Chords for Mike Condon Kerry My Homeland song

_ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ [B] _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ If anyone _ asks where [A] this place they [E] call heaven,
[A] Then tell them [E] that Kerry [Gb] is the nearest [B] they'll find.
[E] To travel on down to [A] the lakes of [E] Killarney,
[A] The war will be [E] there and [B] the welcome so [E] kind.
Then tell them to go by [A] the Gap of [E] Dillow,
_ [A] Meet the great [E] Caron to whom [Gb] stand proudly [B] and grand,
And [E] the lovely Ring Road is [A] the home of [E] O'Connor,
[A] The great _ [E] liberator to [B]
call Kerry [E] man.
[A] O Kerry, your beauty [E] I see all around you,
[Dbm] In wonder [E] I gaze at [Gb] your Atlantic [B] shore,
_ [A]
Watched over proudly by [E]
your [Dbm] scenic mountain,
[A] So tall and [E] majestic where [B] the great eagles [E] soar.
[A] Such beauty I see [E] from the mouth of the Shannon,
By [Dbm]
Grand Kerry [E] Head, down [Gb] by sweet Dingle [B] Bay,
_ [A]
Round by the Skellig's [E] of ancient _ [Dbm] devotion,
_ [A]
Kerry my [E] homeland, [B] with you I [E] will stay. _
When I think of the fame [A] of the county [E] of Kerry,
[A] Sure everyone [E]
knows of [Gb] the town near [B] the sea,
Where [E] the Colleens all gather [A] from all the [E] world over,
To [A] be crowned for [E] their beauty, [B] their rose of [E]
Tralee.
Their wonderful people [A] brought fame to [E] our homeland,
[A] For sportsmen [E] and women [Gb] there's none to [B] compare.
_ [E] To name them all here, sure [A] we'd be here [E]
forever,
[A] You'll find them [E] all over, _ [B] bestowed you [E] can bear.

_ _ [C] _ _ [F] Our own native town you'll [Bb] still hear in [F] our county,
[Bb] That Grand Kerry [F] brogue rings [G] so sweet and so [C] clear,
[F] When we sing the old songs and [Bb] they take the [F] floor dancing,
[Bb] Or tell the [F] old stories we [C]
all love [F] to hear. _
Nature _ bestowed on [Bb] her such wondrous [F] beauty,
_ [Bb] _
Dingle, [F] Mount Brandon [G] and her lakes [C] so grand,
[F] It's easy to see why [Bb] they call her [F] the kingdom,
_ [Bb] _
Kerry's [F] the pride [C] of all _ [F] Ireland.
[Bb] Oh Kerry, your beauty [F] I see all around you,
[Dm] In wonder [F] I gaze at [G] your Atlantis [C] shore,
_ [Bb]
Watched over proudly [F] by your [Dm] scenic mountains,
[Bb] So tall and [F] majestic [C] where the great eagle [F] soars.
[Bb] Such beauty I see [F] from the mouth of the Shannon,
By [Dm]
Grand Kerry [F] head, down [G] by sweet Dingle [C] Bay,
_ [Bb]
Round by the skellig [F] of ancient [Dm] devotion,
_ [Bb]
Kerry, [F] my homeland, [C] with you I [F] will stay.
_ [Bb]
