Verse 1
BOULAVOGUE (D major) (B minor)
(P.J.McCall)
At Boulavogue, as the (D major) sun was (G major) setting
O'er (D major) bright (F sharp minor) May (B minor) meadows
(E minor) of (G major) (D major) Shelmalier,
A rebel (B minor) hand set the (D major) heather (G major) blazing
An (D major) d brought the (B minor) neighbors
from (A major) far and (D major) near.
(A major) Then (D major) Father (F sharp minor) Murphy,
from (G major) old (E minor) Kilcormack,
(D major) Spurred up the (B minor) rocks with a
(E minor) warning (G major) (A major) cry;
(D major) "Arm! Arm!" he (B minor) cried,
"for I've (D major) come to (G major) lead you,
For (D major) Ireland's (B minor) freedom we fight (A major)
or (D major) die." (B minor) (D major) (B minor)
He (D major) led us (B minor) on 'gainst the (D major) coming (G major) soldiers,
The cowardly (D major) (B minor) Yeomen we (E minor)
put to (G major) (F sharp minor) flight;
(D major) 'Twas at the (B minor) Harrow the (D major)
boys of (G major) Wexford
Showed (D major) (B minor) Bookey's regiment
how (A major) men could (D major) fight.
(A major) Look out (D major) for (F sharp minor) hirelings,
King (G major) George of (E minor) England,
Search (D major) (F sharp minor) every (B minor) kingdom
where (E minor) breathes a slave, (G major)
(A major) For Father (D major) (B minor) Murphy of the
(D major) County (G major) Wexford
Sweeps (D major) o'er the (B minor) land like a (A major) mighty (D major) wave.
We took (B minor) (D major) Camolin and Enniscorthy,
(B minor) And Wexford storming drove out our
foes;
'Twas at Slieve Coillte our pikes
were reeking
With the crim (D major) son stream of the
beaten yeos.
At Tubberneering and Ballyellis
Full many a (B minor) Hes sian
lay in his gore;
Ah, Father Murphy, had aid come over,
The (D major) green flag floated
from shore to shore!
At Vinegar Hill, o'er the pleasant (G major) Slaney,
Our (D major) heroes (B minor) vainly stood (E minor) back to back (G major) ,
(A major) And the (D major) Yeos at (B minor) Tullow took
Father (D major) (G major) Murphy
And (D major) burned his (B minor) body upon (A major) the (D major) rack.
God grant you (F sharp minor) glory, brave (G major) Father (E minor) Murphy,
And (D major) open (B minor) Heaven to (E minor)
all (B minor) your (G major) (D major) men;
The cause that (B minor) called you
may (D major) call to (G major) morrow
In an (D major) other (B minor) fight for the green (A major) again.
(D major) Recorded by Galvin,
Clancys
