Danny Boy
Oh, Danny C boy, the C7 pipes, the pipes are F calling Dm
from G7 glen to C glen, and Am down the mountain Dm side G7
The summer’s C gone, and C7 all the roses F falling
‘tis you, ‘tis C you must Dm go and G7 I must C bide.
C But Cdim come G7 ye C back when Em summer’s in the C meadow,
C or Cdim when G7 the Am valley’s F hushed and Em white with Dm snow. G7
‘Tis I’ll be C7 here in F sunshine or in C sha- Am dow
Oh Fm Danny Boy, oh Am Danny Dm7 Boy, I G7 love you C so
1. Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer’s gone, and all the roses falling
‘Tis you, ‘tis you must go and I must bide.
But come ye back when summer’s in the meadow
Or when the valley’s hushed and white with snow
‘Tis I’ll be here in sunshine or in shadow
Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so
2. And when you come, and all the flowers are dying
If I am dead, as dead I well may 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 will warmer, sweeter be
For you will bend and to tell me that you love me
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
