[VERSE 1]
By a l[G]onely prison wall I he[C]ard a young girl ca[G]l-l[D]ing
M[G]ichael they are t[C]aken you aw[D]ay
For you s[G]tole trevelyans c[C]orn so the y[G]oung might see the m[D]orn
Now a [D]prison ship lies waiting in the [G]bay
[CHORUS]
[G]Low [C]lie the f[G]ields of athe[Em]nry where on[G]ce we watched the small free birds fl[D]y
Our l[G]ove was on the w[C]ing we had dr[G]eams and songs to sin[D]g
[D]Its so lonely round the fields of athe[G]nry
[VERSE 2]
By a lo[G]nely prison wall I h[C]eard a young man c[G]al-l[D]ing
N[G]othing matters M[C]ary when you're f[D]ree
Against the f[G]amine and the crown I r[G]ebelled they cut me do[D]wn
Now [D]you must raise a child with dign[G]ity
[CHORUS]
[G]Low [C]lie the [G]fields of [Em]athenry where[G] once we watched the small free birds f[D]ly
[G]Our love was on the [C]wing we had d[G]reams and songs to si[D]ng
[D]Its so lonely round the fields of athe[G]nry
[VERSE 3]
By a l[G]onely harbour wall she w[C]atched the last star fa[G]l-li[D]ng
As the pr[G]ison ship sailed o[C]ut against the [D]sky
Sure she'll w[G]ait and hope and p[C]ray for her [G]love in Botany b[D]ay
It's so l[D]onely round the fields of athen[G]ry
[CHORUS]
[G]Low [C]lie the [G]fields of [Em]athenry where[G] once we watched the small free birds f[D]ly
