Intro: [C] , [C/B] , [Am] , [F] , [Am] , [G] , [F]

What [C]makes me [C/B]walk through [Am]Ireland's shr[F]ines
And I[Am]reland's [G]holy shor[C]es
To [C]see a [C/B]country [Am]crucifie[F]d
Your [Am]beauty [G]crowned in t[C]horns
And [C]as I [C/B]watch that [Am]wondrous c[F]ross
That's been [Dm]hewn down and [G/D]severed in [G]two
There's [C]something [Am]here
That d[F]raws me n[Am]ear
To w[F]ear the g[G]reen for [C]you

[C] , [G] , [Am] , [F] , [C] , [G] , [C]

To [C]see you [C/B]there blood [Am]brother Ga[F]el
The f[Am]ace, the t[G]ongue my [C]own
Many [C]places [C/B]in my [Am]own count[F]ry
Could not [Am]make me feel [G]more at [C]home
[C]Laughter and [C/B]music [Am]through the ni[F]ght
Your [Dm]freedom [G/D]in the d[G]ark
Ton[C]ight I [Am]swear I'd [F]gladly w[Am]ear
The g[F]reen next [G]to my h[C]eart

[C]E---i[G]rin[Am]n [F] [C]E----[G]irin[C]n


From the long and rolling Antrim hills
Through the wilds of Donegal
The songs of history are sung
Every stone on every wall
But here in our land how can we stand
And wash our hands of shame
When the sins of generations fall
Across the green like rain

Here one world window opens wide
And demons they show face
Some of your men have taken seeds of truth
And planted fields of hate
This way has never won a war
And I fear that when the harvest comes
You'll see your freedom fall on stoney ground
And the green overgrown

[CHORUS]

Enjoy!
