THE FIELDS OF ATHENRY  Irish Rovers



[G]By a lonely prison wall i [C]heard a young girl [G-D]calling
[G]Micheal they are [C]takeing you [D]away
[G]For you stole trevelyens [C]corn so the [G]young mite mo[D]rn
[D]Now you must raise our child with dign[G]ity.
CHORUS
[G]Low [C]lie the [G]fields of [Em]athenry where[G] once we watched the small free birds f[D]ly
[G]Our love was on the [C]wing we had d[G]reams and songs to si[D]ng
[D]Its so lonely round the fields of athe[G]nry
By a lonely prison wall i heard a young maN calling
Nothing matters mary when your free
I rebelled againts the crown
I ran they ran me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity.
CHORUS
Thats it there is one more verse but i avnt remember all the words av fun.
******The tab as far as I can tell is here are all the verses:
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling
"Michael, they have taken you away,
For you stole Trevelyan's corn,
So the young might see the morn.
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay."
Chorus:
Low lie the fields of Athenry
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
Our love was on the wing
We had dreams and songs to sing
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.
By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling
"Nothing matters, Mary, when you're free
Against the famine and the crown,
I rebelled, they cut me down.
Now you must raise our child with dignity."
By a lonely harbor wall, she watched the last star fall
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she lived to hope and pray for her love in Botany Bay
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.
