[Bb]
I [F] was born on [Bbm] a [Eb] hillside [Bb] by [F] yonder [Bb] flowing stream.
It [Eb] is deeply pictured [Bb] in my mind, [C] fond memories, [Bb] [Eb] thoughts and dreams.
It often [Bb] nearly breaks my heart and leaves me a troubled [Eb] mind.
When I [Cm] think [F] of dear [Bb] old Ireland [Eb] and [Bb] the home [F] I left [Bb] behind.
I [Eb] went down to [Bb] the valley [Eb]
to [Bb] bid [Eb] my [Bb] friends adieu.
I [Eb] [Bb] stood upon the far bridge, the mountain's wide [Eb]
view.
I stood [F] upon the [Bb] far bridge where I stood many [Eb] a time.
[Cm] And from there [F] I took [Bb] my last [Eb] fond look [Bb] at the home [F] I [Bb] left behind.
[Cm] [F] [Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
It was [Cm] [F] early [Bb] next [Eb] morning [Bb] with a [Fm] sad and [Bb] broken heart.
I [Eb] stood on the heart [Bb] of my father's floor, saying it's sad we both [Eb] must part.
[F] With [Cm] my mother's [F] arms [Bb] around my neck, the tears her [Eb] eyes did blind.
[Cm] And I tore [F] out from [Bb] her arms [Eb]
in [Bb] the [F] home I [Bb] left behind.
Now [F] since I've landed [Bb] in [Eb] New York, [Bb] strange [F] places I [Bb] have known.
But [Eb] there's none [G] so dear nor [Bb] so near to me as the ones I [Eb] used to know.
[Cm] And when I've lots [Bb] of shining gold and a girl to call [Eb] my bride.
[Cm] I'll roll [F] her in my [Bb] [Eb] atoms in [Bb] the home [Fm] I [Bb] left behind.
