Verse 1:
   G+G     D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD
Oh! I want to go back to that tumble down shack,
     E minorEm     A augmentedA        D7D7
Where the wild roses bloom 'round the door,
    C majorC            D MajorD      E minorEm
Just to pillow my head, in that ould trundle bed,
   A augmentedA             D MajorD
Just to see my ould mother once more.
     G+G        D MajorD       G+G     D MajorD
There's a bright gleaming light, guiding me home tonight,
     G+G      B minorBm      E minorEm
Down the long road of white cobble stone,
     C majorC        D MajorD       G+G      E minorEm
Down the road that leads back, to that tumble down shack,
    C majorC      D MajorD      G+G
To that tumble down shack in Athlone.

Verse 2:
   D MajorD       G+G      D MajorD       G+G
I'm a long way from home and my thoughts ever roam
    E minorEm    G+G    A augmentedA   D MajorD
To ould Erin far over the sea,
    C majorC      G+G        C majorC      G+G
For my heart it is there, where the skies are so fair
     E minorEm     A augmentedA      D MajorD
And ould Ireland is calling for me.
     G+G        D MajorD       G+G     D MajorD
There's a bright gleaming light, guiding me home tonight,
     G+G      B minorBm      E minorEm
Down the long road of white cobble stone,
     C majorC        D MajorD       G+G      E minorEm
Down the road that leads back, to that tumble down shack,
    C majorC      D MajorD      G+G
To that tumble down shack in Athlone.

Verse 3:
      G+G      D MajorD      G+G      D MajorD
There are eyes that are sad, as they watch for a lad,
    E MajorE       A augmentedA     D7D7
In the old fashioned town of Athlone,
   C majorC             D MajorD    E minorEm
And I pray for the day, when I'm sailing away,
    A augmentedA            D MajorD
To ould Ireland, and mother, my own.
     G+G        D MajorD       G+G     D MajorD
There's a bright gleaming light, guiding me home tonight,
     G+G      B minorBm      E minorEm
Down the long road of white cobble stone,
     C majorC        D MajorD       G+G      E minorEm
Down the road that leads back, to that tumble down shack,
    C majorC      D MajorD      G+G
To that tumble down shack in Athlone.
