[Bbm] O'er the town it climbs [Ab] a mountain and looks [Fm] down to the [Bbm] sea
In waking times or in sleeping tears [Ab] there I'd long [Fm] to be
[Bbm] To view again those kind streets, the [Ab]
place my life [Fm] began
With [Bbm] those eyes of [Fm] Barnesh [Ab] Ryder
Who hunted [Fm] for the [Bbm] rang
With codger's dows [Ab] we roamed about
To hunt [Fm] the gate [Bbm] holy
We searched for birds in every forest [Ab] from Lissar to [Fm] Duny
We [Bbm] jumped for joy beneath the sky, life [Ab] held no print nor [Fm] plan
With [Bbm] those eyes of [Ab] Barnesh Ryder
Who hunted [Fm] for [Bbm] the rang
And when the hills [Ab] were bleeding and the rifles [Fm] were [Bbm]
aflame
To the rebel homes of Kerry the [Ab] Saxon strangers [Fm]
came
But the [Bbm] men who dared the oxes down [Ab] to beat those [Fm] black and tan
Were [Bbm] once spies of Barnesh [Ab]
Ryder
Who hunted [Fm] for [Bbm] the rang
So here's a hail to [Ab] them tonight
Those men who [Fm] laughed [Bbm] with me
From the groves of Karen River to [Ab] the slopes of [Fm] Beannaty
John [Bbm] Dolly and Bassandy, the [Ab]
Sheehan's [Fm] con and dan
Who are [Bbm] once spies of Barnesh [Fm] [Ab] Ryder
Who hunted [Fm] for the [Bbm] rang
But now they toil [Ab] on foreign soil where they have [Fm] gone their [Bbm] way
Deep in the heart of London town are [Ab] overrun [Fm]
broadway
And [Bbm] I am left to sing their deeds and [Ab] praise them while [Fm] I can
Those [Bbm] spies of [Fm] Barnesh [Ab] Ryder
Who hunted [Fm] for [Bbm] the rang
And when the wheel of [Ab] life runs down and peace comes [Fm] over [Bbm] me
Just lay me down in Bassel town [Ab] between those hills and [Fm]
sea
[Bbm] I'll take my rest near those green fields, the [Ab] place my [Fm] life began
With [Bbm] those spies of Barnesh [Ab] Ryder
Who hunted [Fm] for the [Bbm] rang
In waking times or in sleeping tears [Ab] there I'd long [Fm] to be
[Bbm] To view again those kind streets, the [Ab]
