Misc Traditional – Green Glens Of Antrim (Guitar)

     D            D7          G          D
Far across yonder blue lies a true fairy land

                      Bm       E           A
With the sea rippling over the shingle and sand

          D         D7       G          D
Where the gay honeysuckle is luring the bee

                       Bm         A          D
And the green glens of Antrim are calling to me.

        G                     D           Bm
Sure if only you knew how the lamp of the moon

        D          Bm       E      A
Turns a blue Irish bay to a silver lagoon

      D         D7         G               D
You'd imagine a picture of heaven it would be

                         Bm         A          D
Where the green glens of Antrim are calling to me.

       D       D7           G         D
Soon I hope to return to my own Cushendall

                       Bm          E             A
T'is the one place for me That can outshine them all

       D          D7         G            D
Sure I know every stone I'll recall every tree

                         Bm         A          D
Where the green glens of Antrim are calling to me

        D         D7          G           D
I would halt at a cabin close down by the shore

                      Bm            E         A
And I'd knock with my heart at that wee cabin door

          D            D7          G          D
While the sun showered gold in the lap of the sea

                       Bm          A          D
And the green glens of Antrim were smiling at me

        G                     D           Bm
Sure if only you knew how the lamp of the moon

        D          Bm       E      A
Turns a blue Irish bay to a silver lagoon

      D         D7         G               D
You'd imagine a picture of heaven it would be

                         Bm         A          D
Where the green glens of Antrim are calling to me.

        D            D7         G             D
Now I'd be where the people are simple and so kind

                   Bm          E          A
And among them the one who has been on my mind

       D             D7             G            D
Sure I pray that the world would in peace let me be

                         Bm         A         D
Where the green glens of Antrim are heaven to me

        G                     D           Bm
Sure if only you knew how the lamp of the moon

        D          Bm       E      A
Turns a blue Irish bay to a silver lagoon

      D         D7         G               D
You'd imagine a picture of heaven it would be

                         Bm         A          D
Where the green glens of Antrim are calling to me.
