Danny Boy

Frederic Weatherly - 1910

in C

Oh, Danny Cboy, Cmaj7___ the C7pipes, the pipes are Fcalling, Fm
From glen to Cglen, and Amdown the mountain D7side. G
The summer's Cgone, Cmaj7 and all the C7roses Ffalling, Fm
It's you, it's Cyou Am must Dmgo and GI must Cbide.

But come ye back when summer's in the meadow,
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow,
It's I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow,
Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so!

But when ye come, and all the flowers are dying,
If I am dead, as dead I well may be,
You'll come and find the place where I am lying,
And kneel and say an Ave there for me.

And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me,
And all my grave will warmer, sweeter be,
For you will bend and tell me that you love me,
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me!

(or)

And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me,
And all my dreams will warm, sweeter be,
If you'll not fail to tell me that you love me,
I'll simply sleep in peace until you come to me!
