Highland Paddy

            D
One evening fair,as the sun was shining,
                              G          D
Through Kilkenny I did ride, I did meet Captain Brady,
  A
A tall Comander by his side

             D
Then you are well come Highland Paddy,
                               G               D
By my side you'll surly stand, hear the people shout for freedom,
      A
We'll rise in the morning with the Fenian band
Rise in the morning with the Fenian band.

       D
In the morning we rose early,just before the break of dawn,
 G                        D       A
Blackbirds singing in the bushes, greetings to the smiling morn.
       D
Gather round free men of Ireland, gather Fenians gather round,
 G                          D        A
Hand to hand with sword and musket, spill their blood upon this holy ground.

             D
Then you are well come Highland Paddy,
                               G               D
By my side you'll surly stand, hear the people shout for freedom,
      A
We'll rise in the morning with the Fenian band,
Rise in the morning with the Fenian band.

          D
There's a grave beside the river,a mile outside Kilkenny town,
 G                       D        A
There we laid our noble captain, birds were silent when this fenian died.
       D
All my life I will remember, I'll remember night and day,
 G                  D      A
Once I rode into Kilkenny, and I heard this noble captain say

             D
Then you are well come Highland Paddy,
                               G               D
By my side you'll surly stand, hear the people shout for freedom,
      A
We'll rise in the morning with the Fenian band,
Rise in the morning with the Fenian band,
                                    D
Rise in the morning with the Fenian band.
