Verse 1
D
Walking all the day
A
G
D
Near tall towers
Em
A
D
where falcons build their nests
A
Silver -winged they fly
G
D
Em
They know a call of freedom
A
D
in their breasts
G
A
Saw a blackhead against the sky
D
With twisted rocks,
Bm
D
E
A
they run down to the sea
G
D
Living on your western shore
Em
A
Saw summer sunsets ask for more
G
D
A
Stood by your Atlantic sea
Em
D
G
A
And sang a song for Ireland
D
A
Talking all the day
G
D
Em
With true friends who
A
D
try and make you stay
A
Telling jokes and news,
G
D
and singing songs to
Em
A
D
pass the time
G
A
Watch the Galway salmon run,
D
Bm
like silver dancing,
D
E
A
darting in the sun
G
D
Living on your western shore,
Em
A
saw summer sunsets, asked for more
G
D
A
Stood by your Atlantic sea,
Em
D
G
A
D
and sang a song for Ireland
A
Drinking all the day
G
D
Em
In old pubs where fiddlers
A
D
loved to play
A
Someone touched a bow
G
D
And played a reel
Em
A
D
that seemed so grand and gay
G
A
Stood on Dingle Beach
D
and cast in wild foam
Bm
D
E
and found Atlantic bass
A
G
D
Living on your western shore,
Em
A
saw summer sunsets, asked for more
G
D
A
Stood by your Atlantic sea
Em
D
G
A
And sang a song for Ireland
D
A
Dreaming in the night
G
D
By sea land where
Em
A
D
no one has to fight
A
But waking in the dawn,
G
D
Em
I see you crying in
A
D
the morning light
G
A
Flying where the falcons fly,
D
Bm
D
they twist and turn in
E
A
the red and blue sky
G
D
Living on your western shore,
Em
A
Saw summer sunsets, asked for more.
G
D
A
Stood by your Atlantic sea,
Em
D
G
A
And sang a song for Ireland.
D
