[A]
They were green and they are [D]
beautiful, [E] their hearts are filled [A] with love.
There is pure as any
[D] lily [F#m] and [E] there's gentle [A] as a dove.
They sing and cheer [D] in harmony [A] till [E] their throats are [A] cracked and sore.
But there is no doubt, [D] you'll hear [Bm] them [E] shout when shot and they're [A] all sore.
Sir [D] Alune, [A] Sir Alune, Sir Alune, Sir Alune, and we'll follow Jack's heroes whatever they do.
They come from Dublin [D] and from Tor, [E] from here [C#m] down [A] Donegal,
from London, Boston [D] and [Bm] New York, from [E] any where [A] at all.
From Aramatta [D] to [Bm] Fairmoor, [E] Strabath to
[A] Skiverine.
And we'll just go up [D] when the [Bm] water's up, [E] this rain on [A] Steven's knee.
Sir [D] Alune, [A] Sir Alune, Sir Alune, and we'll follow Jack's [E] heroes whatever they [A] do.

[D] Sir Alune, Sir [A] Alune, Sir Alune, and we'll follow Jack's heroes whatever they do.
[D] Sierra Leone, [A] Sierra Leone,
Barring Baja, Texas, whatever they call
And when we're [D] there, and literally
[E] On Sierra [C#m] Leone's sunny [A] shore
We'll be the boys [D] you'll want [Bm] to see
[E] The boys you'll [A] all adore
We'll play like perfect [D] gentlemen
[E] To win, to [A] lose, to draw
We're waiting to take [D] the [Bm] world
[E] To the Japanese summer [A] of song
[D] Sierra Leone, [A] Sierra Leone,
Barring Baja, Texas, whatever they do
[D] Sierra Leone, [A] Sierra Leone,
Barring Baja, Texas, whatever they do

They

were green and they [D] were beautiful
[E] And our hearts fell [A] in love
