INTRO:
C F F F G C


VERSE 1:
C                        F             C
It's been ten years and three since I first went to sea
           F               D           G
Since I've sailed from old Ireland and home
          C              F            C
But those hills lush and green were a part of my dream
       F             G         C
When I dreamed of my Colleen Malone

VERSE 2:
C               F            C
On the day I returned to my sorrow I learned
         F          D           G
That the angels had called her away
     C          F        C
To a grave on a hill overlooking the mill
           F                 G          C
That's the place where she's sleeping today


CHORUS:
       G                              F        C
As the soft breezes blow, through the meadow I go
         F             C            G
Past the mill with the moss covered stone
                                    F             C
Up the pathway I climb, through the woods and the vines
   F          G         C
To be with my Colleen Malone


VERSE 3:
C                      F        C
She was faithful each day as I sailed far away
          F          D           G
There was no one but me that she loved
        C            F              C
And I remember those eyes, soft and blue as the skies
        F            G         C
And her heart was as pure as a dove


CHORUS:
       G                              F        C
As the soft breezes blow, through the meadow I go
         F             C            G
Past the mill with the moss covered stone
G                                    F             C
Up the pathway I climb, through the woods and the vines
   F          G         C
To be with my Colleen Malone


INSTRUMENTAL:
C  F  C  F  D  G  C  F  C  F  G  C


VERSE 4:
                    F           C
All the years of my life I will not take a wife
       F            D       G
I will live in this valley alone
         C        F            C
Planting flowers around in the soft gentle ground
       F          G         C
That's holding my Colleen Malone


CHORUS:
       G                              F        C
As the soft breezes blow, through the meadow I go
         F             C            G
Past the mill with the moss covered stone
G                                    F             C
Up the pathway I climb, through the woods and the vines
   F          G         C
To be with my Colleen Malone
G                                    F             C
Up the pathway I climb, through the woods and the vines
   F          G         C
To be with my Colleen Malone
