Chords for Dolores Keane - "Craigie Hills" (1982)

[Ab] _ It been in spring [Eb]
[Ab] when the small bars were singing
Down by a shady isle I _ carelessly [Db] did stray _
[Ab] Where the thrushes they were _ warbling
The boy lads were [Fm] charming
[Db] For to [Ab] hear two lovers _ talking
A while I did elope
She said my dear don't leave me
For another [Fm] season
_ [Ab] If fortune does seem _ pleasing
I'll go along
[Db] _ _ _
[Ab] I'll forsake friends and _ _ [Db]
relations
[Ab] I'll quit this Irish [Fm] nation
[Db] And [Eb] to the [Ab] bonnie _ barren [Eb] isles
Forever [Db] I'll [Ab] bid you _
He said my dear don't leave me
For you'll annoy my patience
You know I love you _ _ dearly
The more I'm _ [Db] _ _
[Ab] gone
I am going to a foreign _ nation
To purchase a plantation
[Fm] _
[Db] To [Ab] comfort us _ _ hereafter
All in _ America _ _
Then after a short while _
If fortune does seem [Fm] pleasing
We'll cause [Ab] you for to smile
I told her don't [Db] go away
[Ab] We'll be happy as Queen _ Victoria
All in good wealth [Fm] we'll be
[Db] We'll be [Ab] drinking wine [Fm] and port
[Ab] All in [Db] _ [Ab] America _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _ _
_ [Db] _ [Ab] The _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ landlords and their _ agents
Their books and their [Fm] _
billets
The [Ab] land of our _ forefathers
We were forced to [Db] give [Ab] up
Now we're sailing on [Eb] the [Db] _
ocean
[Ab] For honor and _ commotion
_ [Db] _ [Ab] Comparting [Fm] with our _ sweethearts
[Ab] It's then [Db] we [Ab] do _ above
It'll ruin your bad line
I'm [Db] thinking [Ab] of [Fm] undying
[Ab] On sight of the bonnie _ banks
We saw a row [Db] of rookie boys
[Ab] Or a few _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ unshady _ boulders
[Db] _ [Ab] There's a good soul
One _ who'd think [Db] I'm [Ab] dead _ _
So _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ fare you well sweet prairies
Where oft times I _ [Fm]
rovered
I [Ab] never thought my evil days
I'd part you [Db] and me more _
[Ab] Now we're sailing on [Db] the ocean
[Ab] For honor and _ [Fm]
commotion
While the [Ab] bonnie boats [Fm] are _ [Ab] sailing
Down [Db] by the [Ab] ocean _
_ _ _ _ _ [N] _ _ _
