Oh Danny | boy the | pipes, the pipes are | ca-all | ing, |
C | Am | Dm | |
From glen to | glen and | down the mountain | side. |
G | C | C7 | F | Dm | ||
The summers | gone and | all the flowers are | dy-y | ing, |
C | G | C | |
It's you, it's | you must | go and I must | bide. |
G | C | F | C | ||
But come ye | back when | summer's in the | meadow, |
G | Am | F | C | D | ||
Or when the | valley's | hushed and | bright with | snow. |
G | C7 | F | C | Am | ||
I'll be | there in | sunshine or in | sha-a | dow. |
G | C | F | G | C | ||
Oh Danny | boy, oh Danny | boy I | love you | so. |
And when you come, and all the flowers are dying, |
And I'll be dead, as dead I well may be. |
You'll come and find the place where I am lying, |
and kneel and say an ave there for me. |
And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me, |
And all my Grave will warmer, sweeter be. |
If you will bend, and tell me, that you love me, |
I'll sleep in peace until you come to me, |
