_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ As _ down that _ glen [D] one _ Easter _ _ morn To [C] a _ city [D] _ _ _ fair [E] I rode _ I
_ _ There _ _ _ armoured [Em] _ lines [D] of _ marching _ _ men [C] In _ _ [D] squadrons hashed me [E] _ by
_ _ _ [A] _
[G] No _ _ fife did hum, [Bm] no _ _ [D] bassle drum _ [Em] Did sound its dread _ [C] tattoo _ _ _ _
But [Em] the _ _ angelus [E] bell, [Em] or the _ _ [D] leafy swirl _ [C] Rang out through [D] the _ foggy [E] _ dew _
_ _ _ Rode _ _ proudly _ _ high [D] over _ Dublin _ town They [C] _
flung out [D] the flag [E] of _ _ war
_ _ For it was better [Em] to die meet [D] an _ Irish _ guy [C] Than at Suvla [D] or _ _ _
[E] Sudebar
_ _ _ [Bm] And _
[G] _ _ from the _ plains [D] of _ _ _ _ _ Royalmeath _ [E] _ Strongmen came _ _ [C] hurrying _ through _ _ _
[Em] While _ _ _ [E] Bretonnia's horns with [G] their [D] long-range guns _ [C] Sailed in [D] through the foggy _ [E] _ _ dew _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] Cause Bretonnia _ paid [D] her wild geese go So [C] small _ nations [D]
might _ [Em] be free _ _
But their lonely _ _ graves are [D] by _ _ Suvla's ways Are [C] the fringe [D] of the Black [Em] North _ _ _ Seas
_ [G] Oh _ had they died [D] by _ _ _ _ _ [Em] Persecythe Or by the weak _ _ [C] Karl _ Brewer _
_ Then [Em] their names we'd keep _ [D] where the _ Phoenicians sleep
_ [C] Neath the shroud [D] of the _ foggy [Em] _ dew _ _
But their _ _ bravest _ stand, [D] their _ _ requiem bell [C] Rang _ _ _ [D]
mournfully _ [Em] and _ _ clear
_ For _ those who died [D] at _ _ _ _ Eastertide In [C] the _ _ [D] springtime of _ [Em] the _ year
_ [Bm] The [G] _ _ world did gaze _ [D] with deep [Bm] _
_ amaze [Em] At those fearless _ _ men [C] but _ _ _ few
_ [Em] Who _ fought their fight so [D] that _ _ Breton's light [C] Might shine [D] through the _ [Em] foggy _ _ [A] _ _
_ dew
[G] _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [Em] _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ [E] Back _ through the glen _ [D] I rode _ _ again And [C] my _ heart with [D] grief _ [E] was _ sore
_ _ For I _ parted _ then [G] with _ _
[D] Balian men Whom [C] I _ never [D] shall see [Em] no _ _ more
_ [D] _ [G] Water _ _ went through in [D] my dreams [B] I go [Em] And _ kneeling _ pray [C] for _ _ _ you
_ [Em] For _ shame _ _ reflained all [D] the glorious _ dead When [C] you fell [D] in the _ [Em] foggy dew
