Verse 1
G 
Come listen to the story
Gaug 
C 
of     an exile so forlorn
A 
Who's here today, so far away
D 
From the land where I was born
G 
Gaug 
But still I smell the heather
C 
Oh, I see her lake so grand
A 
For every night it's my delight
D 
to dream of my homeland
G 
I can see the homes of Donegal,
C 
the hills of Glenswalee
Am 
D 
I   see the moon behind the hill,
C 
D 
G 
the cottage by the lee
B 
I can see my mother's homestead
C 
from where the thatchin' gleams
B 
Em 
I'll reach out and touch them
Am 
D 
G 
When they're in my exile's dream
D 
Every hill and valley
G 
Every mountain stream
A 
From the Boyne to the Shallon
D 
A 
D 
From the lagoon to the league
G 
B 
Ireland is my homeland
C 
The likes I've never seen
G 
Em 
It's my Irish home
Am 
D 
Far o 'er the foam
Am 
D

That's in my exile's dream

G 
Oh, now that I'm returning
Gaug 
C 
To     sweet Aaron's fragrant shores
A 
My fortune made, my passage paid
Dsus4 
C 
D 
My days away are old
G 
Gaug 
And in a rusty cottage
G 
C 
Waits my Colleen, Mary Ann
G 
A 
With lips I've missed and longed to kiss
D 
I'll take her by the hand
G 
And we'll see the homes of Dolly Gold,
C 
Am 
the hills of Glen Sweely
D 
We'll see the moon behind the hill,
C 
D 
G 
the cottage by the lee
B 
And we'll see my mother's homestead
C 
From where the thatchin' gleams
B 
Em 
I'll reach out and touch them
Am 
D 
G 
No more an exile's dream

I'll reach out and touch them no more
