Follow Me Up To Carlow

Am            Em
Lift MacCahir Og your face
Am                Cmaj7
Broodin' o'er the old disgrace
     Am                Em
That black FitzWilliam stormed your place
    Am        Cmaj7  Am
And drove you to the Fern
Am           Em
Grey said victory was sure
Am                 C
Soon the firebrand he'd secure;
Am              Em
Until he met at Glenmalure
     Am       Cmaj7  Am
With Fiach MacHugh O'Byrne

Em
Curse and swear Lord Kildare
Cmaj7
Fiach will do what Fiach will dare
Em
Now FitzWilliam, have a care
Cmaj7          Am
Fallen is your star, low
Em
Up with halberd out with sword
Cmaj7
On we'll go for by the Lord
Em
Fiach MacHugh has given the word
Cmaj7           D
Follow me up to Carlow

Am                Em
See the swords of Glen Imayle
        Am                    Cmaj7
They're flashing all o'er the English pale
    Am               Em
See all the children of the Gael
  Am      Cmaj7   Am
Beneath O'Byrne's banners
Am             Em
Rooster of the fighting stock
Am              C
Would you let a Saxon cock
Am               Em
Crow out upon an Irish rock?
Am         Cmaj7     Am
Fly up and teach him manners

Em
Curse and swear Lord Kildare
Cmaj7
Fiach will do what Fiach will dare
Em
Now FitzWilliam, have a care
Cmaj7          Am
Fallen is your star, low
Em
Up with halberd out with sword
Cmaj7
On we'll go for by the Lord
Em
Fiach MacHugh has given the word
Cmaj7           D
Follow me up to Carlow

Am             Em
From Tassagart to Clonmore
      Am                Cmaj7
There flows a stream of Saxon gore
    Am            Em
Oh, great is Rory Oge O'More
   Am          Cmaj7    Am
At sending the loons to Hades
Am             Em
White is sick, Grey is fled
Am                Cmaj7
Now for black FitzWilliam's head
      Am            Em
We'll send it over, dripping red
         Am   Cmaj7   Am
To Queen Liza and her ladies
