[Eb] [Cm]
[Bb]
[Eb]
At [Cm]
Boulevard, as [Eb] the [Ab] sun was setting,
[Eb] O'er the bright [Gm] [Cm] May meadows,
[Fm] Off shone [Ab] the [Eb] yearning,
A rebel [Cm]
[Eb] set the [Ab] heather blazing,
[Cm] And brought the neighbors [Bb] from [Eb] far and near.
Then Father [Gm]
Murphy, [Ab] from [Fm] old Kilcarmack,
[Eb] Spurred [Cm] up the rush [Fm] with a wailing [Ab]
cry.
[Bb] [Eb] Arm, arm, [Cm] he cried, for [Eb] I've come [Ab] to lead you,
[Eb] For [Cm] Ireland's freedom [Bb] we'll fight [Eb] and die.
[Cm] [Eb]
[C] [Eb] He [Cm] led us out [Eb] against the [Ab] coming soldiers,
[Eb] The cowardly [Cm] old men [Fm] we fought [Ab] to fight.
[Gm] It [Eb] was at [Cm] the harrow, [Eb] the [Ab] boys of Wexford
[Eb] Showed bookies' [Cm] regiments [Bb] how men could [Eb] fight.
Look out [Gm] for hirelings, [Ab] King George [Fm] of England,
[Cm] Search
[Gm] [Cm] every country [Fm] where breeds [Ab] a slave.
[Bb] [Eb] For [Cm] Father Murphy, from [Eb] the
[Fm] [Ab] county Wexford,
[Eb] Sweeps o [Gm] [Cm]'er the land like [Bb] a [Eb] mighty [C] wave.
[Eb] [C]
[Eb] Our fair [Cm] hill, o'er [Eb] the [Ab] pleasant slain,
[Eb] Our heroes [Cm] failing, [Fm] stood by [Ab] to back.
[Eb] And the [Cm] oars that towed [Eb] took [Ab] Father Murphy,
[Eb] And they burned [Cm] his body [Bb]
upon [Eb] the rack.
God grant [Gm] you glory, [Ab] brave [Fm] Father Murphy,
[Cm]
[Gm] And [Cm] open heaven [Fm] to all.
[Ab] [Gm] For [Eb] the [Cm] cause that called you [Eb] may call [Ab] tomorrow
[Eb] In another [Cm] fight for [Bb] the [Eb] green again.
