***DANNY BOY - Traditional, arranged by Shane MacGowan
from the EP "Christmas Party"

		 C majorC			FF
Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
           C majorC        G+G
>From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
		 C majorC			FF
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling
		 C majorC		   G+G    C majorC
'Tis you must go, 'tis you must go and I must bide

    C majorC       FF        C majorC
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
	   A minorAm	    FF	  G+G
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
      C majorC       FF     C majorC   A minorAm
'Tis I'll be there in sunshine or in shadow
       C majorC       G+G     C majorC
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy, I love you so

But if you come, and all the flowers are dying
If I am dead, as dead I may well be
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
And kneel and say an "Ave" there for me

And I shall hear, tho' soft you tread above me
And all my grave shall warm and sweeter be
If you will bend and tell me that you love me
Then I will sleep in peace until you come to me
