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 dying
C Am Dm G C
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide
G Am G/B C F C
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
G Am G/B Am F C D G
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
C C/E F C Em/B Am Fm
And I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
C Dm G C
Oh Danny boy, oh Danny boy I love you so
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
G Am G/B C F C
And I shall feel, though soft you tread above me
G Am B/G Am Am/G F C/E D/F# G
And then my grave will richer, sweeter be
C C/E F C Em/B Am G#
For you will bend and tell me that you love me
C Am Dm G C
And I shall rest in peace until you come to me
C Am F G C
(Oh Danny boy I love) you so
