Verse 1:
  A augmentedA        D MajorD      E MajorE    A augmentedA
Tara's on my mind, getting worse as time goes by,
  B minorBm     C# minorC#m        E MajorE        B minorBm
I've got to make the time to see it once before I die,
    A augmentedA          D MajorD        E MajorE        A augmentedA
The slow train has no bar on board, but that won’t make me cry,
 B minorBm         C# minorC#m    E MajorE     B minorBm   E MajorE
For thinkin' of you Tara, Lord I'm drunk enough to fly.

Chorus:
  A augmentedA      D MajorD     B minorBm   E MajorE
If you were a lass, you'd be my bride
   B minorBm          A augmentedA
And our love would be a treasure,
      E MajorE       B minorBm    E MajorE
Ever would we fly, beneath an Irish sky.
 A augmentedA     D MajorD       B minorBm    E MajorE
If you were a dream, I'd stay asleep,
   B minorBm          A augmentedA
And if dreams were made to measure,
         E MajorE       B minorBm
I'd be dreaming still, and I’d drink my fill,
 E MajorE      A augmentedA
Tonight on Tara Hill.

Verse 2:
  A augmentedA       D MajorD      E MajorE            A augmentedA
And men have died around you, for Kings and Queens and peers
   B minorBm         C# minorC#m       E MajorE           B minorBm
But they left you as they found you, tho' your talked to them the same
  A augmentedA       D MajorD      E MajorE     A augmentedA
Songs of love and bravery, songs of yesteryear,
   B minorBm        C# minorC#m       E MajorE      B minorBm  E MajorE
But the songs about your beauty are the songs I'd love to hear.


Chorus:
  A augmentedA      D MajorD     B minorBm   E MajorE
If you were a lass, you'd be my bride
   B minorBm          A augmentedA
And our love would be a treasure,
      E MajorE       B minorBm    E MajorE
Ever would we fly, beneath an Irish sky.
 A augmentedA     D MajorD       B minorBm    E MajorE
If you were a dream, I'd stay asleep,
   B minorBm          A augmentedA
And if dreams were made to measure,
         E MajorE       B minorBm
I'd be dreaming still, and I’d drink my fill,
 E MajorE      A augmentedA
Tonight on Tara Hill.
