  performed by:Mary Black on Putumayo presents "Women of the Celtic World"

  Transcribed by: Dirk Cushenbery (dirkcush@pdq.net)

  

  Verse 1:

  [D]Walking all the [A]day

  Near[G] tall [D/F#]towers where [G/E]falcons build[A] their nests[D]

  [D]Silver-winged they [A]fly

  They [em]know the [bm]call of  [G]freedom [A]in their [D]breasts

  [G]Saw Black Head a[Asus]gainst the sky[A]

  Where [D]twisted [bm]rocks they [D]run down[G] to the [A]sea

  

  Chorus:

  [G]Living on[A] your we[D]stern shore[bm]

  [bm]Saw summer [D]sunsets, [G]asked for [A]more

  [G]I stood by [A]your At[D]lantic [A]Sea

  And [em]sang a [bm]song for[G] I[A]re[D]land

  

  Verse 2:

  Drinking all the day

  In old pubs where fiddlers love to play

  Saw one touch the bow

  He played a reel which seemed so grand and gay

  Stood on Dingle Beach and cast

  In wild foam we found Atlantic bass

  

  Chorus  

  

  Verse 3:

  Talking all the day

  With true friends who try to make you stay

  Telling jokes and news

  Singing songs to pass the time away

  Watched the Galway salmon run

  Like silver dancing, darting in the sun

  

  Chorus

  

  Verse 4:

  Dreaming in the night

  I saw a land where no one had to fight

  Waking in your dawn

  I saw you crying in the morning light

  Sleeping where the falcons fly

  They twist and turn all in your air-blue sky

  

  Chorus
