this is my first tab and i’m positive that these are the correct chords . this is A
very easy song to play and i play it all the time . enjoy : )
verse 1 :
Am G Am
last night as i lay dreaming , of pleasant days gone by ,
C G
me mind being bent on rambling , to ireland i did fly ,
Am C G
i stepped on board a vision , and followed with a will ,
Am G Am
till the first i came to anchor at the cross at spancil hill ,
verse 2 :
Am G Am
twas on the 23rd of june , the day before the fair
C G
when irelands sons and daughters and friends assembled there
Am C G
the young , the old the brave the bold , their duty to fulfil
Am G Am
at the parish church near clooney , a mile from spancil hill
( the rest of the song has the same chords – Am G Am C G Am C G Am G Am in each verse )
verse 3 :
i went to see me neighbours to see what they might say
the old ones were all dead and gone , they young ones turning grey
i met with tailor quigley , he’s as bold as ever still
sure he used to make me britches when i lived in spancil hill
verse 4 :
i paid a flying visit to my first and only love
she’s as fair as any lily and as gentle as a dove
she through her arms around me , saying johnny i love ye still
she was meg the farmers daughter and the pride of spancil hill
