     G
By a lonely prison wall
  C                  G    D    D7
I heard a young girl calling
G                  C         D    D7
Michael, they have taken you away
        G                C
For you stole Trevelyn's corn
        G                  D
So the young might see the morn
      D                D7             G
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay
 
 
G   C       G              Em
Low lie the fields of Athenry
G                         Em               D   D7
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
G                   C           G                   D
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
        D                 D7             G
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
 
 
 G
By a lonely prison wall
C                  G    D    D7
I heard a young man calling
G                  C         D    D7
Nothing matters, Mary when you're free
 G                C
Against the famine and the crown
  G                  D
I rebelled, they cut me down
 D                D7             G
Now you must raise our child with dignity
 
 
G   C       G              Em
Low lie the fields of Athenry
G                         Em               D   D7
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
G                   C           G                   D
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
        D                 D7             G
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
 
 
 G
By a lonely harbor wall
C                  G    D    D7
She watched the last star falling
G                  C         D    D7
As that prison ship sailed out against the sky
 G                C
Sure she'll wait and hope and pray
  G                  D
For her love in Botany Bay
D                D7             G
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
 
 
G   C       G              Em
Low lie the fields of Athenry
G                         Em               D   D7
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
G                   C           G                   D
Our love was on the wing we had dreams and songs to sing
        D                 D7             G
It's so lonely 'round the fields of Athenry
