[B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ Hi-ya, hi-ya, hi-ya! _ _
_ _ _ _ Shut up, you! _ _
My lonely prison wall _
[A] I heard a young [E] girl _ _
_ [B] calling
_ _ _ Michael, _ [E] _ _ they [A] have taken you [B] _ away
For _ _ [E] you stole Trevelyan's [A] car _
So [E] the young might see [B] the mark
Now a prison ship lies waiting _ [E] in the _ bay _ _ _
_ _ Lord, _ [A] I, _
[E] the fear of [C#m] that crime _
[E] Where once we watched the small [B] fevered fly _ _ _ _ _
[E] Our love was on [A] the wing
We [E] had dreams and songs [B] to sing _
It's so lonely _ round the _ fields of _ [E] Athenry
My _ _ _ _ lonely prison wall _
[A] I heard a young [E] man _ _ [B] calling
_ _ _ Nothing _
_ [E] _ _ _ [A] matters, Mary, when [B] you're free _ _ _ _
Against [E] the famine and [A] the crown
I [E] rebelled, they cut [B] me down
Now you must raise our child with [E] dignity
On your own now, give it a lash, here we go
No, no, [A] no, no, no, no, no, no, _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ [B] no
My _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ lonely harbor wall _
[A] She watched the last [E] star _ _ [B] falling
_ _ _ As _ [E] the prison ship [A] set out against [B] the sky
_ _ For [E] she lived in hope [A] and pray _
For [E] her love and bought [B] me back
It's so lonely round the fields of [E] _ Athenry
_ _ Let's hear it now
_ Lord, _ [A] _ I, [E] the fear of that [C#m] crime _
[E] Where once we watched the small _ [B] fevered fly
_ _ _ Our _ [E] _ love was [A] on the wing
We [E] had dreams and [B] songs to sing _
It's so lonely round the _ fields of [E] Athenry
One more last time, let's hear it now _
_ _ _ Lord, [A] _ _
I, [E] the _ fear of that [C#m] crime
Where [E] once we watched the small _ [B] fevered fly _ _ _ _
_ [E] Our love was [A] on the wing
[E] We had dreams and [B] songs to sing
It's so lonely round the _ fields of [E] Athenry
_ [A] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ Well _ done!
_ [N] Thank you! _ _
_ Wonderful! _ _ _ _ _
