_ Had I the chance to swing [G] a _ scythe again in a [D] field of _ [G] Irish _ _ wheat.
Had I [C] the chance [G] to journey back _ _ [C]
around the [C#] Kings [D] of old.
_ _ _ [G] I'd rather _ see [C] the _ Hawthorn [Am] tree and [D] the old _ _ [G] bog grove.

mother _ [A] _ died [G] last springtime _ _ when _ _ Ireland's [D] peels were green.
_ _ _ The neighbours _ _ said [G] her waking _ was [D] the finest _ _ [A] ever [G] seen.
_ _ _ [D] There were snowdrops and [G] trim roses _ _ piled high beside [D] our bed.
_ _ _ And _ Thern's church [G] was crowded _ _ when [D] the funeral _ mass [G] was said.
_ _ _ But here [C] was I [G] on Broadway _ _ [C] just building _ [A] bricks [D] quite low.
_ _ [G] When they carried out [C] her coffin [Am] _ down [D] the _ [Am] old _ [G] bog _ _ grove. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ [Am] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ [D] Now life's a weary [G]
puzzle, _ _ _ past _ finding out [D] my man.
_ _ _ I'll take the day [G] for what it's worth and [D] I'll do the best I [G]
can.
_ _ _ [Em] [D] Since no one _ [Em] cares [G] a rush for me, what need for me [D] to moan.
_ _ _ I'll go my way, [G] I'll draw my pay, [D] I'll smoke my _ pipe [G]
along.
_ _ _ Each human [C] _ heart [G] must know it's greed, [C] though bitter [A] _ _ be [D] the load.
_ _ So [G]
God be with [C] you _ [Am] Ireland _ [Em] [D] and the _ old _ [G] bog grove.
_ _ So God be with [C] you _ [Am] Ireland _ [Em] and [D] the old _ _ _ [G] bog grove. _ _
