[E]
The valleys are high, the flowers are [A]
all [E] down.
The meadow heaps white with the winter snow.
[A] Lord, as I
[E] stand in the place where [A]
[E] Danny's lying,
[A] I say a silent [E] prayer.
Somehow I know
[A] he's me.
[E] There's
[A] so soft I tread [E]
above him,
so [A] now he sleeps in [E] peace.
He's
[A] [E] Danny's voice [B]
no
[E] more.

[E] [A]
[Bm] Oh Danny [E] boy,
[Bm] the [A] pipes, the pipes are calling.
[E] From glen to
[Em] [C#m] and down the [F#m]
mountainside,
[B]
the [Em] [E] summer's gone [Bm] and
[G] all the flowers [A]
are dying.
[F#m]
[A] He's here, [Em] he's here, [F#m] must go [B] and I [E] must bide.
But come ye back [A] when summer's in [E] the meadow,
Oh when [B] [C#m] the
[E] valleys [B] [A]
hushed [E] and white [F#]
snow [B]
teased,
I'd [E] be here [A] in sunshine or [E] in shadow.
[F#] [C#m]
Oh Danny [E]
boy, oh [A] Danny boy, [Em] I love you so.
[E] [C#m]
[E]
[A]
And if you [E] come [D] and all the [A] flowers are dying,
[Em] and I'm as dead, [C#m] as dead I am,
maybe
[F#m] [A] [E] you'll come and see the [D] [E]
[D] place where I [C#m] am
[A] lying.
[F#m] [G#]
[E] And kneel and [B]
[Em] say, [C#] I'm not [A] there [B] [E] for me.
And I [C#m] shall [E] here [A] softly tread [E] above him,
and [B] on [C#m] my [F#] [E] grave,
[A] oh what [E]
sweet to [F#] be.
[B] You'll [E] come and say,
[A] whisper that [E] you love me,
[F#] [C] and I [E] shall sleep in peace until you [A] come to [B]
[F#m] [Bm]
[E] me.
[C#m]
[E]
[A] Here will lies [E] hide and [F#m] the flowers, [Bm]
they're all
[E] dying.
