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