Kirk [Am] McHale rode your [Dm] place brooding [Am] over the oldest [Dm] faith
[Am] William stormed your [Dm] place and drove you to the fend
Place of [Am] victory we [Dm] sure saw
The firebrand he'd secure until he met
At Glenmallure with Kirk McHale of Bern
[Am] First we swear, lord, we [C] dare
Great will do what great will [Am] dare
Now Fitzwilliam have a [C] care
Fallen [D] is your star, [Am] Lord
Up with Halbert, out with [C] Zod
And we'll go for by the [Am] flood
Kirk McHale has given his [C] word
Follow me [Dm] up to Carlow
[Am] [D] [Dm]
See the [Am] sword of Glenmall
The flashing o'er the English pales
See all the children of the [Dm] gale beneath the Bern's banner
In spur of [Am] a fight to stop
Would you let a Saxon cop crawl out upon an Irish rob
Play up in [Dm] teaching manner
[Am] First we swear, lord, we [C] dare
Great will do what great will [Am] dare
Now Fitzwilliam have a [C] care
Fallen [Dm] is your star, [Am] Lord
Up with Halbert, out with [C] Zod
And we'll go for by the [Am] flood
Kirk McHale has given his [C] word
Follow me up [Dm] to Carlow
[Am] [D] [Dm]
Out from [Am] Sagartooth for [Dm] North
Flows a [Am] stream of Saxon [Dm] gore
And great is [Am] Rory O'Gormour
It's in the [Dm] blues to Hades
White is [Am] six and grey is [Dm] dread
Out for Blackfriarsway of Ted
We'll send a Dover dripping red
To Liza and her lady
[Am] First we swear, lord, we [C] dare
Great will do what great will [Am] dare
Now Fitzwilliam have a [G] care
Fallen [Dm] is your star, [Am] Lord
Up with Halbert, out with [C] Zod
And we'll go for by the [Am] flood
