[E] [Bm] [C]
[Bm] [Em]
[Bm] [Em] [D] [Em] [Am]
[D] [Em] The small birds [D] were lining the bleak [E] autumn winters
Preparing to fly to a far sunny [Bm] shore
[Em] When the tinkers [Bm] made come at the bend of [Em] the river
Coming back from the horse fair at [B] [E] Balinas
[A] The [E]
[Em] harvest being over, [Bm] the farmer [Em] went walking
All along the [B] river that borders [E] his [F#m] land
[E] And it's there [B] I saw her, [A] twixt by [E] light and water
[B] [A] The [E] tinkerman's daughter, [Bm] the [E] redhead
[D] [C]
[E] [D] [A] [B]
[E] Next morning [D] he woke from a night [E] without slumber
Went straight to the barber and he made his case
At a pub [D] in Listowel they [E] struck out a fight
The tinker, a pony to the dog to the hoe
The trees cast their [B] shadows [D] along the [E] fail
The tinker and [B] farmer [E] and her wild gal
The tinker and [A] pony was [B] surprised they agreed
[A] For the [E] tinkerman's daughter, the redhead had died
The wedding [D] soon over, the [E] tinkers depart
They were eager to travel on south down the road
But the crunch of [A] the iron shaft [E] wheels on the gravel
Had bittered her as the way she was old
He cried hard to [D] please him, she did all his [E] bidding
Slept in his bed and she worked in his land
But the [B] walls of the cabin [A] pressed [C#] tighter and tighter
From [A] the [E] tinkerman's daughter, the redhead had [Bm]
[C] died
[Em] As [D] [A] [B]
[E] white as the hands of a priest or a hangman
The snow spread its blanket, the next winter round
The tinkerman's daughter got out from the bed front
Her back to the land and her face to the town
It says someone saw her [Bm] just the same [E] evening
Making her way down the line to Blueball
And that was the last [A] I'd ever [E] thought of
[B]
The [E] tinkerman's daughter, the [G] redhead had died

[D] [Em] [E] [A] [Em]
[B] [E]
For the northern [A] scary hills caught the veil [E] at his toes
And a farm on his spine, [B] he's a bitter old [E] man
And he swears by the shotgun he keeps at his bedside
He'll shoot any tinkerer that comes along
And yet when he [Em] hears iron shaft wheels crunch on gravel
Or a horse in the shaft of a Freud [E] caravan
His days were tormented, his nights [B] sleep demented
[A] By the [E] tinkerman's daughter, the [Em] redhead [D] [C]
