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

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