Connemara Cradle Song Chords & Lyrics - Gordon Bok

[INTRO]
[A]

[VERSE]
The currachs are sailing way out on the [E]blue
Laden with herring of silvery [A]hue
Silver the herring and silver the [E]sea
Soon there'll be silver for my love and [A]me

[CHORUS]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind [E]blow
Lean your head over and hear the wind [A]blow

[VERSE]
On wings of the wind, o'er the deep rolling [E]sea
Angels are coming to watch over [A]thee
Angels are coming to watch over [E]thee
So hark to the winds coming over the [A]sea

[CHORUS]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind [E]blow
Lean your head over and hear the wind [A]blow

[VERSE]
Oh, winds of the night, may your fury be [E]crossed
May no one that's dear to our island be [A]lost
Blow the wind gently, calm be the [E]foam
Shine the light brightly to guide us back [A]home

[CHORUS]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind [E]blow
Lean your head over and hear the wind [A]blow

[CHORUS]
Hear the wind blow, love, hear the wind [E]blow
Lean your head over and hear the wind [A]blow

[OUTRO]
The currachs are sailing out over the [E]sea
Laden with herring for my love and [A]me
