Intro: Asus2Asus2
B5B5
How can the small flowers grow,
A/BA/B
If the wild winds blow,
BB
And the cold snow is all around?
B5B5
And where will the frail birds fly,
A/BA/B
If their homes on high,
BB
Have been torn down to the ground?
E/G#
Lift the wings,
A/BA/B
And carry me away from here and,
E/G#
Fill the sail,
BB
That breaks the line to home.
E/G#
BB
But when I'm miles and miles away from you,
E/B
I'm beside you, when I think of you,
E MajorE F#m11F#m11
a Stóirín, a Ghrà.
B5B5
How can a tree stand tall,
A augmentedA
If a rain won't fall,
E5add9 D6D6 E5add4
To wash its branches down?
B5B5
And how can a heart survive,
A augmentedA
Can it stay alive,
E5add9 B/D#B/D#
If its love's denied for long?
E/G#
Lift the wings,
E MajorE
That carry me away from here and,
E/G#
Fill the sail,
BB
That breaks the line to home.
E/G#
But when I'm miles and miles
BB
apart from you,
E/B
I'm beside you, when I think of you,
A/BA/B
a Stóirín,
E/B
And I'm with you as I dream of you,
A/BA/B
a Stóirín,
E/B
And this song will bring me near to you,
E MajorE
