Shanagolden - Liam Clancy

Verse 1:
   C majorC         A minorAm       FF        C majorC
The cold winds from the mountains, are calling soft to me,
  G+G        E minorEm       A minorAm   G7G7
The smell of scented heather, brings bitter memories,
  G+G        E minorEm    A minorAm      G7G7
The wild and lonely eagle, up in the summer sky,
   A minorAm      FF              C majorC
Flies high or Shannagolden, where my young Willy lies

Verse 2:
  C majorC      A minorAm     FF         C majorC
Do you remember darling, we walked the moonlit road,
 G+G       E minorEm       A minorAm      G7G7
I held you in my arms then, I'd never let you go,
  G+G        E minorEm        A minorAm          G7G7
Our hands they were entwined my love all in the pale moonlight,
    A minorAm       FF              C majorC
By the fields of Shanagolden, on a lonely winter's night.

Verse 3:
   C majorC        A minorAm         FF        C majorC
Then came the call to arms love, and the hills they were aflamed,
   G+G        E minorEm       A minorAm       G7G7
Down from the silent mountains, the Saxon strangers came,
  G+G       E minorEm      A minorAm          G7G7
I held you in my arms then, my young heart wild with fear,
    A minorAm       FF                 C majorC
By the fields of Shanagolden, in the spring time of the year.

Verse 3:
    C majorC          A minorAm     FF          C majorC
And you fought them darling Willy, all through those summer days,
 G+G        E minorEm       A minorAm       G7G7
I heard the rifles firing, in the mountains far away,
 G+G       E minorEm       A minorAm         G7G7
I held you in my arms then, your blood ran free and bright,
  A minorAm        FF              C majorC
And you died in Shanagolden on a lonely winter's night.

Verse 4:
    C majorC       A minorAm          FF         C majorC
Oh but that was long ago my love, and our son grows fine and tall,
  G+G         E minorEm        A minorAm       G7G7
The hills they are at peace again, the Saxon strangers gone,
    G+G       E minorEm           A minorAm       G7G7
There's roses on your grave my love, there's an eagle in the sky,
    A minorAm      FF              C majorC
Flying high or Shanagolden, where my young Willy died.

Verse 1:
   C majorC         A minorAm       FF        C majorC
The cold winds from the mountains, are calling soft to me,
  G+G        E minorEm       A minorAm   G7G7
The smell of scented heather, brings bitter memories,
  G+G        E minorEm    A minorAm      G7G7
The wild and lonely eagle, up in the summer sky,
   A minorAm      FF              C majorC
Flies high or Shannagolden, where my young Willy lies
