Shall my Soul pass Through Old Ireland - Frank McCaffrey Chords

[G] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ [C] _
[D] _ _ _ _ In the _ dreary Brixton prison _ where an Irish [A] rebel lay,
By his side a priest [D] was standing, _ [Am] ere his soul should [D] pass away.
_ And he _ faintly murmured, Father, _ as he clasped him by [A] the hand,
Tell me this [D] before I die, shall [A] my soul [G] pass [Bb] through Ireland?
_ _ Shall _ _ my soul pass [Eb] through [Bb] old Ireland, pass through Cork city [F]
grand?
Shall I see _ that old [Bb] cathedral _ where [F] St.
Patrick took his [Bb]
stand?
Shall I see _ that little chapel _ where I pledged my heart [F] and hand?
_ Father, tell _ me ere I [Bb] die, shall [F] my soul pass through [Bb]
Ireland?
Twas for _ loving dear old Ireland, in this _ prison cell [F] I lie.
Twas for _ loving dear [Bb] old Ireland, in [F] this _ foreign land [Bb] I die.
Will you meet my little daughter?
Will you make her [F]
understand?
But Father, tell me ere I [Bb] die, shall [F] my soul pass through [Bb] Ireland?
_ With _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ his heart pure as the lily, and his body _ _ [Bb] sanctified,
In that dreary British [Eb] prison _ our [Bb] brave Irish rebel [Eb] died.
Prayed the priest that wish be granted, _ as in blessing [Bb] raised his hand,
_ Father, grant this brave [Eb] man's prayer, may [Bb] his soul pass through [Eb] Ireland.
_ [Bb] Oh, may his [Fm] soul pass through [Eb] Ireland.
