My Irish Bonnie Lass

B         Dbm
You never saw me leave
E          B
Never heard
             A
I was too proud
                               Abm
to show you my tears I was seventeen

Dbm
The postcards were few
E                          B
I didn't have the words to tell you
A
I was doing well but it was hard
            B
Not having you
F#m
Someday you will
                B
understand my reason for leaving
F#m                        B
Someday you will be seventeen

        Dbm               E
And the road that I will go
              B            A
Through the streets of America
          Dbm              E
From its furthest northern shores
                  B
To its southern seas
       Dbm           E
And one day I'll return
      B                 A
To the green fields of Ireland
         Dbm
Where my Irish bonny lass
E              B
Who waits for me

       Dbm
I can picture now
      B
As the evening sun comes to praise you
    A                                    Ab
A golden hue of light reflects on your face
                  Dbm
How sweet is your smile
      B
I remember it well
            A
Though I'm here on foreign site
                      B
My thoughts are with you

        Dbm               E
And the road that I will go
              B            A
Through the streets of America
          Dbm              E
From its furthest northern shores
                  B
To its southern seas
       Dbm           E
And one day I'll return
      B                 A
To the green fields of Ireland
         Dbm
Where my Irish bonny lass
E              B
Who waits for me

            Dbm
Say you’ll wait for me
