Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[A]Oh,[G] fa[D]re [A]thee well to Ireland,
My [G]home, [A]dear native land.
It breaks my heart to see friends part,
For it's then that teardrops fall.
[G]I'm on [A]my way to America,
will I ever see home once [G]more?
[A]For now I leave my own true love
on Paddy's [D]green sham[A]rock shore
Our ship she lies at anchor,
she's standing [D]by the [A]quay
May fortune bright shine [D]down [A]each night
As we sail over the [G]sea
Many [D]ships have [A]been lost,
many lives it cost
On the journey that lies [D]be [G]fore
With a [A]tear in my eye I'm bidding goodbye

[Interlude 1]
To Paddy's green shamrock shore
[A]

[Verse 2]
So [A]fare thee well, my own true love,
I think of thee night and day,
And a place in my mind you surely will find,
Although I'm far, far [G]away.
Though [A]I'll be alone, far away from home,
I'll think of the good times once [G]more,
[A]Until the day I can make my way back
to Cagney's green shamrock shore.
And now the ship is on the way,
may heaven [D]protect us [A]all
With the winds and the sail,
we surely can't fail
on this voyage [G]to Baltimore
But my [A]parents and friends
did wave to the end,
till I could see them no [G]more
I [A]then took a chance
with one last glance
at Paddy Green's charm rock shore.
You
