[VERSE]
N.C.
As we [G]gather in the chapel here in [C]old Kilmainham [D]gaol
I [C]think about these [G]past few weeks,[D] will they say we've failed?
From our [G]schooldays they have told us we must [C]yearn for liber[D]ty
Yet [C]all I want in [G]this dark place[Em] , is to [D]have you here with [G]me
[CHORUS]
Oh, [D]Grace just hold me in your arms and [C]let this moment [G]linger
They'll [C]take me out at [G/D]dawn and [G/B]I will [D]die
With all my love I place this wedding [C]ring upon your [G]finger
There [C]won't be time to [G]share our lo[Em]ve for [D]we must say good[G]bye [C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [G]
[VERSE]
N.C.
Now I [G]know it's hard for you, my love, to [C]ever under[D]stand
The [C]love I bare for [G]these brave men,[D] the love for my dear land
But when [G]Padraic called me to his side, down [C]in the GP[D]O
I [C]had to leave my [G]own sick bed[Em] , to [D]him I had to [G]go
[CHORUS]
Oh, [D]Grace just hold me in your arms and [C]let this moment [G]linger
They'll [C]take me out at [G/D]dawn and [G/B]I will [D]die
With all my love I place this wedding [C]ring upon your [G]finger
There [C]won't be time to [G]share our lo[Em]ve for [D]we must say good[G]bye [C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [G]
[VERSE]
Now as the dawn is breaking, my [C]heart is breaking [D]too
On [C]this May morn as [G]I walk out,[D] my thoughts will be of you
And I'll [G]write some words upon the wall, so [C]everyone will [D]know
I [C]loved so much that [G]I could se[Em]e, his [D]blood upon the [G]rose
[CHORUS]
Oh, [D]Grace just hold me in your arms and [C]let this moment [G]linger
They'll [C]take me out at [G/D]dawn and [G/B]I will [D]die
