Tir Na Noir is originally a Norwegian song. Though this
English translation is just as beautiful. Enjoy.

| Tir Na Noir |
*------------------------*
C Am Dm F
It's a cold November as the sea crashes in
C Am Dm G
But I still do remember though the memory grows dim
C Em Dm F
To a magical summer with sweet Mary McKear
C G C
long west in Tir n’a Noir
C Am Dm G
Were you there as a dream though it all seems so real
C Am Dm G
With the laughter I hear and the touch I can feel
C Am
Far beyond the horizon
Dm F
Where the fog disappears
C G C
You were mine dear Mary McKear
C Am Dm F
Though my body is broken and my spirit is weak
C Am Dm G
My soul is awoken as I hear someone speak
C Am Dm F
Welcome back my lover now your future lies here
C G C
Welcome back to Tir Na Noir
C Am Dm G
You were good, you were kind you'll have all that you earned
C Am Dm G
For the secrets you kept and the lessons you learned
C Am Dm F
So I'll take you with me as your pain disappears
C G C
I'll be yours, your Mary McKear
C Am Dm F
For all who have lived through a life of regret
C Am Dm G
Who have need to remember but try to forget
C Am Dm F
There's a place in the distance who's future is clear
C G C
In the west, in Tir Na Noir
C Am Dm G
Were you there as a dream though it all seems so real
C Am Dm G
With the laughter I hear and the touch I can feel
C Am Dm F
I can cure all your sorrows And heal all your fears
C G C
I’ll be yours, your Mary McKear
