[Verse 1]
E
She lived beside the Anner,
A E
At the foot of Slievna-man,
A B C#m
B gentle peasant girl,
A B
With mild eyes like the dawn;
E A E
Her lips were dewy rosebuds;
A B C#m
Her teeth of pearls rare;
A G#m
And a snow-drift 'neath a beechen bough
A B E
Her neck and nut-brown hair
[Verse 2]
E
How pleasant was to meet her
A E
On Sunday when the bell
A B C#m
Was filling with its mellow tone
A B
Lone wood and grassy dell,
E A E
And when at eve young maidens
A B C#m
Strayed the river bank along,
A G#m
The widow's brown-haired daughter,
A B E
Was loveliest of the throng
[Chorus]
B G#m
O brave, brave Irish girls-
A E
We well may call you brave!-
C#m G#m
Sure the least of all your perils
A B
Is the stormy ocean wave,
B G#m
When you leave our quiet valleys,
A E
And cross the Atlantic's foam
C#m G#m
To hoard your hard-won earnings,
C#m B E
For the helpless ones at home.
[Verse 3]
E
"Write word to my own dear mother,
A E
Say we'll meet with God above;
A B C#m
And tell my little brothers,
A B
I send them all my love;
E A E
May the angels ever guide them
A B C#m
Is their dying sister's prayer"-
A G#m
And folded in a letter
A B E
Was a braid of nut-brown hair
[Verse 4]
E
Ah cold and well-nigh callous,
A E
This weary heart has grown,
A B C#m
For thy helpless fate, dear Ireland
A B
And for sorrows of my own
E A E
Yet a tear, my eye will moisten
A B C#m
When by Anner side I stray,
A G#m
For the lily of the mountain foot,
A B E
That withered far away
[Chorus]
B G#m
O brave, brave Irish girls-
A E
We well may call you brave!-
C#m G#m
Sure the least of all your perils
A B
Is the stormy ocean wave,
B G#m
When you leave our quiet valleys,
A E
And cross the Atlantic's foam
C#m G#m
To hoard your hard-won earnings,
C#m B E
For the helpless ones at home.
