[Verse 1]
G C D7 G When all beside a vigil keep the West's asleep, the West's asleep G Am D7 G Alas and well may Erin weep When Connacht lies in slumber deep G C There lake and plain smile fair and free, Am D7 G mid rocks their guardian chivalry; Sinig oh! G7 Em D7 C D G Let man learn liberty, from crashing winds and lashing sea
[Verse 2]
G C D7 G That chainless wave and lovely land Freedom and Nationhood demand G Am D7 G Be sure the great God never planned, for slumbering slaves a home so grand G C And long a brave and haughty race Am D7 G honored and sen-ti-nelled the place. Sing oh! G7 Em D7 C D G Not even their son's disgrace can quite destroy their glory's trace
[Instrumental Verse]
[Verse 2]
G C D7 G And if when all a vigil's keep the West's asleep! The West's asleep! G Am D7 G Alas and well may Erin weep, that Connacht lies in slumber deep G C But hark a voice like thunder spake: Am D7 G The Wests's awake! The West's awake! Sing Oh! G7 Em D7 C D G Hurrah let England Quake! We'll fight till death for Turtle Island's sake.
