[G] [C] [D]
[G]
The sun is [C] sinking, [G] towards the westward.
The fleet [Em] is leaving [Am] Tangled Shore.
[Bm]
[D] [G] I [Bm] [C] watch the men row [G] in the [C] [G] carvers,
As [C] they mark the [D] fishing round [G] near Skellig Moor.
[C] All through the night they tile [G] until the daybreak,
[Em] While at home their [Bm] wives and children [Am] kneel and pray.
[D]
[G] That [Bm] God [C] may guard them and [G] protect [C] them,
[G]
And [C] lead them [D] safely back to [G] Dingle Bay.
I see [C] the green isle [G] of Valencia.
I [Em] watch the boats plough [F#] the [C] cay,
[Bm]
[D] [G] And see [Bm] ghosts [C]
winging [G] with the falcon,
[Bm] As [C] they watch the silver [D]
shoal that [G] comes their way.
[C] I also see a ship on the [G] horizon,
[C] [G]
[Em] She is sailing to [Bm] a country [E] [Am] far away.
[D]
[G] On board [C] her exiles [G] feeling lonely,
[Bm] [C] As they wave a fond [D]
farewell to [G] Dingle Bay.
[C] [D]
[G]
[A] The years [D] have passed since I came [F#m] homeward,
[A] And time [E] [F#m] has left me [E] old and [D] grey.
[C#m]
[E] [A] I sit [D] and dream about [A] my [D] childhood,
[A]
[D] And the happy hours [E] I spent at [A] Dingle Bay.
[D] In memory too I see the hills [A] of Branton,
And [F#m] the isle of [C#m]
Inishmore seems [Bm] far away.
[E]
[A] I'm [D] always dreaming of [A] my [D] homeland,
[A]
[D] And the happy hours [E] I spent at Dingle [A] [Bm] Bay.
[A]
[D] [A] I'm [D] always dreaming [A] of my homeland,
[C#m] And [D] the happy hours [E] I spent at Dingle [A] [Bm] Bay.
