Danny Boy chords by Harry Dean Stanton
Verse 1
C
I'll do Danny Boy.
G
What for the hell not?
C
I'm warmed up.
I should preface this song.
This was written by a father
singing to his son.
He had lost two sons in two other
wars.
He's singing to his youngest son
who's going to war.
And it's the Irish National Anthem.
Give the chord.
Oh Danny boy, the pipes,
the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down
the mountainside
G
C
The summer's gone
and all the leaves are falling
It's you, it's you must
G
C
go and I must bide
But come ye back
when summer's in the meadow
Or when the valley's hushed and
G
white with snow.
C
Yes I'll be here in sunshine
F
C
or in shadow.
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy,
G
C
I love you so.
And if you come and all the
leaves are dying,
and I'm dead as dead
Am
G
I will may be, you'll
C
Come and find the place where I am lying
Am
C
An d kneel and say an
G
C
Ave there for me
And I will hear those soft
F
C
you tread above me
Then all my dreams
Am
C
G
will warm and sweeter be
C
If you'll just bend and tell me
that you love me,
then I will sleep in peace until you come
Ab
C
Bb
to me."
C
F
That's it. . .
