[Verse 1]
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
As down the glen one Easter morn to a city fair rode I
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
There armed lines of marching men in squadrons passed me by
D A F#m Bm G
No fife did hum, no battle drum did sound its lonely tattoo
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
But the Angelus bell o'er the Liffey's swell rang out on the Foggy Dew
[Verse 2]
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
Oh it proudly high over Dublin sky they hung out the flag of war
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
It was better to die beneath the Irish sky than at Suvla or Sud El Bar
D A F#m Bm G
And from the plains of Royal Meath strong men came marching through
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
Oh and Brittania's sons, and their long range guns, sailed into the Foggy Dew
[Verse 3]
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
Well, the night it grew black, and the rifle crack made Perfidious Albion reel
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
Through the leaden rain, seven tongues of flame rang out over lines on steel
D A F#m Bm G
And to every blade a prayer it was said that to Ireland I amend it be true
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
And when the morning broke out the war flag shook out it's folds in the Foggy Dew
[Verse 4]
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
Well it was England that bade our Wild Geese go, that small nations might be free
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
But their lonely graves are by Suvla's waves or on the fringes on the Great North Sea
D A F#m Bm G
For had they died by Pearse's side or fought with Cathal Brugha
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
Their names we would keep where the men all sleep, under the shroud of the Foggy Dew
[Verse 5]
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
But the bravest fell, and the requiem bell rang mournfully and clear
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
For those who died that Eastertide in the springtime of the year
D A F#m Bm G
And the world it did gaze in deep amaze at those gallant men but true
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
Who bore the fight that freedom's light might shine through the Foggy Dew
[Verse 6]
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
Well back o'er the glen I rode again, and my heart with grief it was sore
Bm A F#m G F#m Bm
For I parted then with valiant men who I never shall see no more
D A F#m Bm G
And to and fro in my sleep I go, and I'll kneel and I pray for you
Bm A F#m G F#m E5
Oh slavery fled, O gallant dead when you fell on the Foggy Dew
G11 A F#m G F#m Bm
Oh slavery fled, our glorious dead when you died in the Foggy Dew
