[Intro]
D Bm
D Bm
[Verse 1]
D Bm
What need you being come to sense
D Bm
But fumble in a greasy till
D Bm
And add the halfpence to the pence
D Bm
And prayer to shivering prayer until
[Chorus 1]
G#dim G
You've dried the marrow from the bone
D Bm
For men were born to pray and save, pray and save
G#dim G
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone
D Bm
It's with O'Leary in the grave, in the grave
[Verse 2]
D Bm
Yet they were of a different kind
D Bm
Those names that stilled your childish play
D Bm
They have gone about the world like wind
D Bm
But little time had they to pray
[Chorus 2]
G#dim G
For whom the hangman's rope was spun
D Bm
And what, God help us, could they save, could they save?
G#dim G
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone
D Bm
It's with O'Leary in the grave, in the grave
[Verse 3]
D Bm
Was it for this the wild geese spread?
D Bm
The grey wing upon every tide
D Bm
For this that all that blood was shed
D Bm
For this Fitzgerald died
[Chorus 3]
G#dim G
And Robert Emmet and Wolfe Tone
D Bm
All that delirium of the brave of the brave
G#dim G
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone
D Bm
It's with O'Leary in the grave, in the grave
[Verse 4]
D Bm
Yet could we turn the years again
D Bm
And we call those exiles as they were
D Bm
In all their loneliness and pain
D Bm
You'd cry: "Some woman's yellow hair..."
[Chorus 4]
G#dim G
"Has maddened every mother's son"
D Bm
They weighed so lightly what they gave, what they gave
G#dim G
But let them be, they're dead and gone
D Bm
They're with O'Leary in the grave, in the grave
G#dim G
But let them be, they're dead and gone
D Bm
They're with O'Leary in the grave, in the grave
G#dim G
Romantic Ireland's dead and gone
D Bm
It's with O'Leary in the grave, in the grave
D Bm
In the grave, in the grave
D Bm
In the grave, in the grave
D Bm
In the grave, in the grave
