[Db] [Ab]
[Db] [Fm] [Db]
[Bbm] [Eb]
Oh [Abm] the cold winds from [Fm] the mountains [Ab] are calling soft to me
The smell of scented [Db] heather brings [Ab] bitter [Eb] memory
[Bbm] The wild and [Fm] lonely girl up [Ab] in the [Cm] summer [Eb] sky
[Bbm] Flies high o'er Shannon [Db] Golden where my young Willie [Eb] lies
I [Ab] met him in the wintertime when the snow was on the ground
[Eb] The Irish hills [Ab] were peaceful [Db]
[Fm] and [Ab] love was [Eb] all around
[Db] Scarcely [Ab] twenty-one years old, a young man in [Cm] his [Eb] prime
We [Bbm] were married, my darling [Db] Willie, by the eve of [Eb] Christmas time
[Ab] Do you [Fm] remember, darling, [Db] we walked the [Ab] moonlit road
[Eb] I held you in [Ab] my arms, [Db] love, [Ab] I would never [Cm] let you go
[Eb] Our [G] hands, they were [Ab] entwined, my [Db] love, [Ab] all in the pale [Eb] moonlight
[Bbm] By the fields of [Db] Shannon Golden on a [Bbm] lonely [Eb] winter's night
Then
[Ab] came the call [Fm] to Aaron's love [Db] and the hills they [Ab] were aflame
[Eb] Down from the silent [Ab] mountains [Db]
[Ab] the Saxon [Eb] strangers came
I held you in [Ab] my [Db] arms then, [Ab] my young heart wild [Eb] with fear
[Bbm] By the fields of Shannon [Db] Golden in the [Bbm] springtime [G] of the year
[Eb]
You [Ab] fought then, [Fm] darling Willie, [Db] all through the [Ab] summer days
[Cm] I heard [Eb] the rifles [Ab] firing [Db] [Ab] in the mountains [Eb] far away
I held you in [Ab] my arms then, your blood ran free [Eb] and bright
[Bbm] And you died in [Db] Shannon Golden on a [Bbm] lonely summer's night
[Eb] Oh, [Ab] but that was long [Fm] ago, my love, [Db] and your son grows fine [Ab] and tall
[Eb] The hills, they are [Ab] at peace [Db] again, the [Ab] Saxon [Cm] strangers [Eb] gone
We'll place a red [Ab] rose on your grave by the silvery pale [Eb] moonlight
And [Bbm] we'll think of [Db] Shannon Golden on a [Bbm] lonely [Eb] winter's night
