(intro) [G,C,D] [G,D,G,] [G,C,D] [G,D,G] (same as verses)

G C D

See the moon is once more rising Above our land of black and green

G D G

Hear the rebels voice is calling "I shall not die tho' you bury me"

G C D

Hear the Aunt in bed a dying, "Where is my Johnny"

G D G

Faded pictures in the hallway, which one of these brown ghosts is he?

G

Fare thee well my black haired diamond

C D

Fare thee well my own Aisling

G

Thoughts and dreams of you will haunt me

D G

'Til I come back home again

G,C,D, G,D,G X 1

G C

And the wind it blows to the North and South

G C/E

And it blows to the East and West

G C

And I'll be just like the wind my love

G Em

For I will have no rest

G C D G

'Til I return to thee

G,C,D G,D,G X 2

And the wind it blows...

G,C,D G,D,G X 2

Bless the wind that shakes the barley, curse the spade and curse the plough

Waking in the morning early, I wish to Hell I was with you now

One, two, three telegraph poles, give me a drink of sweet poitin

Madness from the mountains crawling, when I first met you my own Aisling

Fare thee well... X 2

G,C,D G,D,G X 1

Fare thee well... X 2

G,C,D G,D,G X 2
