The Wind That Shakes The Barley

Cm I sat within a valley green Gm Cm I sat me with my true love Cm Gm My sad heart strove the two between Ab Gm Cm The old love and the new love, - Cm The old for her, the new that made Eb Gm Cm Me think of Ireland dearly Cm Eb Gm While soft the wind blew down the glade Cm/G Gm Cm And shook the golden barley Cm While sad I kissed away her tears Gm Cm My fond arms 'round her flinging Cm Gm The foeman's shot burst on our ears Ab Gm Cm From out the wildwood ringing, - Cm A bullet pierced my true love's side Eb Gm Cm In life's young spring so early Cm Eb Gm And on my breast in blood she died Cm/G Gm Cm While soft winds shook the barley! Cm But blood for blood without remorse Gm Cm I've ta'en at Oulart Hollow Cm Gm And placed my true love's clay-cold corpse Ab Gm Cm Where I full soon will follow; Cm And round her grave I wander drear Eb Gm Cm Noon, night and morning early Cm Eb Gm With breaking heart whene'er I hear Cm/G Gm Cm The wind that shakes the barley! Cm/G Gm Cm The wind that shakes the barley!
