Verse:
       Bm                 A
At the foot of Knocknarea I pick up a stone
   G                            F#m
To carry to the top with all my troubles
     Bm                       A
I'll lay it on Maeve's cairn, high upon that mound
G                                 F#7
Stone upon hard stone I'll lay it down
  D             A              Bm              F#m
I have a man at home who wants more than I can give
      D                  A                   G   F#m
And a child who needs at least that much and better

Chorus:
   Bm
My heart is pulled tight, Maeve
        A
In this home that I have made
       G
At the foot of Knocknarea

Verse:
  Bm                   A
I hear a music play as great as any love
  G                           F#m
I carry for my husband and my daughter
   Bm                           A
It calls me from their reach, I look back with no ease
G                                    F#7
Can they stay awhile alone and leave me be?
 D             A          Bm            F#m
"No," says the voice that answers in my head
         D                   A             G  F#m
It's the voice that has been droning on forever__

Chorus:
        Bm
It's my mother's music, Maeve
  A
I sing with it always
     G
As I climb up Knocknarea

Bridge:
        D             A    Em             A
And the wind, it does rage here on Knocknarea
       D              A               Bm    F#m
It's a rage that I've learned all too well
        Bm
I will speak the truth from now
    A
And show my young girl how
        G                E7
For her voice depends on mine

I'll lay it on Maeve's cairn, high upon that mound
G                                 F#7
Stone upon hard stone I'll lay it down

At the foot of Knocknarea I pick up a stone
