Intro N.C. G C G G C G Goodbye IrelandVerse 1:
G The moment's drawing nearer now C G And I know this means more than most goodbyes G I linger on familiar scenes, D it's like looking through a stranger's eyes C I'm no vagabond traveller G In my heart you hold all that I hold dear G In my soul I feel the famine D G And on my face I feel an emerald tearG Goodbye Ireland C G I must sail across this ocean alone G Knowing time's a silent thief D Knowing should I never see you again D An emptiness shall follow me til my life's end G Goodbye IrelandVerse 2:
G The ship lies in the harbor now C G And the captain he'll not wait for nary man G Tis fair the well I must be saying D Then quickly I will go while I still can C There's a new world waiting for me G And I go in search of something that we've lost G Please say that you'll forgive me D G D G For my heart's too weak to bare a heavy crossG Goodbye Ireland C G I must sail across this ocean alone G Knowing time's a silent thief D Knowing should I never see you again D An emptiness shall follow me til my life's end G Goodbye Ireland, goodbye Ireland D G Will I ever see you again
