[Verse 1]

Down past Dunlewey's bonny lakes, one morning I did stray
C# D# A#m7 Cm Fm Cm
Until I reached sweet Clady banks, where the silvery salmon play
C# D# A#m7 Cm Fm Cm
I strolled around through old Bunbeg and down along the shore
Fm C# Fm C# D# Fm
And gazed with admiration on the green fields of Gaothdobhair
[Verse 2]

I visit Magherclocher and on Middletown heights I stand
C# D# A#m7 Cm Fm Cm
Beneath me lies the ocean wide and Machergallon strand
C# D# A#m7 Cm Fm Cm
Those sandy banks so dear to me, those banks I do adore
Fm C# Fm C# D# Fm
Behind me lies sweet Derrybeg and the green fields of Gaothdobhair

The bonny Isle of Gola and Inishmean so near
C# D# A#m7 Cm Fm Cm
I see the little fishing fleet, as it lies along the pier
C# D# A#m7 Cm Fm Cm
I wander through the graveyard, where those have gone before
Fm C# Fm C# D# Fm
That once lived happy and content, by the green fields of Gaothdobhair
[Verse 4]

I see sweet Inish Oirthir and far off Tory__ Isle
C# D# A#m7 Cm Fm Cm
I view the ocean liners as they steam along in style
C# D# A#m7 Cm Fm Cm
On board are Irish emigrants, with hearts both sad and sore
Fm C# Fm C# D# Fm
As they gazed on old Tir Chonaill hills and the green fields of Gaothdobhair
