Verse 1
(D major) Eileen O 'Grady, Come,
Come, Beautiful Lady (A major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (A major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) Now Eileen O 'Grady's a sweet Irish lady
I (G major) long far to call (E minor) her my (D major) own
Sure (E minor) I won't be contented
till she has consented
To (E major) be Mistress Barney Malone
(A major) I first (D major) met this treasure out
walking at leisure alone
(G major) on a bright summer's (F sharp major) day
Without any (E minor) warning the top of the morning
I (E major) just said to her right away (A major)
Come, (D major) come, beautiful Eileen, (A major) (D major)
come for a (G major) ride with (D major) me
Over the mountain, down by the fountain,
over (E major) the high (B major) road
and (A major) down by the by -road,
(D major) make up your mind, don't be unkind,
we'll drive to Castle Bar. (G major)
On the (D major) road I'm no (A major) stranger,
for (D major) you there's no (G major) danger,
so (D major) hop like a (A major) bird on (D major) the Argen
(G major) tine (D major) car. (A major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) Now Eileen said, no sir,
with you I won't go, sir,
don't (G major) think it ungrateful of (D major) me
Sure I'd rather (E minor) be walking
than have people talking,
you know (E major) what a story it would (A major) be
I (D major) then whispered, Jewelock,
don't be so cruel
to treat (G major) me like this is a (F sharp major) shame
Give over (E minor) your blarney
and come with your barney down,
don't (E major) have me bleeding in vain (A major)
(D major) Come, come, beautiful Eileen,
come for a (G major) drive with (D major) me
Over the mountain, down by the fountain,
(E major) over the high road
and down (A major) by the by -road
(D major) Make up your mind, don't be unkind,
We'll drive to Castle Bar. (G major)
On the (D major) road I'm no (A major) stranger for (D major) you,
There's no danger,
So hop like a (A major) bird on the
(D major) Elgin (G major) ton (D major) car. (A major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) When at last she consented,
I felt quite contented,
For to (G major) me it was a (E minor) moment (G major) of (D major) bliss.
As we drove (E minor) through Killarney
without any blarney
From Eileen (E major) I stole a sweet (A major) kiss
We both (D major) sat together like
birds of a feather
Well, (G major) Whisper, I'll tell what was (F sharp major) said
She promised (E minor) Big Garret
to share joy and sorrow
So to (E major) her I'll sing when we're (A major) well
(D major) Come, come, you do so highly,
come for a (G major) night of (D major) peace
Over the mountains,
down by the fountain,
(E major) over the high road
and (A major) down by the fire
One (D major) thing of the mind,
don't be unkind,
so drive to castle fire (G major)
On the (D major) road I'm no (A major) stranger for (D major) you,
there's no (G major) singer so (D major) hot
like a (A major) bird
on the (D major) edge of (G major) Santa Clara. (D major)
