O fare thee well to Ireland, [Bb] My [G] own dear [C] native land.
It breaks my heart [F] to see [C] friends part, [G] For it's then the [Bb] teardrops fall.
_ [C] I'm on my way to _ America, Will I ever see [Bb] home once more?
[C] For now I leave my own true [Bb] love On [G] Paddy's green [C] shamrock shore.
Our ship she lies at anchor, [Bb] She's [G] standing by [C] the quay.
[F] May [C] fortune bright [F] shine down [C] each night [F] As we sail over [Bb] the sea. _
[F] Many ships [C] have been lost, [F] many [C] lives it cost, [G] On the journey that lies [Bb] before. _
[C] With a tear in my eye I'm bidding goodbye [Bb] To Paddy's [F] green [C] shamrock shore. _

So fare thee well, my own true [G] love, I'll think of you night [C] and day.
[F] And a [C] place in my mind you surely will find, Although I'm far, [Bb] far away. _
[F] Though I'll [C] be alone, far away from home, I'll think of the good [Bb] times once more.
_ [C] Until the day I can make my way back [G] To Paddy's green [C] shamrock shore.
_ And now the ship is on the way, [F] May heaven _ [C] protect us all.
[F] With the winds [C] and the sail, we surely can't fail On this voyage to [Bb] Baltimore. _ _
[F] But my [C] parents and friends [F] did wave [C] to the end Till I [F] could see [Bb] them no more.
[C] I then took a chance with one last glance [G] At Paddy's green [C] shamrock shore. _
