Chords for 3. The Mountains of Mourne - The Fureys & Davey Arthur - The Collection

[N] [F#m] Oh Mary, this _ _ [G] London's a wonderful _ [Em] sight
For [A] the people here working [G] by day and [D] by night
_ _ _ They don't sulk for ratings [G] nor barley [E] near wheat
[A] For those gangs are them digging _ [G] for gold [D] in the street
_ _ _ _ [A] At least when I asked them [D] that's what I was told
So I just took [G] a hand [E] in this digging for [A] gold _ _
_ _ _ [D] But for all that I found there, [G] I might as [E] well be
Where [A] the mountains of Marne [G] sweep down to the [D] sea _ _ _
_ _ _ _ I believe that when writing [G] I wish you [Em]
expressed
As [A] to how the fine ladies [G] of London [D] would rest _ _
_ _ Though if you _ believe me [G] when asked to a [Em] ball _
[A] Faithy don't wear _ their [G] dresses _ [D] at all _ _ _
[A] Should I have seen them meself and [D] you could not enthrone
_ Tell if they [Bm] were bound for [E] a ball all [A] about
_ Don't _ _ _ [D] be starting them fashions [G] now Mary
_ [E] _ _ [A] We're the mountains of Marne [G] sweep down [D] to the sea

_ You remember _ young Peter [G] or Lachlan of [Em] course
Well [A] he's over here at [G] the head of [D] the four
_ _ _ I met him today I was [G] crossing the [Em] strand
And he [A] stopped the whole street with [G] one wave [D] of his hand
_ _ _ _ And we [A] stood there talking _ [D] of days that were gone
While the whole _ [Bm] population [E] of London sook [A] down _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] But for all his great powers [G] he's wishful [D] like [E]
me
[A] To be back where the dark morts [G] sweep down [D] to the sea _ _
_ Yes for all his great powers _ [G] he's wishful [Em] like me _
_ To be [A] back where the dark morts sweep down to the sea _ _ _ _ _ _ _
