Twas a morning in July, [F] I was walking through [C] Tipperary,
When I heard the battle [A] cry from [D] the mountain [G] overhead.
When [C] I looked up in the sky, [F] saw an Irish [C] soldier laddie,
He [G] looked at me right fearlessly [C] and said,
Will you [G] stand in the man [C] like a true Irish man,
And go to fight [Am] the forces [G] of the crown?
Will [C] you march with O'Neill [F] to an Irish [D] battlefield,
[G] For tonight we're going to pre-old Waxford [C]
town?
Says I, me soldier boy, will [F] you take me to [C] your captain?
It would be [Am] my pride and joy [A] for to serve with [G] you today.
My [C] own brother fell at Cork, [F] and my son at [C] Deniscarthie,
[G] And to the noble captain [C] I did say,
I will [G]
stand in the man [C] like a true Irish man,
And go to [Am] fight the forces [G] of the crown.
I [C] will march with O'Neill [F] to an Irish [D] battlefield,

As we march back home again, [F] in the shadow of [C] the evening,
With our banners flying [A] low to the [Bb] memory of [G] our dead.
We [C] returned unto our homes, but [F] without our [C] soldier laddie,
