[Intro]
| A | A | D | D |
[Verse 1]
D G D A
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling
D G A
Michael, they have taken you away
D G D A
For you stole Trevelyan's corn so the young might see the morn'
A D
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay
[Chorus]
D G D Bm
Low lie the fields of Athenry
D A
where once we watched the small free birds fly
D G
Our love was on the wing
D A
We had dreams and songs to sing
A A7 D
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry
[Verse 2]
D G D A
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling
D G A
Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free
D G D A
Against the famine and the crown, I rebelled, they cut me down
A D
Now you must raise our child with dignity
[Chorus]
D G D Bm
Low lie the fields of Athenry
D A
where once we watched the small free birds fly
D G
Our love was on the wing
D A
We had dreams and songs to sing
A A7 D
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry
[Verse 3]
D G D A
By a lonely harbor wall, she watched the last star falling
D G A
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
D G D A
For she'd live in hope and pray for her love in Botany Bay
A D
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry
[Chorus]
D G D Bm
Low lie the fields of Athenry
D A
where once we watched the small free birds fly
D G
Our love was on the wing
D A
We had dreams and songs to sing
A A7 D
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry
D G D Bm
Low lie the fields of Athenry
D A
where once we watched the small free birds fly
D G
Our love was on the wing
D A
We had dreams and songs to sing
A A7 D G D
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry
