  			      C                                          F                           G
    The winter it has passed and the summer's come at last,
                  G7                  C                     G
    and the birds they are singing in the trees.
                    G                        C           F                  G
    And their little hearts are glad, but mine is very sad,
                 C               F                     G
    for my true love is far away from me.

            C                                         F                        G
    The rose upon the briar by the water's running clear
             G7            C                     G
    gives joy to the linnet and the bee.
              G                        C                 F                       G
    Their little hearts are blessed, but mine, it’s not addressed,
                 C               F                  G
    for my true love is absent from me.

                G7                  C               F                   G
And it’s straight I will repair to the Curragh of Kildare,
              C               F                    G
for it's there I'll find tidings of my dear.

           C                                   F                 G
    All you that are in love and cannot it remove,
      G7           C                       G
    I pity the pains that you endure.
                G                           C                     F                        G
    For experience lets me know that your hearts are full of woe,
                C                  F                   G
    and a woe that no mortal can endure.

                G7                  C               F                   G
And it’s straight I will repair to the Curragh of Kildare,
              C               F                    G
for it's there I'll find tidings of my dear.

                G7                  C               F                   G
And it’s straight I will repair to the Curragh of Kildare,
              C               F                    G
for it's there I'll find tidings of my dear.
