The Wind That Shakes the Barley Lyrics Chords

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
I sat within a [Am] valley, _ I sat me with my true love,
[Dm] _
My sad heart it was torn between, The old love and the new love,
_ The old for her, the new [F#m] that made me, Think [N] on Ireland _ dearly,
_ While soft the wind blew, _ _ _ _ And it showed the gold, _ _
_ _ _ It was hard for me those words [Am] to frame, To break the ties that bound us,
And harder still to bear the shame, [E] Of foreign chains around us,
_ _ And so I said [N] the mountain blend, I shall seek it morning air,
_ To join the brave [A] united, _ _ [G] Where soft wind shakes the barley,
_ _ I kissed away my true love's tears, My fond arms round her flinging,
_ When a foe man's shot burst on [A] her ear, [N] From out the wild wood,
_ _ The bullet pierced my true love's side, In life's young spring so early,
And there she died upon my grave, _ While soft wind showed,
_ _ _ _ And blood for blood without remorse, I again the door lands hollow,
_ _ And let [Bm] my true love's clay go, _ _ Where I fall soon,
_ _ _ [N] And over her grave I wander dear, No night and morning,
_ _ _ With a breaking heart, When air I, _
_ The wind that shakes _ the barley, _ _ _ _ _ _ _
