Verse 1: (light pm, listen for rythym)
Eb* G#* Eb* Bb*
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling

Michael they have taken you away

For you stole Trevelyn's corn, so the young might see the morn
Bb* Eb
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay
Chorus:
Eb G# Eb Cm
Low lie the Fields of Athenry
Eb G# Bb
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Eb G# Eb Bb
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
Bb Eb
It's so lonely 'round the Fields of Athenry
