[F#m] [D] [F#m] [Bm]
[G] [D]
Sad are the homes [Bm] round Gerion, [F#m] [G] Since they [D] lost their joyful pride,
And the Banshee cry [G] rings [D] every vale Along [G] the Shannon side.
[A] [F#m]
That city of [D] the ancient walls, [G] The [D] broken treaty stone,
[G] [A] Undying [D] fame surrounds your name, [Bm]
[G] John South [D] on Gerion.
Was on an early [B] New Year's Eve, [F#m] As [G] shades of [D] night came down,
[G] [D] And tears [G] uprose above [A] their town.
There [D] were men from Dublin, [G] [D]
[G] Hannah [A] and Tyrell,
[D] Their leader [F#m] was a limerick man, [G] John South on [D] Gerion.
And the people [C#m] along [Bm] the street, [G] Up to the [D] barricade,
They scorned the danger [G] they [D] might face, Their faith [G] at [A] Lin's fall.
They [D] were fighting for [G] all dire [D]
land, To [G] claim their [A] very own.
And [D] the foremost of the [G#] gallant band, [G] Was South on [D] Gerion.
But the sergeant spied [F#m] their [Bm] daring plan, [G] Spied them, [D] the Dawg.
Their stem guns [G] and their [D] rifles pealed, A [G] hail of death [F#m] did [A] call.
[D] And when that [G] awful night [D] was past, [G] Dementedly as cold [A] as snow,
[D] There was one from near, the [Bm] father, [G] And one from [D] Gerion.
No body will hear the speaker cry, [G] On Murray's [D] Shannon tide.
For he fell beneath [G] that [D] northern sky, A pallor [G] by [A] his side.
[D] They have gone to join [G] that [D] gallant band, Of [G] Lockheed, Dears [A] and Doe,
[D] And battered for, for [Bm]
[G] South on [D] Gerion.
[F#m] [D]
