Night visiting song
By The Dubliners
G C G D G
1 I must away now I can no longer tarry
C G D
this morning's tempest I have to cross
G - G7 C G
I must be guided without a stumble
C-G D G
into the arms I love the most
G C G D G
And when he came to his true love's dwelling
C G D
he knelt down gently upon a stone
G - G7 C G
And through her window he's whispered lowly
C-G D G
is my true love within at home
G C G D G
3 Wake up wake up love it is thine own true lover
C G D
wake up wake up love and let me in
G - G7 C G
For I am tired love and oh so weary
C-G D G
and more than near drenched to the skin
G C G D G
She's raised her u p her down soft pillow
C-G D
she's raised her u p and she's let him in
G - G7 C G
And they were locked in eachother's arms
C G D G
until that long night was past and gone
G C G D G
And when that long night was past and over
C G D
and when the small clouds began to grow
G - G7 C G
he's taken her hand and hey kissed and parted
C G D G
then he saddled and mounted and away did go
