Verse 1
(G major) Tell me (C major) why must a man (G major) be of service
To his (C major) lord and the god (G major) seldom high
From the (C major) grave spring
the name (G major) of our fathers
But there's no (C major) glint in a (A minor) dead (G major) man's (D major) eye
Verse 2
(G major) Tell (C major) me why are our fields
filled (G major) with hunger
And fruit (C major) less the crop bitter (G major) soil
So I (C major) say my farewell to (G major) a nation
As the leaf (C major) waves (A minor) goodbye
to (D major) it's son (D minor)
(D major) So it's to youth (C major)

Verse 3
I sing you (G major) this story
And it's of youth (C major) I sing (G major) it now
Like the train (C major) that derails without (G major) warning
I (A minor) must leave what I left far (D major) behind

(D major) I say (G major) goodbye (C major)
(G major) (C major) (G major) (D major)
Verse 4
(G major)
Tell (C major) me why must our peace

Verse 5
And it's of youth (C major) I sing (G major) it now

(C major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
Verse 6
And the bark (D minor) fell from tree
To (D major) the ground (C major) that (G major) they'll bleed
On (D major) the anguish that never
learned (G major) to shout
With (D major) the clash of (D minor) the drum
We'll (D major) surrender (C major) (G major) the gun
And on this sad (D minor) ness we shall
no longer (G major) speak
Verse 7
Until time (C major) can live on our (G major) all
forgotten songs
That's when (C major) I and we will sing again (D major)
So goodbye (G major) to my love, (C major)
my sweet (D major) (G major) Roisin Dubh
Goodbye now until (D major) we meet
again
(G major) (C major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (A minor) (G major)
Verse 8
Tell me (C major) why must our grief (G major) still be greiving
For a (C major) language that never

But this (C major) tongue speak with fire
will tear (G major) down the barb wire
And Rip the (C major) belly from the (A minor) waxy ghost
So it's to youth (C major)
