Verse
E B A C#m
Farewell to the groves of shillelagh and shamrock
E F#m A C#m
Farewell to the wee girls of Ireland all 'round
E B A C#m
May your hearts be as merry as ever I would wish them
E F#m A C#m
When far, far away across the ocean I'm bound
[Verse 2]
A F#m B C#m
Oh, my father is old, and my mother is quite feeble
A F#m B C#m B
To leave their own country, it grieves their heart sore__
A F#m A C#m
Oh, the tears in great drops, down their cheeks they are rolling
A F#m B C#m A B
To think they must die upon some foreign shore
[Verse 3]
E F#m A C#m
But what matters to me where my bones may be buried
E B A C#m
If in peace and contentment I can spend my life
E B A C#m
Oh, the green fields of Canada, they daily are blooming
E F#m A C#m
And it's there I'll put an end to my miseries and strife
[Verse 4]
A F#m B C#m
So pack up your sea-stores and tarry no longer
A F#m B C#m B
Ten dollars a week isn't very bad pay__
A F#m A C#m
With no taxes or tithes to devour up your wages
A F#m B C#m
When you're on the green fields of Canada
[Instrumental]
C#m G#m A B A E C#m
A G#m A B A E C#m
[Verse 5]
E B A C#m
The sheep run unshorn, and the land's gone to rushes
E F#m A C#m
The handyman is gone, and the winders of creels
E B A C#m
Away across the ocean go journeyman tailors
E F#m A C#m
And fiddlers that play out the old mountain reels
[Verse 6]
A F#m B C#m
Farewell to the dances in homes now deserted
A F#m B C#m B
When tips struck the lightening in sparks from the floor
A F#m A C#m
The paving and crigging of hobnails on flagstones
A F#m B C#m A C#m A
The tears of the old folk and shouts of encore
[Verse 7]
E B A C#m
For the landlords and bailiffs in vile combination
E F#m A C#m
Have forced us from hearthstone and homestead away
E B A C#m
May the crowbar brigade all be doomed to damnation
E F#m A C#m
When we're on the green fields of Canada
[Verse 8]
A F#m B C#m
And it's now to conclude and to finish my story
A F#m B C#m B
And if e'er friendless Irishmen chance my way__
A F#m A C#m
With the best in the house, I will treat him and welcome
A F#m B C#m A C#m A
At home in the green fields of Canada
