  D G  D Bm  D G  A D

      D                                   G

  The last time I saw you was down at the Greeks

            D                     G            Bm

  There was whiskey on Sunday and tears on our cheeks

  A   D                             G

  You sang me a song as pure as the breeze

       D            G       A

  on a road leading up Glenaveigh

    D                      G

  I sat for a while at the cross at Finnoe

              D                          G               Bm

  Where young lovers would meet when the flowers were in bloom

  A     D                                        G

  Heard the men coming home from the fair at Shinrone

        D              G        A         D

  Their hearts in Tipperary wherever they go

          D                  G     A

  Take my hand, and dry your tears babe

          D                 G     A

  Take my hand, forget your fears babe

             D                     G  A

  There's no pain, there's no more sorrow

              D     G             A

  They're all gone,   gone in the years babe

   

  I sat for a while by the gap in the wall

  Found a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball

  Heard the cards being dealt, and the rosary called

  And a fiddle playing Sean Dun na nGall

  And the next time I see you we'll be down at the Greeks

  There'll be whiskey on Sunday and tears on our cheeks

  For it's stupid to laugh and it's useless to bawl

  About a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball

   

       D                     G   A

  So I walked as the day was dawning

                    D                    G   A

  Where small birds sang and leaves were falling

                D                     G   A

  Where we once watched the row boats landing

         D     G         A   D

  By the broad  majestic Shannon

   

  D G  D Bm  D G  A D
