Fields Of Athenry  Dubliners



[G]By the lonely prison wall, I [C]heard a young girl [G]cal-[D]ling
[G]Micheal they have [C]taken you [D]away
[G]For you stole Trevelins [C]corn so the [G]young might see the [D]morn
[D]Now a prison ship lies waiting in the [G]bay.
Chorus
[G]Low [C]Lie [G]The fields of [Em]Athenry
[G]Where once we watched the small fre[D]e birds fly
[G]Our love was on the [C]wing
[G]We had dreams and songs to [D]sing
[D]It's so lonely  round the [Dsus]fields of [G]Athenry.


Verse 2
[G]By the lonely prison wall, I [C]heard a young man [G]cal-[D]ling
[G]Nothing matters [C]Mary when your [D]free
[G]Against the famine and the [C]Crown, I [G]Rebelled they cut me [D]down
[D]Now you must  raise our child with [G]dignity.

Chorus
Verse 3
[G]By the lonely harbor wall, [C]she watched the last star [G]fal-[D]ling
[G]As the prison ship [C]sailed out against the [D]sky
[G]Where she lived to hope and [C]pray [G]for her love in [D]Botany bay
It's so lonely round the fields of [G]Athenry.
Chorus X2.

Hi. I added a C and D chord to the last line of the verse, and a C chord to the last line of the chorus. I also changed "Micheal" to Michael, and "your" to you're. Otherwise it's a beautiful song as it stands.

PS. If anyone had a problim playing the
[Dsus] chord, xx0233, you are playing
[D] xxo232, just drop your little finger
on to the 3rd fret 1st string, don't try and change the whole shape.
Hope this helps.

The chord you showed was a [D7] xx0212,
the [Dsus] chord is xxo233, I changed it
to the proper [Dsus] chord, you can change it back, as both chords work ok.
I also changed some of the words and replaced some of the full stops.
Otherwise good effort.
