Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]The night that I was mar
[F]ried and in [C]my married bed
Up [Am]comes [C]the bold sea cap[F]tain
and [C]stands at [G]my bed [C]head
Saying 'ar[G]ise, arise,
young [F]wedded [C]man [F]and come along
[C]With me[Am]
To [C]the Lowlands of Holland [Am]for to fight
[F]the[C] enemy'

[Verse 2]
[C]Oh, Holland is [G]a l[C]ovely l[F]and
and [C]in it [G]grows fine [Am]grain
It [C]is a place of [F]residence for
[C]soldiers [G]to re[C]main
Where the sugar [G]cane grows [F]plentiful
[C]and the tea[F] grows on[C]
Each tree
[Am]I never [F]had[C] but the one sweet
[Am]heart and she's far [F]away
[C]From me

[Verse 3]
Says the [C]mother [G]to the daughter
[C]'le[F]ave off yo[C]ur sore[G]
[Am]Lament
There's [C]men [G]enough in [C]Gal[F]way to be[C]
your [G]heart's [C]content'
'There's men [G]enough in Gal[F]way,
[C]but[F] alas there's non[C]e for
[Am]Me
Since the [C]high winds and the
stormy seas have [Am]parted my
Love [F]and [C]me'

[Verse 4]
'I'll [C]wear no stays around my waist,
[F]no com[C]bs all in [G]my
[Am]Hair[C]
No handkerchief around my neck[F],
[C]to shade my [G]beauty [C]fair
And neither [G]will I [F]marry[C]
un[F]til the [C]day I [Am]die
Since the [C]high winds and the
stormy seas have [Am]parted my
[F]Love and [C]I'
