Verse 1:
Bbm ( Ab Fm )
A ↑Stór Mo Chroí, when you're far a↓way
( Bbm Ab ) Bbm
From the home that you'll soon be leaving
Bbm ( Ab Fm )
It's many a time by night and by day
( Bbm Ab ) Bbm
That your heart will be sorely grieving
( Bbm Db ) ( Fm Bbm )
For the stranger's land may be ↑-bright and fair
( Gb Db ) ( Bbm Fm )
And rich in its treasures ↑-gol-den
( Bbm Db ) ( Ab Fm )
You'll pine, I know, for the long ago
( Bbm Fm ) Bbm
And the love that is never olden
Verse 2:
Bbm ( Ab Fm )
A ↑Stór Mo Chroí, in the stranger's land
( Bbm Ab ) Bbm
There is plenty of wealth and wailing
Bbm ( Ab Fm )
While gems adorn the great and grand
( Bbm Ab ) Bbm
There are faces with hunger pailing
( Bbm Db ) ( Fm Bbm )
The road is weary, and ↑-hard to tread
( Gb Db ) ( Bbm Fm )
And the lights of their cities ↑-blind you
( Bbm Db ) ( Ab Fm )
Wont you turn A Stor, to Erin's shore
( Bbm Fm ) Bbm
And the love that you left behind you

Verse 3:
Bbm ( Ab Fm )
A ↑Stór Mo Chroí, when the evening's sun
( Bbm Ab ) Bbm
Over mountain and meadow is falling
Bbm ( Ab Fm )
Wont you turn away, from the throng and list
( Bbm Ab ) Bbm
And maybe you'll hear me calling
( Bbm Db ) ( Fm Bbm )
For the sound of a voice that is ↑-surely min-e
( Gb Db ) ( Bbm Fm )
For somebody's speedy re↑tur-ning
( Bbm Db ) ( Ab Fm )
A rún, a rún, won't you come back soon
( Bbm Fm ) Bbm
To the one that will always love you
