Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Oh, [C]how[G] lo[C]vel[D]y t[G]o b[D]e[G]
on the [C]shores of Loughree
[G]On a beautiful midsum[Em]mer's mor[Am]ning
[D]Looking ove[G]r the lake as
the [C]waters do [G]break
By the [C]hills in the [D]county Roscom[G]mon
I left from my home
in the [C]town of Ath[G]lone
On my way to the [Em]Three Jolly Pi[Am]geons
[D]It was [G]near Glaston Town,
on the [C]road I sat down
[G]I looked ove[C]r the bea[D]utiful Shannon[G]
[D]Lough [G]Ree, O Lough Ree,
where the [C]three counties
[G]meet
Loughford, West[Em]meath
and [Am]Roscommon
[D]As I [G]stroll round her banks
by the [C]heather and [G]peat
They're the [C]memories I've [D]never
[G]forgot[D]ten[G][C][G][C][D][G]
Oh, sad was the day
when I [C]went far away
[G]To work amongst tim[Em] ber and con [Am]crete
[D]I must m[G]ake me a plan,
for to [C]follow life's [G]plan
I for[C]sook the dear [D]place of my [G]homeland
[D]If [G]God grants me grace,
I'll re[C]turn to the [G]place
When the sunset of [Em]life
has come [Am]o 'er me
[D]Once aga[G]in on these shores,
like a [C]bird my heart [G]soars
As I [C]gaze on the [D]beauty around [G]me
[D]Loughrie, [G]O Loughrie,
where the [C]three counties
[G]meet
Loughford, West[Em]meath
and [Am]Roscommon
[D]As [G]I stroll round their banks
by the [C]heather and [G]peat
They're the [C]memories I've
[D]never forgot[G]ten
[D]Loughrie, [G]O Loughrie,
where the [C]three counties
[G]meet
Loughford, West[Em]meath
and [Am]Roscommon
[D]As I [G]straw round her banks,
by the [C]heather and [G]peach,
they're the [C]memories
I've [D]never forgotten.
[G]
