	C	G
Tell me	why must a man be of	service

	C	G
To his	lord and the god seldom	high

	C	G
From the	grave spring the name of our	fathers

	C	Am	D
But there's no	glint in a	dead man's	eye

	C	G
Tell me	why are our fields filled with	hunger

	C	G
And f	ruitless the crop bitter	soil

	C	G
So I	say my farewell to a	nation

	C	Am	D
As the	leaf waves	goodbye to it's	son

Chorus

	C	G
So it's to	youth I sing you this	story

	C	G
And it's of	youth I sing it	now

	C	G
Like the	train that derails without	warning

	Am	D
I must	leave what I left far be	hind

	C	D
So good	bye, sweet Roisi	n Dubh

	G	C	G	C	G	C	G
I say	goo	dby	e

Verse 2:

	C	G
Tell me	why must our peace be this	puzzle

	C	G
That	fractures the land, splinters	war

	C	G
The last	nails cite the shame in our	coffin

	C	Am	D
But in the	end we must	all die	alone

Chorus

	C	G
So it's to	youth I sing you this	story

	C	G
And it's of	youth I sing it	now

I must	leave what I left far be	hind

	C	D
So good	bye, sweet Roisi	n Dubh

	G	C	G	C	G	C	G
I say	goo	dby	e

Bridge:

	D
And the	bark fell from tree

	C	G
To the	ground that they'll	bleed

	D	G
On the	anguish that never learned to	shout

	D
With the	clash of the drum

	C	G
We'll	surrender the	gun

	D	G
and on this	sadness we shall no longer	speak

	C	G
Until	time can live on our a	ll forgotten songs

	C	D
That's when	I and we will sing a	gain

	G	C	D	G
So goo	dbye to my	love, my	sweet Roisin	Dubh

	G	C	G	C	D	G	G	C	G
Goo	dbye now un	til we meet a	gai	n

	C	G
Tell me	why must our grief still be	greiving

	C	G
For a	language that never spoke it's	loss

	C	G
But this	tongue speak with fire will tear	down the barb wire

N.C.

And Rip the belly from the waxy ghost

Chorus

	C	G
So it's to	youth I sing you this	story

	C	G
And it's of	youth I sing it	now

	C	G
Like the	train that derails without	warning

	Am	D
I must	leave what I left far be	hind

	C	G
So it's to	youth I sing you this	story

	C	G
And it's of	youth I sing it	now

	C	G
Like the	train that derails without	warning

	Am	D
I must	leave what I left far be	hind

	C	D
So good	bye, sweet Roisi	n Dubh

	G	C	G	C
I say	goo	dby	e

	C	D
So goo	dbye, sweet Roisi	n Dubh

The	youth you	once po	ssessed
