_ _ _ _ _ _
_ Much have I _ _ traveled, _ _ _ [A#] many sights I [F] have _ _ seen, _ _ _
[A#] Since I left [F] my _ home in _ _ that island [C] of green.
_ [G] _ _ [C] _ _
From London [F] to _ Boston, _ _ _ _
_ [A#] wherever [F] I _ roam, _ _ _
I [A#] long to [F] return _ _ to _ _ [A#] my old [F] Sligo _ _ _ home. _ _
How joyful that good _ _ day _ [A#] that we [F] all spend, _ _ _ _
As [A#] we walk by [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ Glencare, so happy and [C] content.
_ [G] _ _ _ [C] In _ _ _ [F] Hazelwood _ _ _ _ Meadows _ [A#] I oft [F] walked _ _ alone, _ _ _
[A#] Mid scenes of [F] _ _
_ _ contentment _ near [A#] my old [F] Sligo _ _ _ home. _
For the bright lights of _ _ London _ _ _ [A#] are pretty [F] to see,
_ _ _ And [A#] the sidewalks [F] of New _ York _ are so grand [C] to _ [G] me.
_ _ [C] _ _
But I [F] changed it _ all _ _ _ _ [A#] and never _ [F] _
long, _ _ _ _
To [A#] take the [F] road _ _ _ westward _ to [A#] my old Sligo [F] _ _
_ _ home. _ _
[A#] You _ _ [F] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A#] _ _ _ [F] see _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ _ Great [F#] _ _
_ Benvolven _ _ _ [B] and the High _ [F#] _
Knotnery, _ _ _ _
And [B] the sun _ [F#] _ _
reclining _ _ _ o'er Sligo [C#] _ _
Bay.
[G#] _ _ [C#] _ _
From the _ [F#] Garibald _ River _ _ _ _ [B] flows out the [F#] _ _
_ _ _ _ _
pond,
[B] Amidst the [F#] green _ _ _ hillside _ near [B] my old Sligo [F#] _ _
_ _ _ home. _
_ Farewell to that _ old _ home and [B] the kind folks [F#] I _ knew, _ _ _ _
[B] Every song [F#] and _ _ _ story _ with heart's lyre and [C#] _ _
[G#] true.
_ _ [C#] _ _
Someday I will [F#] _ _
_ wander _ _ _ [B] back home cross [F#] the _ _ pole, _ _
To [B] take the [F#] road _ _ westward _ _ to [B] my old Sligo [F#] _ _
_ _ _ home.
For the bright lights of _ _ London _ _ are [B] pretty [F#] to _ see,
_ _ And [B] the sidewalks [F#] of New _ York _ are so grand [C#] to _
_ [G#] me.
_ [C#] _ _
But I [F#] changed it _ _ _ all _ and [B] never [F#] long, _
_ _ _ _ _
To [B] take the [F#] road _ _ _ westward _ to [B] my old Sligo [F#] _ _
_ home. _ _
To [B] take the [F#] road _ _ _ _ westward to [B] my old [F#] Sligo home.
