[G]
[Bm] [E]
[A] [D] [E] The lights [A] of London are far [D] behind
The tops [B] of homeland are crowding [E] my mind
[A] Familiar places come [D] into view
I [A] see my home [E] now, soon [A] I'll see you
We'll talk to the old folk, Lord they're [D] getting on
And treat [B] them to late night, [E] sing a few songs
We'll [A] talk about the neighbours, and [D] life in the town
There's so [A] much to tell [E] them, the [A] days fly around
This is my homeland, the place [D] I was born in
No matter [A] where I go, it's [E] in my soul
My [A] feet may wander a [D] thousand places
But my [A] heart will lead me [E] back home to my [A] Donegal
And [Bm] [E]
[A] [F]
then [Bb] tomorrow, we'll [Eb] take a walk
Down [C] to St.
Mary's, to a [F] shattered farm
[Cm] We'll [Bb] kneel and pray there, for the [Eb] ones who've gone
And [Bb] hope they're proud [F] of their [Bb] wandering son
This is my homeland, the place [Eb] I was born in
No matter [Bb] where I go, it's [F] in my soul
My [Bb] feet may wander a [Eb] thousand places
But my [Bb] heart will lead me [F] back home to my [Bb] Donegal
Take it away lads

But [Bb]
