Verse
N.C.
Far, far from the isle of the holy and grand
Where wild oxen fatten and brave men are banned
N.C.
All lonely and lone in a far distant land
Do I wander and pine for poor Éireann
[Chorus]
N.C. C D G Am D Em
Lonely and sad I roam, far from my native home
D G A Bm
Where the wild waves surging foam, headlands appearing
Am D Bm A
Clouded in silver spray, flashing through heaven's bright ray
G Em D
For thy glory and pride, lovely Éireann
[Verse 2]
N.C. D Bm G A
Sweet, sweet Inis Cathaigh, the sacred, the blessed
G Em C A
Fit place for a saint or a warrior's rest
D Bm G A
Your sentinel towers left each storm repressed
G Em A D
Your mourning waves wail for my Éireann
[Verse 3]
N.C. D Bm G A
There is nothing now left, holy isle, but thy name
G Em C A
The ruin of thy glory, thy grandeur, thy fame
D Bm G A
For foreign laws see thy sadness and pain
G Em A D
That now cause thy anguish, my Éireann
[Chorus]
C D G Am D Em
Lonely and sad I roam, far from my island home
D G A Bm
Where the wild waves surging foam, headlands appearing
Am D Bm A
Clouded in silver spray, flashing through heaven's bright ray
G Em D
For thy glory and pride, lovely Éireann
[Verse 4]
N.C.D Bm G A
How dearly I longed for to wander once more
G Em C A
To the loved ones I left at my old cabin door
D Bm G A
My blessings I'd given a thousand times o'er
G Em A D
And a prayer and a tear for poor Éireann
[Verse 5]
N.C. D Bm G A
Sad, sad is my fate in this weary exile
G Em C A
Dark, dark is the night cloud o'er lone Shanakyle
D Bm G A
Where the murdered sleep silently pile upon pile
G Em A D
In the coffinless graves of poor Éireann
[Chorus]
C D G Am D Em
Lonely and sad I roam, far from my island home
D G A Bm
Where the wild waves surging foam, headlands appearing
Am D Bm A
Clouded in silver spray, flashing through heaven's bright ray
G Em D
For thy glory and pride, lovely Éireann
