A                    D                    A    D     A      A  D X2
I?ve just dropped in to see you all, I?ll only stay awhile?
  A                       D             A                  D    D
I want to hear how you?re getting on, I want to see you smile?
    A           D               A                 D      D 
I?m happy to be back again, And greet you big and small?
            A           D                    A        D     A 
For there?s no place on earth just like, The homes of Donegal

  A                D                 A        D      A       D 
I long to see your smiling children, Standing by the door?
    A              D              A                D     D
The kettle boiling on the hearth, As I walk up the floor?
    A             D                  A                  D    D  
And then to see a welcome free, ?For travellers one and all?
            A                    D                  A        D     A 
Foooor your hearts are like your mountains, ?In the homes of Donegal

    A            D                   A     D        A       D 
I?d like to stay along with you, And while away the night?
     A              D              A                    D       D
With fairy lore and tales of yore, Beside the turf fire bright?
    A                D             A                 D      D  
And then to see laid out for me, A shake-down by the wall
               A              D                    A        D     A
Foooor there?s rest for weary wanderers, iiiin the homes of Donegal

VERSE 5:
    A             D                 A       D    A      D 
The time has come for me to go, And bid you all adieu
        A            D              A                    D   D
For the open highway calls me back, To do these things I do?
    A                   D              A                     D     D
But when I?m travelling far away, Your friendship I.I.I.I?ll recall?
           A             D                A        D     A
And please God I?ll soon return unto, The homes of Donegal
