E7          A                            D
Oh, Danny boy, the pipes the pipes are calling,
      A                                E7
from glen to glen and down the mountainside.
              A                       D
The summer's gone and all the roses falling
      A                 E7             A
'tis you 'tis you, must go and I must bide.

            F#m         E7             A
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow,
             F#m       E7                   Bm E7
or when the valley's hushed and white with snow.
               A        D              A   F#m
'Tis, I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow,
           A               E7           A   E7
oh, Danny boy, oh, Danny boy I love you so.



E7          A                              D
And if you come when all the flowers are dying
          A                       E7
and I am dead, as dead I well may be,
                 A                         D
you'll come and find the place where I am lying
               A      E7            A
and kneel and say an Ave there for me.

            F#m           E7              A
And I shall hear, though soft you tread above me
            F#m         E7              Bm E7
and all my dreams will warm and sweeter be,
  [rall.]     A        D                A     F#m
for you will bend and tell me that you love me
              A              E7              A 
and I shall sleep in peace until you come to me.
