[Verse 1]
G#/A# A#m F# G# A#m
Down past Dunlewey's bonny lakes, one morning I did stray
F# G# D#m7 Fm A#m Fm
Until I reached sweet Clady banks, where the silvery salmon play
F# G# D#m7 Fm A#m Fm
I strolled around through old Bunbeg and down along the shore
A#m F# A#m F# G# A#m
And gazed with admiration on the green fields of Gaothdobhair
[Verse 2]
G#/A# A#m F# G# A#m
I visit Magherclocher and on Middletown heights I stand
F# G# D#m7 Fm A#m Fm
Beneath me lies the ocean wide and Machergallon strand
F# G# D#m7 Fm A#m Fm
Those sandy banks so dear to me, those banks I do adore
A#m F# A#m F# G# A#m
Behind me lies sweet Derrybeg and the green fields of Gaothdobhair

[Verse 3]
G#/A# A#m F# G# A#m
The bonny Isle of Gola and Inishmean so near
F# G# D#m7 Fm A#m Fm
I see the little fishing fleet, as it lies along the pier
F# G# D#m7 Fm A#m Fm
I wander through the graveyard, where those have gone before
A#m F# A#m F# G# A#m
That once lived happy and content, by the green fields of Gaothdobhair
[Verse 4]
G#/A# A#m F# G# A#m
I see sweet Inish Oirthir and far off Tory__ Isle
F# G# D#m7 Fm A#m Fm
I view the ocean liners as they steam along in style
F# G# D#m7 Fm A#m Fm
On board are Irish emigrants, with hearts both sad and sore
A#m F# A#m F# G# A#m
As they gazed on old Tir Chonaill hills and the green fields of Gaothdobhair
