Chords with lyrics

Verse 1

G+G                  C majorC   | A minorAm |
1. I've met some folk that say I am a dream-er
       D MajorD       D7D7         G+G
And I've no doubt there's truth in what they say
  G+G               C majorC   | A minorAm |
But sure a body's bound to be a dream-er
        D MajorD     D7D7         G+G
When all the things he loves are far a-way


Verse 2

  G+G                  C majorC   | A minorAm |
2. And prec-ious things are dreams unto an e-xile
        D MajorD     D7D7         G+G
They take him o'er the land a-cross the sea
  G+G                 C majorC   | A minorAm |
Especially when it hap-pens he's an exile
        D MajorD     D7D7         G+G  G7G7
From that dear lovely Isle of Innisfree

Bridge:
       C majorC               G+G
And when the moon-light peeps a-cross the roof tops
A augmentedA                 D MajorD | D7D7 |
Of this great city wondrous tho it be
  G+G                 C majorC   | A minorAm |
I scarcely feel its wonder or its laughter
        D MajorD     D7D7    G+G
I'm once a-gain back home in Innisfree

| G+G | C majorC | C majorC | G+G |


Verse 3:

  G+G                  C majorC   | A minorAm |
3. I wander o'er green hills through dreamy valleys
        D MajorD     D7D7         G+G
And find a peace no other land would know
      G+G             C majorC   | A minorAm |
I hear the birds make mu-sic fit for an-gels
        D MajorD     D7D7         G+G
And watch the rivers laughing as they flow


Verse 4:

  G+G                 C majorC   | A minorAm |
4. And then in-to a humble shack I wander
        D MajorD     D7D7         G+G
My dear old home and tenderly behold
  G+G                  C majorC   | A minorAm |
The folks I love a-round the turf fire gathered
        D MajorD     D7D7         G+G  | G7G7 |
On bend-ed knee their Rosary is told
         C majorC             G+G
But dreams don't last though dreams are not forgotten
       A augmentedA         D MajorD | D7D7 |
And soon I'm back to stern reality
         G+G               C majorC   | A minorAm |
But though they pave the foot-paths here with gold dust
        D MajorD     D7D7         G+G
