[Dm] [Am]
[Dm]
Twas down [C] by the glenside [F] I met an [Dm] old woman
A-plucking [C] young nettles [F] She ne'er saw [Dm] me coming
I listened a while [F] To the song she [Am] was humming
[F] Glory, oh, [D] glory, oh [Dm] To the [C] bold [D] Fenian men
[Am]
[Dm] [D]
It's fifty [C] long years [F] Since I saw the [D] moon beaming
[Dm] On strong [C]
mountainy forms [F] Their eyes with [Dm] hope gleaming
I see them again [F] Through all my [Am] sad dreaming
[F] Glory, oh, [E] glory, oh To the [D] bold [Dm] Fenian men
[Am] [Dm]
[Am] [Dm]
Some died [C] by the hillside [F] Some died [Dm] with a stranger
And wise [C] men have told us [F] Their cause [Dm] was a failure
But they loved them,
[F] [Am] and feared danger [F] Glory, oh, [C] [D] glory, oh
[Dm] To the bold Fenian men
[Am] [Dm]
I passed [C] on my way [F] God be praised [Dm] that I met her
Be life [C] long assured [F] I will never [Dm] forget her
We may have brave men [F] But we'll never [Am] have better
[F] Glory, oh, [Dm] glory, oh To the bold [D] Fenian men
[Am] [Dm]
Twas down [C] by the glenside [F] I met an [Dm] old woman
[D] A-plucking [C] young nettles [F] She ne'er saw me [D] [Dm] coming
I listened a while [F] To the song [Am] she was humming
[Dm] Glory, oh, [F] glory, oh To the [C] bold [Dm] Fenian men
[Am] [Dm] [D] [N]
