Verse 1
You know, (D major) one of my fondest memories
as a boy (G major) growing (D major) up in Ireland
was visiting my granny every
day after school.
Granny, she had one of these old
gramophones
with the horn and the handle.
That was my job, you know,
(G major) turning the handle.
(D major) But she had a
great record collection.
She loved singers.
And of course her favourite
singer of all
was John McCormack
and I can still see her sit
(B minor) ting there (D major) in the old armchair
with her eyes closed
and a gentle tear
listening to Mother Macree. (B minor) (G major) (D major) (Adim)
(A major) (D major) (A major) (A minor) (D major) (B minor) (G major) (D major) may own.
There's a depth in my (G major) soul
(D major) never sounded (E major) or known.
(A major) There's a (D major) place in my (B minor) memory
my (G major) life that you feel,
no other can take (D major) it,
no one (E major) ever will. (A major)
Sure (D major) I love the dear silver
(A major) that (D major) shines (A major) in your (D major) hair,
And the brow (G major) that's all (D major) furrowed
and (B minor) wrinkled (E major) with care. (A major)
(D major) I kiss the dear fingers,
so toil (G major) won for (B minor) me.
(F sharp major) Oh, God bless (G major) you and (D major) keep you,
Mother (G minor) Macqueen.
(D major) (B minor) (G major) (D major) (Adim) (A major)
(D major) (A minor) Every (D major) sorrow or (B minor) care
in (G major) the dear (D major) days gone by
Was made bright by the (G major) light
of (D major) the smile (E major) in your (A major) eye
Like (D major) a candle that's set (B minor) in
a window (G major) at night
Your fond love has cheered (D major) (A major) me
and guided (E major) me right (A major)
Sure, (D major) I love the dear silver
(E flatdim) that (D major) shines in (A major) your hair (D major)
And the (G major) brow that's all fur (D major) rowed,
And (E major) wrinkled with care. (A major)
(D major) I kiss the dear finger (Adim) s,
(D major) So toil (G major) won for (B minor) me.
Oh, (F sharp major) God (E major) bless (G major) you and (D major) keep you,
Mother (G minor) Mocre (D major) (G major) e. (G minor) (D major)
Thank you for
Mother Machree
