[D]Come over the [Bm]hills, my [Em]bonnie Irish [G]lass

Come [D]over the [Bm]hills to your[G]dar[A]ling

[G]You choose the [D]rose love, and[G]I’ll make the[Em]vow

And [D]I’ll be your[G]true[D]love for[A7]ev[D]er

[D]Red is the [Bm]rose that in [Em]yonder garden [G]grows

And [D]fair is the [Bm]lily of the [G]val [A]ley

[G]Clear is the [D]water that [G]flows from the [Em]Boyne

But [D]my love is [G]fairer than [A7]a[D]ny.
[/chordsandlyrics]

‘Twas down by Killarney’s green woods that we strayed
When the moon and the stars they were shining
The moon shone its rays on her locks of golden hair
And she swore she’d be my love forever
It’s not for the parting of my sister Kate
It’s not for the loss of my mother
It’s all for the loss of my bonnie Irish lass
That is leaving old Ireland forever.

It’s not for the parting that my sister pains
It’s not for the grief of my mother
‘Tis all for the loss of my bonnie Irish lass
That my heart is breaking forever.
