[VERSE]
By a [C]lonely prison wall
I [F]heard a young girl [C]call[G]ing
"[C]Michael, they have [F]taken you a[G]way [G7]
For you [C]stole Trevelyn's [F]corn
So the [C]young might see the [G]morn
As a [Dm7]prison ship lies [G]waiting in the [C]bay"[F] [C] [F]
[CHORUS]
[C]Low [F]lie the [C]fields of Athen[Am]ry
Where [C]once we watched the [F]small free birds [G]fly [G7]
Our [C]love was on the [F]wing
We had [C]dreams and songs to [G]sing
It's so [Dm7]lonely 'round the [G]fields of Athen[C]ry [F] [Am] [C] [F]
[VERSE]
By a [C]lonely prison wall
I [F]heard a young man [C]call[G]ing
"[C]Nothing matters, [F]Mary, when you're [G]free [G7]
Against the [C]famine and the [F]Crown
I re[C]belled, they cut me [G]down
Now [Dm7]you must raise our [G]child with digni[C]ty" [F] [C] [F]

It's so [Dm7]lonely 'round the [G]fields of Athen[C]ry [F]
[VERSE]
By a [C]lonely harbour wall
She [F]watched the last star [C]fall[G]ing
As the [C]prison ship sailed [F]out against the [G]sky [G7]
For she [C]lives to hope and [F]pray
For her [C]love in Botany [G]Bay
It's so [Dm7]lonely 'round the [G]fields of Athen[C]ry [F] [C]
