Verse 1
Thank you very much.
(G major) I'd like to sing a Rebel song,
which I'm very proud to be able to
sing
because it was sung
by a great man of labour
(C major) in Ireland called (F major) James Larkin.
(G major) It's called The Rising of the Moon. (C major)
At the rising of the moon,
at the (G major) rising of the moon,
With your (F major) pike upon your (C major) shoulder,
at the (G major) rising of the (C major) moon,
And come tell me, Sean O 'Farrell,
tell me (G major) why you hurry so
Hush of (F major) the local, hush and (C major) listen,
and his (G major) cheeks were all (C major) aglow
I bear orders from the captain,
get you (G major) ready quick and soon
For the (F major) pikes must be togeth (C major) er
at the (G major) rising of the (C major) moon
At the rising of the moon,
at the (G major) rising of the moon,
All the (F major) pikes must be togeth (C major) er
at the (G major) rising of (C major) the moon.
And come tell me, Sean O 'Farrell,
where the (G major) gathering is to be
At the (F major) old spot by the (C major) river,
quite well (G major) known to you and (C major) me.
One more word for signal, token,
whistle (G major) out the marching tune
With your (F major) pike upon your (C major) shoulder
and (G major) the rising of (C major) the moon
And the rising of the moon,
and the (G major) rising of the moon
With your (F major) pike upon your (C major) shoulder
and (G major) the rising of (C major) the moon
Out from many a mud -walled cabin
eyes were (G major) watching through the night
Many a (F major) manly heart was (C major) beating
for the blessed morn (G major) ing (C major) light
Murmurs rang along the valley
to the (G major) banshee's lonely croon
And a (F major) thousand pikes were (G major) flashing
(C major) by the (G major) rising of the (C major) moon
By the rising of the moon,
by the (G major) rising of the moon
And a (F major) thousand lights are (C major) flashing
by the rising (G major) of (C major) the moon
All along the singing river
that black (G major) mass of men was seen
High above (F major) their shining (C major) weapons
flew their (G major) own beloved greed (C major)
Death to every foe and traitor,
whistle (G major) out the marching tune
And to (F major) Ramy, boys, for (C major) freedom,
tis the (G major) rising of the (C major) moon
Tis the rising of the moon,
tis the (G major) rising of the moon
And to (F major) Ramy, boys, for (C major) freedom,
tis the rising (G major) of the (C major) moon
Thank you.
