[D] .
Last night as I lay dreaming of pleasant days gone by.
My mind been bent on rumbling to Ireland I did fly.
I leapt on board a Virgin and I followed it with a will.
Till I gladly came to anchor at the cross of Sponsal Hill.
And when our duty did commence we all knelt down in prayer .
In hopes for to be ready to climb the golden stair.
And when back home returning we danced with the right good will.
Oh to Martin Moylan's music at [C] the cross of [G] Sponsal Hill .

[Dm] Sure e'er sons [Am].
and daughters they [Dm] were [F] all [G] assembled there.
[D] The young and the old, [Am] the stout and the bold [F] they came to sport [G] and kill.
But [D] what a curious [Am] combination [F] at the cross of [G] Sponsal Hill.
So [D] I paid a [Am] flying visit to [F] my first and [G] only love.
[Dm] She's pure as [Am] any lily [F] and as gentle [G] as a dove.
And [D] she threw her [Am] arms around me [F] saying Mike I love [G] you still.
And [D] she's a Mack, the [Am] ranger's daughter and [F] the bride of [G] Sponsal Hill.
