Ireland Garth Brooks
CAPO 1
Intro is cold open with one strum on G
[Intro]
[G]
[Verse 1]
(Just one strum per cord)
They say mother earth is [G]breathing
With each wave that finds the s[G]hore
Her soul rises in the [G]evening
For to open twilights [G]door
Her eyes a[Em]re the stars in [G]heaven
Watching o'er us all the [C]while
And her heart it is in [G]Ireland[D]
Deep within the Emerald [G]Isle
[Verse 2]
(Begin Struming)
We are forty against [G]hundreds
In someone else's bloody [G]war
We know not why were [G]fighting
Or what we're dying [G]for
They will s[Em]torm us in the [G]morning
When the sunlight turns to [C]sky
Death is waiting for it's [G]dance now[D]
Fate has sentenced us to [G]die
[Cborus]
[Em]Ireland [C]I am coming [G]home
I can [C]see your rolling f[G]ields of green
And [Em]fences made of s[D]tone
I am r[Em]eaching [G]out won't you [C]take my [G]hand
I'm coming [Em]home [C]I-re-[G]land
[Verse 3]
Oh the captain he lay [G]bleeding
I can hear him calling [G]me
These men are yours now for the l[G]eading
Show them to their dest[G]iny
As I l[Em]ook up all ar[G]ound me
I see the ragged tired and [C]torn
I tell them to make [G]ready[D]
'Cause we're not waiting for the [G]morn
[Cborus]
[Em]Ireland [C]I am coming [G]home
I can [C]see your rolling f[G]ields of green
And [Em]fences made of s[D]tone
I am r[Em]eaching [G]out won't you [C]take my [G]hand
I'm coming [Em]home [C]I-re-[G]land
[Verse 4]
(palm mute)
Now the fog is deep and [G]heavy
As we forge the dark and [G]fear
We can hear their horses [G]breathing
As in silence we draw [G]near
There are [Em]no words to be [G]spoken
Just a look to say [C]good-bye
I draw a breath and night is [G]broken[D]
As I scream our battle [G]cry
[Cborus]
[Em]Ireland [C]I am coming [G]home
I can [C]see your rolling f[G]ields of green
And [Em]fences made of s[D]tone
I am r[Em]eaching [G]out won't you [C]take my [G]hand
I'm coming [Em]home [C]I-re-[G]land
[Outro]
G, G, G
We were forty against [G]hundreds[(FADE)]
