The Willows - Maid of Culmore


CAPO: 2nd Fret


INTRO: A minorAm G+G C/GC/G FF

    A minorAm      G+G     C/GC/G     FF
Leaving sweet lovely Derry for fair London town
     C/GC/G G+G A minorAm FF G+G     A minorAm      E minorEm
There is no finer harbour all around can be found
     C/GC/G G+G   A minorAm  FF G+G    A minorAm     E minorEm
Where the youngsters each evening go down to the shore
    A minorAm      G+G        C/GC/G    FF
And the joy bells are ringing for the maid of Culmore

  A minorAm      G+G      C/GC/G    FF
The first time I saw her, she passed me by
    C/GC/G G+G  A minorAm FF G+G    A minorAm     E minorEm
And the next time I saw her, she bid me goodbye
    C/GC/G G+G  A minorAm FF G+G    A minorAm        E minorEm
And the last time I saw her, it grieved my heart sore
    A minorAm      G+G     C/GC/G     FF
For she sailed out of Ireland, away from Culmore


  A minorAm    G+G     C/GC/G      FF
If I had the power the storms for to rise
    C/GC/G G+G  A minorAm  FF  G+G      A minorAm     E minorEm
I would make the wind blow out and I'd darken the skies
  C/GC/G G+G  A minorAm  FF  G+G      A minorAm      E minorEm
I'd make the wind blow high and the salt seas to roar
     A minorAm     G+G        C/GC/G     FF
'Til the day that my darling sailed away from Culmore


INSTRUMENTAL: A minorAm  G+G  C/GC/G FF  C/GC/G G+G A minorAm FF G+G  A minorAm  E minorEm  A minorAm  G+G  C/GC/G FF


    A minorAm      G+G     C/GC/G     FF
To the far parts of America, my love I'll go seek
     C/GC/G  G+G A minorAm  FF G+G    A minorAm      E minorEm
For it's there I know no one and no one knows me
  C/GC/G G+G A minorAm  FF  G+G      A minorAm      E minorEm
But if I don't find her, I'll return home no more
     A minorAm    G+G       C/GC/G    FF
Like a pilgrim I'll wander for the maid of Culmore
    A minorAm      G+G       C/GC/G    FF
