Danny Boy

Traditional

[Verse 1]

         C Cmaj7     C7                   F        Fm         

Oh Danny boy,    the pipes, the pipes are calling

             C         Am               D7   G  

From glen to glen and down the mountain side

             C Cmaj7  C7            F     Fm

The summer's gone and all the roses falling

               C   Am      Dm     G      C

'Tis you, 'tis you    must go and I must bide



[Chorus]

G   Am   G/B  C         F               C

But come ye   back when summer's in the meadow

G  Am   G/B  Am      F          C          D7   G

Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow

            C C/E   F        D/F#   C  Em/B Am Am7/G Fm

And I'll be here in sunshine or in sha-     dow

         C       Am    Dm    G        C      G7/B

Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so



[Verse 2]

          C Cmaj7  C7            F     Fm

But if he come and all the roses dying

         C G/B    Am     Am/G     D/F#    G

And I am dead, as dead I well may be

                C Cmaj7  C7               F     Fm

You'll come and find the place where I am lying

              C  Am    F   G         C

And kneel and say   an Ave there for me



[Chorus]

G  Am G/B   C            F               C

And I shall feel, though soft you tread above me

G   Am   G/B Am Am/G   F       C/E       D/F#   G 

And then my grave will richer, sweeter be

G   Am7 G/B  C    C/E F       D/F#     C   Em/B  Am  Am7/G  Ab7

For you will bend and tell me that you lo- ve    me

            C       Am      Dm      G       C   G7

And I shall rest in peace until you come to me

            C       Am7     Dm7     G11     C/G

And I shall rest in peace until you come to me
