[E] Michael, _ [A] they have taken you [B] _ away
_ _ _ For [E] you stole Trevelyan's [A] corn So [E] the young might see [B] the morn
Now a prison ship lies waiting in [E] the _ _ bay _ _
Low _ _ _ [A] lie _ [E]
the fields of [C#m] Athenry _
[E] Where once we watched [C#m] the small free birds [B] _ _ fly _ _ _

It's so lonely round the fields of [E] _ Athenry

[B] callin' _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] Nothing _ [A] matters, Mary, when you're [B] _ free _ _ _ _
[E] Against the famine _ [A] and the crown I [E] rebelled, they cut [B] me down
Now you must raise our child with _
