Intro 1
(B minor) (B minor) (B minor) (B minor)
Verse 1
As (B minor) down the glen one Easter morn
to a city (E minor) fair rode (B minor) I
There (B minor) armed lines of marching men
in squadrons (E minor) passed me (B minor) by
No (D major) pipe did hum nor (E minor) battle (D major) drum
did (B minor) sound its loud tattoo
But the Angelus Bells o'er the (A major) Liffey swells
rang (B minor) out in the (E minor) foggy (B minor) dew
(B minor) (B minor)

Verse 2
Right (B minor) proudly high in (E minor) Dublin town (D major)
hung they out a (G major) flag of (B minor) war (E minor) (B minor)
'Twas better to die 'neath that (E minor) Irish (D major) sky
Than at Suvla or (G major) Sedd el (B minor) Bahr (E minor) (B minor)
(A major) And (D major) from the plains of (A major) Royal Meath (D major)
strong men came (G major) hurrying (B minor) through (E minor) (B minor)
While Britannia's huns
with their (E minor) long range (F sharp minor) guns
sailed (D major) in through the (G major) foggy (B minor) dew (E minor) (B minor)

(D major) (G major) (B minor)
Verse 3
The (B minor) bravest fell and the (E minor) requiem (F sharp minor) bell
rang (D major) mournful (G major) ly and (B minor) clear (E minor) (B minor)
For those who died that (E minor) Easter (D major) tide
in the springing (G major) of the (B minor) year (E minor) (B minor)
(A major) While the (D major) world did gaze with (A major) deep a (D major) maze
at those (B minor) fearless (G major) men, but (B minor) few (E minor) (B minor)
Who bore the fight that (E minor) freedom's light (F sharp minor)
might (D major) shine through the (G major) foggy
(B minor) dew (E minor) (B minor)

Verse 4
And (B minor) back through the glen I (E minor) rode a (D major) gain
and my (B minor) heart with (E minor) grief was (B minor) sore
For I (E minor) parted then with valiant (D major) men
whom I (B minor) never (E minor) shall see (B minor) more
But (D major) to and fro in my (E minor) dreams I (D major) go
And I (B minor) kneel and (G major) pray for you
For (B minor) slavery fled, O glorious dead
When you fell in the foggy dew
