        D                        G          D
You may travel far far from your own native home
     D                          A           Bm
Far away oer the mountains far away oer the foam
       D                        A         Bm
But of all the fine places that I've ever seen,
        D           Bm            G            A
There's none can compare with the cliffs of Dooneen
 
       A            D              G                 D
Take a view oer the mountains fine sights you'll see there
               D                           A             Bm
You'll see the high rocky mountains on the West coast of Clare
    D                       A          Bm
The towns of Kilrush and Kilkee can be seen
         D          Bm               G            A
From the high rocky slopes round the cliffs of Dooneen
 
       A             D       G             D
It s a nice place to be on a fine Summer's day
         D                         A          Bm
Watching all the wild flowers that ne'er do decay
    D                           A           Bm
The hare and lofty pheasant are plain to be seen
       D               Bm              G            A
Making homes for their young round the cliffs of Dooneen
 
          A          D              G          D
Fare thee well to Dooneen fare thee well for a while
       D                       A         Bm
And to all the fine people I'm leaving behind
       D                             A           Bm
To the streams and the meadows where late I have been
        D          Bm               G      A     D    A D
And the high rocky slopes round the cliffs of Dooneen

Well done! Listening to the Paddy Reilly live version on Youtube, I'm hearing two bars of C rather than an Am on "slopes". Also, at the end, he plays C F C, not C G C.
