The Foggy Dew Tabulatur von Traditional Irish

.  Am                G                        
As down the glen one Easter morn
     C    G        Am
To a city fair rode I
      Am             G
There armed lines of marching men
   C         G         Am
In squadrons passed me by
   C             
No pipes did hum
   G      Am                 Em      Am
No battle drum did sound its loud tattoo
    Am                         G
But the Angelus Bells o'er the Liffey swells
     C          F     Am
Rang out in the foggy dew


      Am              G 
Right proudly high in Dublin town
          C     G       Am
Hung they out a flag of war
      Am                        G
'Twas better to die 'neath that Irish sky
        C        G      Am
Than at Sulva or Sud-El-Bar
    C                  G     Am
And from the plains of Royal Meath
                Em       Am
Strong men came hurrying through
      Am                           G
While Brittania's Huns with their long range guns
       C              F     Am
Sailed in through the foggy dew


      Am                   G 
Their bravest fell and the requiem bell
     C       G      Am
Rang mournfully and clear
    Am                  G
For those who died that Eastertide in the
C         G      Am
Springing of the year
      C                       G    Am
While the world did gaze with deep amaze
                  Em      Am
At those fearless men but few
    Am                  G
Who bore the fight that freedom's light
      C                 G     Am
Might shine through the foggy dew


    Am                       G
And back through the glen, I rode again
       C          G         Am
And my heart with grief was sore
      Am               G
For I parted then with valiant men
     C       G         Am 
Whom I never shall see more
    C                G        Am
But to and fro in my dreams I go
                Em       Am
And I kneel and pray for you
    Am              G
For slavery fled, O glorious dead
         C           G     Am
When you fell in the foggy dew
