_ My dear [A] old home, [G] near the Kerry _ [D]
hills, My thoughts [G] are still [D] with thee. _
_ [G] Although _ I'm in some distant _ land, [D] Across the deep [A] blue sea, _ _
_ [G] I long to stand _ outside your door, [D] And see the sun [A] go _ down,
_ [D] And hear [A] the church bells [G] _ tolling, [D]
O'er my _ [G] native _ _ [D] _ Brassinatown. _
_ By the old [A] little road [G] I long to [D]
stroll, With its hedges [G] _
tall [D] and green. _
_ [G] By _ Hannon's gate I would debate With [D] some lovely fair _ _ [A] Colleen, _
Or [G] _ take a walk to _ _ Guinea's bridge On [D] a Sunday _ _ afternoon,
[A] _ _ _
_ _ [D] Whereat [A] I danced [G] a polka [D]
set To the _ [G] piplar's lively [D] _ tune. _
_ Or carried [A] a _ [G] lynx's winding [D]
bend In fancy _ [G]
to I [D] see, _ _
Where [G] the river Fylde flows fast and free, [D] Round _ Morphy's elder [A] tree. _ _
_ [G] Where many a romance _ was discussed, [D] From dark _ until the [A] _ dawn, _
Where [D] I _ [A] spent many [G] a happy [D]
hour With my darlin' [G] _
Colleen [D] Bond. _ _

_ On Nock [A] at Clarey's [G] _ famed [D] hilltop I hope to [G]
stand [D] once _ more,
To [G] view from Shannon _ _ Airport The [D] town of Sweet _ [A] Rathmore. _ _
Back [G] from the peaks of Cuddy's Reeks To [D] _ Kellarglen-on-the [A]-Lown, _ _
From [D] _ _ _ [A]
Castlemaine to [G] _ Ful-a [D]
-Grain And home by [G] _
_ _ [D] _ Brassinatown. _
_ Now to _ [A]
conclude and [G] say [D] farewell To your mother [G] and Ireland [D] too. _ _
_ [G] I'll ne'er forget when _ both of you [D] Just faded from [A] my view, _ _
But [G] soon I will _ return _ again [D] And good times we'll put _ [A] down _
At [D] Blighty Roll _ [A]
Home, By [G] the old wood [D]
road, Three miles [G] from _ _ _ [D] Brassinatown. _
