] and you could not [Em] in truth [G] Tell that if they [Em] were bound for [A] a ball or [D] a bath
[G] Don't be starting them [Am] fashions [G]
[C] now [Em] Mary [Am] _ MacCree [D] In the place where the dark morn [C] sweeps down [G] to the sea _

There's beautiful [Am] girls [Bm] here, [C] oh never [Am] you mind _
[D] Beautiful _ shapes nature [C] [G] never [C] _ [G] designed _
Lovely _ _ [Am] [G] complexions [C] of roses [Em] [Am] and cream [D] But let me remark with [G] regard [C] to the [G] same _
[D] That if at those roses [G] you venture [Em] to sip _ [G] The colours [Em] might all come [A] away on [D] your lip
[G] So I'll wait for the [Am] wild [G]
[C] rose that's [Em] waiting [Am] for me [D] In the place where the dark [G] morn sweeps [C] down [G] to the sea

You remember [C] young [G] Denny [C] McLaren [Am] of course _
[D] Well he's over here [G] with the rest [C] [G] of the force _
I saw him one [C] day [Em]
[C] as he stood [Em] [Am] on the strand [D] _ Stopped all the traffic [G] with a wave [C] [G] of his hand _
[D] And as we were talking of [G] days that [Em] are gone [G] The whole [Em] town of London [A] stood there to [D] look on
[G] But for all his great powers [C] he's wishful [Am] like me [D] To be back where the dark morn [G] sweeps [C] down [G] to the sea _ _ _ _
