Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Alone,
all alone by the wave- washed [G]strand
And [A]alone in a crowded [D]hall[G][D]
The hall it is gay and
The waves they are [G]grand
But my [A]heart is not here at [D]all[G][D]
It [A]flies far away by [D]night and by day
To [E]the times and the joys
[A]that [G]are [A]gone
[D]But I never will forget the
Sweet maiden [G]I m[A]et
In the [D]val[G]ley [D]near Slievenamon

[Verse 2]
Oh, it [D]was not the grace of her queenly [G]air
Nor [A]her cheek of [D]the roses' glow
Nor her soft black [A]eyes
[D]nor her flowing [G]hair
Nor [A]was it her lily- [D]white [G]brow[D]
'Twas [A]the soul of truth
and of [D]melting ruth
And [E]the smile like
a summer's [A]dawn[G][A]
[D]That stole my heart away
One soft [G]summer's day
In the [A]valley [D]near[G][D][A][D]
[G]Sli[D]evenamon

[Verse 3]
[D]In the festive hall by
the star watched [G]shore
[A]Oh, ever my restless spirit [D]cries[G][D]
My love, oh my love
Will I ne'er see you [G]more?
And [A]my land, will you never [D]up [G]rise?[D]
By [A]night and by day I [D]ever ever pray
While [E]lonely my life [A]flows [G]on[A]
[D]To see our flag unrolled
And my true love to enfold
[G]In the [A]valley [D]near [G]Sli[D]evenamon
In the [A]valley near Slievenamon

[Outro 1]
[D][G][D]
