Dubliners – Fields Of Athenry chords
Chords:
D D7 G D ABy a lonely prison wall I heard a young girl calling,D G A A7Michael, they have taken you away.D G D AFor you stole Trevelyan's corn, so the young might see the morn,Em A DNow a prison ship lies waiting in the bay.G D BmLow lie the fields of Athenry,D Bm A A7Where once we watched small free birds fly.D G D AOur love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing,Em A DIt's so lonely around the fields of Athenry.D D7 G D ABy a lonely prison wall I heard a young man calling,D G A A7Mary, nothing matters when you're free,D G D A Against the famine and the Crown I rebelled, they ran me down,Em A DPlease say that you will watch and wait for me.D7 G D A By a lonely harbour wall she watched the last star falling,D G A A7As the prison ship sailed out against the sky.D G D ASure she'll live and hope and pray for her love in Botany Bay,Em A DIt's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.
