Slievenamon Chords by Paddy Reilly

_ _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#m] _
_ [E] _ _ _ [A] _ _
[E] _ _ [B] _ _ _ [E] _
Alone, not _ _ _ _ by the _ waved [A] washed strand, [F#] _ _
[B] Alone _ in a _ _ crowded [E] _
[A] hall.
_ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
[E] The hall it is gay, _ and the [Bm] waves they [A] are [F#] grand, But my [B] _ heart is not _ here [E] at _ [F#m] all.
_ [G] _
_ [E] _ It [B] flies _ far [F#m] away, [B] _
[E] by _ night and by day, To [F#] the times _ and the joys _ [B] that are gone.
[A] _
[G#m] And _ _ [B] _
[E] I never will forget, _ the sweet May [D] that I [A] _ [F#] met, In [B] the _ valley near _ _ Slieve [E]
-Namon.
[A] _ _ _ [E] _ _
[B] _ It [E] _ was not the _ grace of her _ _ queenly [A] _
[F#] hair, Nor her [B] _
cheek of the _ _ [E] rose's glow,
_ [A] _ _
[E] _ _ [B] Nor her [E] _
soft black _ _ eyes, or her _ [D] flowing _ [A] _ _ [F#] hair, [B] Nor _ was it her lily _ [E] white brow,
[F#m] _ _ _ [G] _ _ [E]
Was the [B] soul _ [F#m] of truth, [B] _ [E] and a _ [B] melting _ [E] _
roof, And the [F#] smile like a _ _ _ [B] summer's dawn,
[A] _ _ [G#m] _
_ [B] _ That [E] stole my heart away, _ on a soft [D] summer _
[A] _ [F#] day, In [B] the _ valley near _ _ Slieve [E]-Namon.
_ [A] _
_ [E] _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _
In [F] the _ festive _ _ hall, by the star _ [A#]-washed [G] shore, _ _ [C] _ Ever my restless _ _ [F] spirit [A#] cries,
_ _ [F] _
_ [C] _ My [F] _
love, my _ love, shall I ne'er [D#] see [A#] you [G] more, And [C] my land _ will you never _ _ [F] _ uprise.
[Gm] _
_ [G#] _ _ [F] By _
_ [C] night and [Gm] by [C] day, _ [F] I [A#] ever, ever [F] pray, _ [G] While _ only my _ _ life [C] flows _ [A#] on,
_ [Am] _ _
[C] _ [F] To see our flag _ _ unfurls, and my true love [Cm] to [A#] _
_ [G] enfold, In [C] the _ valley near _ _ Slieve [F] _ -Namon.
[A#] _ _
[Am] _ _ _ [Gm] In [C] the valley _ near Slieve _ _ [A#] _ -Namon.
