F
Bb
And keep them neatly sure?
Gm
Eb
Though stacked but in the haggard,
Bb
F
untrashed it may remain
Bb
Eb
Since Johnny, lovely Johnny,
Bb
F
Bb
went to fight the killer spin
O 'er the garrows from the barn o 'er,
In sorrow may retire,
F
Bb
And the piper and his bellows
Eb
Bb
F

Go home and low the fire.
Gm
Eb
Since Johnny, lovely Johnny,
Bb

is sailing o 'er the main
Bb

Along with other patriots
Bb

to fight the King of Spain
And the boys will sorely miss him

Now he's the king of Spain
At wakes and harling matches,
Bb

Until you return again to us,
Bb

Bb
Gm
Eb
And won't you draw the bookings,
Bb
F
who show us much to stay?
Bb
Eb
Because our eyes are not so bright
Bb
F

as those you'd meet in Spain
If cruel fate will not permit
Bb
Eb
His heavy loss, the Bantry girls
Bb
F
Bb
will never cease to mourn
Gm
Eb
We'll resign ourselves to our sad lot
Bb

And die in grief and pain
Bb
Eb
Since Johnny died for Ireland's pride
Bb

In the foreign lands of Spain
