Verse 1
Oh, (C major) the days of the Kerry dancing,
Oh, the ring of the (D major) Piper's tun (G major) e,
(C major) Oh, for one of those hours of gladness
Gone alas, like our (G major) youth, (C major) too soon.
Was there ever a sweeter Colleen
(A minor) In the (D major) dance the nightly (G major) bore,
Or (C major) a prouder lad than Paddy
As he (G major) boldly took the (C major) floor
Lads (G major) and lasses, to your places
Up the middle (E minor) and down (G major) again
Are the merry (Gdim) -hearted (C minor) laughter
(G major) Ringing through the (D major) happy (G major) glen
Oh, (F major) to think of (G major) it, oh, to dream of it,
fills my (G minor) heart with tears. (G major)
Oh, the (C major) days of the caddy dancing,
oh, the ring of a piper's (G major) tune.
(C major) Oh, for one of those hours of gladness,
gone alas,
like our youth (G major) too soon.
(C major) Time (C minor) goes on and the
(F minor) happy years (G major) are dead
And (C major) one by (A flat major) one the merry (G major) hearts are fled
Silent (B flat major) now (A flat major) is the (E flat major) wild and (C minor) lonely (B flat major) glen
Where the bright (E flat major) lad (G minor) laugh
will (D major) echo on air again (G minor)
Only (F minor) dreaming of (G major) days gone by,
(F minor) in my heart I (G major) hear
Loving (C major) voices of old companions,
(A minor) stealing out of the (D major) past (G major) once more
An (C major) d the sound of the dear (F major) old (C major) mu sic
Soft and sweet as in (G major) days of (C major) yore
When the (G major) boys began (E minor) to gather
In the glen of a (G major) summer night
And the merry piper's tun (C minor) ing
made (G major) us long with wild (D major) de (G major) light.
Oh, to (F major) think of it, (G major) oh, to dream of it,
fills my (G minor) heart with tears. (G major)
(C major) Oh, the days of the carry dancing,
oh, the ring of the piper (G major) 's tune.
(C major) Oh, for one of (F major) those hours of (C major) gladness,
God bless, like our (D major) youth (G major) too soon. (C major)
