Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]The[G] pa[C]le[G][Am][G]
moon was rising
[C]above the green moun[G]tain.
[D]The sun was declining
[G]beneath [A]the blue sea.
[D]When I strayed wit[G]h my love
to the [C]pure crystal foun[G]tain
That [D]stands in the beau
[G]tiful [C]vale [G]of [C]Tra[G]die
She [Em]was lovely [B]and fai[Em]r
as [C]the rose of the [B]summer,
Yet t 'was [Em]not her b[C]eauty
[Ebdim]alone tha[B]t w[Em]on me.[B]
[Em]O no[D]te was[G] the truth
in [C]her eyes ever [G]dawning
That [D]made me love [G]Mary,
[C]the Rose [B]of [G]Gra[D]vy.[G][D]
[G]The cool shades of evening,
[C]their mantle were spread[G]ing
and [D]Mary, all [G]smiling, was [A]listening to me.
[D]The [G]moon to the valley
[C]her pale rays [G]were shedding
When [D]I won the heart
[G]of the[C] roa[G]d of [C]Tralee[G]
Though [Em]lovely [B]and [Em]fair
as the [C]rose of the [B]summer,
Yet t [Em]'was not her beau
[Ebdim]ty alone [B]tha[Em]t won me.[B][Em]
[D]Oh, no, [G]t 'was the truth in h[C]er eye,
ever [G]darling,
that [D]made me love [G]Mary,
[C]the [G]Rose [D]of Trinity.
[G]Buddy
