*****DO NOT ADD STRUMMING PATTERNS TO MY TABS*****
Clannad - The Green Fields of Gaothdobhair
[Intro]
Am G/A Am G/A F G Am
[Verse 1]
G/A Am F G Am
Down past Dunlewey's bonny lakes, one morning I did stray
F G Dm7 Em Am Em
Until I reached sweet Clady banks, where the silvery salmon play
F G Dm7 Em Am Em
I strolled around through old Bunbeg and down along the shore
Am F Am F G Am
And gazed with admiration on the green fields of Gaothdobhair
[Verse 2]
G/A Am F G Am
I visit Magherclocher and on Middletown heights I stand
F G Dm7 Em Am Em
Beneath me lies the ocean wide and Machergallon strand
F G Dm7 Em Am Em
Those sandy banks so dear to me, those banks I do adore
Am F Am F G Am
Behind me lies sweet Derrybeg and the green fields of Gaothdobhair
[Instrumental]
Am G/A Am G/A F G Am
[Verse 3]
G/A Am F G Am
The bonny Isle of Gola and Inishmean so near
F G Dm7 Em Am Em
I see the little fishing fleet, as it lies along the pier
F G Dm7 Em Am Em
I wander through the graveyard, where those have gone before
Am F Am F G Am
That once lived happy and content, by the green fields of Gaothdobhair
[Verse 4]
G/A Am F G Am
I see sweet Inish Oirthir and far off Tory__ Isle
F G Dm7 Em Am Em
I view the ocean liners as they steam along in style
F G Dm7 Em Am Em
On board are Irish emigrants, with hearts both sad and sore
Am F Am F G Am
As they gazed on old Tir Chonaill hills and the green fields of Gaothdobhair
[Outro]
