Intro C/G  F  G   
      C/G  F  G  



C/G 
  My love she came to me 

Saddle up your horses three 
F 
 My father's land to keep 
G 
 Is yours to follow me 
C/G 
  All down to Beaufort flee 

Mother's blessing we need 
F 
 Sheep in Black Valley sing 
G 
 The pleasant joy we bring 



C/G 
  All around the ditches 

All around the Glen 
F 
 See the mountain Peak 
G 
 And hush the locals now 
C/G 
 Maid in the morning singing 

Babe in the cot now lye 
F 
 Stir the auld wans shivering 
G                     C/G 
 Tis not the night to die 

( C/G  F  G ) 
( C/G  F  G ) 

 

C/G 
  It came a child was born 

Feet fit the barleycorn 
F 
 Land filled his heart with scorn 
G 
 He took ship to New York 
C/G 
  Caught on the docklands there 

Met a wife so fair 
F 
 We haven't seen nor heard 
G 
 For two dozen a year 



C/G 
  All around the ditches 

All around the Glen 
F 
 Hold my still eyed stare 
G 
 For to keep my thoughts bare 
C/G 
  I haven't long to give 

I have not one to hold 
F 
 When the long day comes 
G                     C/G 
 I'll accept what I'm told 

( C/G  F  G ) 
( C/G  F  G ) 



C/G 
  And now the ivy leaves 

Creep up the walls on me 
F 
 The broken barren trees 
G 
 Reflect no life in me 
C/G 
  The palest clouds above 

The shallow river run 
F 
 Let my dampened bones 
G 
 Weary keep now at home 

 

C/G 
  All around the ditches 

All around the Glen 
F 
 See my fate is met 
G 
 And lay me down on high ground 
C/G 
  I wish to sit upon 

The golden throne of skies 
F 
 (And) watch valleys open 
G                     C/G 
 And see it from your eyes 

( C/G  F  G ) 
( C/G  F  G ) 

Final 

C/G 
  All around the ditches 

All around the Glen 
F 
 See my fate is met 
G 
 And lay me down on high ground 
C/G 
  I wish to sit upon 

The golden throne of skies 
F 
 (And) watch valleys open 
G                     C/G 
 And see it from your eyes
