DANNY BOY
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Words by Frederic Weatherly
[Notes]
You can play Dm or F instead of Fm. You can also just play G instead of G7.
[Verse 1]
C C7 F
Oh Danny Boy, the pipes the pipes are calling
C Am Dm G G7
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
C C7 F Fm
The summer’s gone and all the leaves are falling
C F G C
‘Tis you ’tis you must go and I must bide
G C F G C Am F
But come you back when summer’s in the meadow
G Am F C Dm G
Or when the valley’s hushed and white with snow
C E Am F C Am F
‘Tis I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadow
C Am Dm G C
Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy I love you so
[Verse 2]
C C7 F
And when you come, and all the leaves are dying
C Am Dm G G7
And I am dead, as dead I well may be
C C7 F Fm
You’ll come and find the place where I am lying
C F G C
And stand and say an Ave there for me
G C F G C Am F
And I will hear, though soft you tread above me
G Am F C Dm G
And in my grave will warmer, safer be
C E Am F C Am F
For you will kneel and tell me that you love me
C Am Dm G C
And I will lie in peace until you come to me
