_ _ _ _ Mellow the moonlight to shine [F#] is beginning, Close by the window young Eileen [B] is spinning,
_ _ Near [C#] to the [G#m] fire [E] blind grandmother [B] sitting, [F#] Is groaning [B] and moaning [F#] and _ [B] drowsily knitting. _ _ _ _
_ _ Merrily, cheerily, _ [F#] noisily whirring, Spins the wheel, swings the wheel, [B] while the foot's stirring, _ _
Sprightly and lightly [E] and _ [B] merrily ringing, _ [C#] Sounds the [B] sweet voice [F#] of the young maiden [B]
singing.

_ Eileen, I carer, I hear someone [C#] [F#] tapping, Tis the ivy, dear granny, _ against the glass [B] flapping,
But Eileen, I surely [E] hear [G#m] somebody sighing, [F#] Tis the sound, [B] mother dear, of [F#] the autumn [B] winds dying. _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ There's a form at the casement, The form [G#] of her true love, He whispers with face bent, I'm waiting [G#m] for [C#] you, love.
Get up from the stool, [F#] through the ladder, [C#] Step lightly and [G#] we'll romp [C#] in the grove, [G#] While the moon's [C#] shining brightly. _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _
_ Slower and slower, _ _ slower [G#] the wheel spins, _ Lower and lower, _ _ lower [C#] the reel rings,
There the wheel and the reel, [F#] Stop their spinning [C#] and moving, [G#] Through the grove the [C#] young lovers, [G#] By moonlight _ [C#] are roving. _ _
_ _ Merrily, [G#] cheerily, noisily whirring, Spins the wheel, swings the wheel, while the [C#] foot's stirring,
_ Sprightly and lightly and merrily ringing, [G#] Sounds the sweet [C#] voice [G#] of the young [C#] maiden singing. _ _ _ _ _
