[Intro]
D A
[Verse]
D
She stood beside my narrow bed
A D
To check my E.K.G.
D
She shook her pretty little head
A
At what’s become of me
D
I thought I glimpsed a path that led
Bm A D
Through rhododendron days
D
And fuchsia nights to the boatshed
A D
In which we two once lay
[Chorus]
Bm
But she gazed only at my chart
G
The valleys and the peaks
G
Brought back the time she broke my heart
A D
In Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
Bm
But she gazed only at my chart
G
The valleys and the peaks
G
Brought back the time she broke my heart
A D
In Macgillyduddy’s Reeks
[Verse]
D
I saw her on Killarney’s shore
A D
One morning in July
D
When I still thought I was a thorn
A
Trying to find a side
D
I met her in the little launch
Bm A D
That runs to Innisfallen
D
Hunched together, haunch to haunch
A D
Trying to keep my balance
[Chorus]
Bm
But she upset my applecart
G
She kissed me on the cheek
G
And I was struck by Cupid’s dart
A D
In Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
Bm
Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
G
Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
G
I was struck by Cupid’s dart
A D
In Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
[Verse]
D
She was a systems analyst
A D
For a dot com company
D
She said, “You think because we’ve kissed
A
I’ll be yours eternally
D
I’ll sign another pre-nup
Bm A D
And we’ll merge our P.L.C.s
D
That’s why most girls go belly-up
A D
In this economy
[Chorus]
Bm
But when it comes to a jump start
G
Your forecast’s pretty bleak
G
The NASDAQ goes by dips and starts
A D
Like Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
Bm
Macgillucuddy’s Reeks
G
Macgillucuddy’s Reeks
G
The NASDAQ goes by dips and starts
A D
Like Macgillycuddy’s Reeks”
