[Eb]By a lonely prison wall
[Ab]I heard a young girl [Eb]call--[Bb]ing
[Eb]Micheal they have [Ab]taken you [Bb]away
For you [Eb]stole Trevelyn's [Ab]corn
So the [Eb]young might see the [Bb]morn
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the [Eb]bay.
[CHORUS]
[Eb]Low
[Ab]Lie
[Eb]The Fields
[Cm]Of Athenry
[Eb]Where once we watched the small free birds [Bb]fly
Our [Eb]love was on the [Ab]wing
We had [Eb]dreams and songs to [Bb]sing
Its so lonely round the fields of [Eb]athenry.
[VERSE 2]
By a lonely prison wall
I heard a young man calling
Nothing matters Mary when you're free
Against the Famine and the Crown
I rebelled they cut me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity.
[CHORUS]
[VERSE 3]
By a lonely harbour wall
She watched the last star falling
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
Sure she'll wait and hope and pray
For her love at Botany bay
It's so lonely round the fields of athenry.
[CHORUS]
So there it is. You can tune your guitar to half-step for easier playing or whatever, im
getting any more technical. Sainte!
