. Am G
As down the glen one Easter morn
C G Am
To a city fair rode I
Am G
There armed lines of marching men
C G Am
In squadrons passed me by
C
No pipes did hum
G Am Em Am
No battle drum did sound its loud tattoo
Am G
But the Angelus Bells o'er the Liffey swells
C F Am
Rang out in the foggy dew
Am G
Right proudly high in Dublin town
C G Am
Hung they out a flag of war
Am G
'Twas better to die 'neath that Irish sky
C G Am
Than at Sulva or Sud-El-Bar
C G Am
And from the plains of Royal Meath
Em Am
Strong men came hurrying through
Am G
While Brittania's Huns with their long range guns
C F Am
Sailed in through the foggy dew
Am G
Their bravest fell and the requiem bell
C G Am
Rang mournfully and clear
Am G
For those who died that Eastertide in the
C G Am
Springing of the year
C G Am
While the world did gaze with deep amaze
Em Am
At those fearless men but few
Am G
Who bore the fight that freedom's light
C G Am
Might shine through the foggy dew
Am G
And back through the glen, I rode again
C G Am
And my heart with grief was sore
Am G
For I parted then with valiant men
C G Am
Whom I never shall see more
C G Am
But to and fro in my dreams I go
Em Am
And I kneel and pray for you
Am G
For slavery fled, O glorious dead
C G Am
When you fell in the foggy dew
