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