[C#m] One evening [B] of late [F#] as I rambled _ By [G#] the [E] banks [G#m] of [F#] young clear [G#m] pearling streams
_ I [E] sat [F#] down [B] by a bed of _ [F#] _ _ primroses And [C#m] I gently [B] fell [E] into [F#] a dream
_ I [E] dreamed I [G#m] _ beheld a fair damsel _ [E] Her [B] equal [A#m] I have ne [F#]'er [G#m] seen before
_ And [E] she sighed [D#m] upon the [G#m] rungs of her country _ _ [E] As she strayed [C#m] upon Maryland's [F#] green shore
I _
_ [C#m] quickly _ [B] approached this [F#] fair female _ _
[E] Might you well [F#] come tell me your [G#m] _ name _ [A#] For really [B] to me you're a [F#] stranger _ _
Or [G#] I [C#m] should not [E] have asked you [F#] the _ same
She [G#] [E] appeared like [G#m] the goddess of freedom _ _ [E] And _ _ [F#] liberty's emblem [G#m] she _ wore _
[C#m] Decked around [G#m] with [D#m]
[G#m] shamrocks and roses _
[E] Took bloom [B] upon [F#] Maryland's green shore
[C#m] She _ _ _ [B] _ _ [C#] _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _
[C#m] _ answered, [B] kind sir, [F#] I'm a stranger _ _ My [E] mind unto [F#] you I'll [G#m] unfold
_ _ And [F#] I'm here in [B] the midst of all [F#] danger _ And _
[C#m] I don't know [G#m] my friends [F#] from my _ _ foes
[C#m] I'm a daughter [G#m] of Daniel O _ _ 'Connell [E] From England [F#] I have lately [G#m] sailed _ home
_ [C#m]
And I've come [G#m] to [D#m] awaken [G#m]
my brethren _ That [E] slumber on [G#m] _
Maryland's [F#] green shore
_ But [C#m] _ _ _ [B] _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ _
[C#m] I think [B] you're a true [F#] son of Grogna _ _ [E] My mind unto [F#] you I'll [G#m] disclose _ _ _
[E] Go [F#] down to [G#m] the meeting at [F#] Flonmel _ _ And [C#m] truly [B] your enemies _ [F#] expose
For _
[C#m] when you do [G#m] possess _ true wisdom _ [E] No enemy [F#] will come to [G#m] your door _ _ _
[E] And the bright [D#m] star of freedom [G#m] shall _ illumine [E] The poor _ [C#m] upon [F#] Maryland's green shore
In [C#m] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _

_ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
_ _ _ _ _ [C#m] _
_ [B] transports of joy I [F#m] awaken _ _ But [E]
alas it [F#] was only [G#m] a dream
_ And [E] this [G#m] beautiful _ damsel [F#] had _ vanished _ And [E] I long for [G#m] to see [F#] her again
_ _ [C#m] May the powers [B] above [G#m] be her guardian _ _ [E] For I know [B] I [F#] will see her [G#m] no more
_ Till [E] the bright [B] star of [D#m] freedom _ [G#m]
shall _ illumine The [E] poor _ [C#m] [G#m] upon _ [F#] Maryland's green shore
