[D] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] As down the _ [G]
Glenwani _ [G] storm morn to a [Dm]
city _ _ fare old _ I,
_ There are mead lines [C] of marching _ men [D] in _ [E] squadrons past me _ by.
[D] _ No [F] fief did [C] hum nor battle _ [F] drum, its [G] sound its dread [Gm] tattoo, _
_ But [A] the _ Angelus [Dm]
bells [C] or the _ Lithy's swell [Dm] rang out through the foggy dew. _
_ _ Rides proudly _ high over [C] Dublin town, they [G] hung out the flag of _ war.
_ Twas better to [Dm] die neath [C] an Irish sky than [Dm] at _ _ _ _ _ Suvarsudalbar. _
_ And [F] from the [C] plains of royal [F] mead strong [Fm] men [G] came _ [D] hurrying through, _
[Dm] While _ _ Britannia's hounds with their [C] long-range guns [Dm] sailed in through the _ foggy dew. _ _ _
Twas Britannia _ [G] bad [C] or wild, geese [G] go, that [Dm] small nations might be free,
_ But their lonely _ graves are [C] by _ Suvars ways, or the shore of the great North Sea.
_ Oh, [F] had they died [G] by _ [F]
Pyrce's side, or fought with _ _ [Bb] Calbrew,
_ _ _ [Dm] Their names we would keep [C] where the Fenian steed meet the shroud [Dm] of the _ foggy dew.
_ _ But the _ bravest fell and the Requiem bell [D] rang _ [Dm] mournfully and _ clear,
For those who died that Easter tide [Dm] in the _ springing of the year.
_ And [F] the world it gave in deep amaze at those fearless men [Bb] but _ you,
[Dm] Who bore to fight [C] that _ freedom's light, [Dm] light shining through the foggy dew. _ _
