The Dubliners – The Night Visiting Song (Guitar)

         G        C    G                D G
1. I must away now; I can no longer tarry,

                    C    G                D
    this morning's tempest, I have to cross.

            G         G7               C    G
    I must be guided        without a stumble,

             C G    D        G
    into the arms I love the most.

          G        C  G                   D G
2. And when he came to his true love's dwelling,

                  C   G          D
    he knelt down gently, upon a stone.

                      G         G7               C  G
    And through her window,      he's whispered lowly,

            C   G       D      G
    is my true love within at home?

       G            C    G                      D G
3. Wake up, wake up, love, it is thine own true lover,

                   C    G             D
    wake up, wake up, love, and let me in

               G            G7           C   G
    For I am tired, love,        and oh so weary,

               C G       D           G
    and more than near drenched to the skin.

            G       C G                D G
4. She's raised her u..p her down soft pillow,

                      C G                    D
    she's raised her u...p and she's let him in.

                    G       G7                  C  G
    And they were locked in         eachother's arms,

                C     G        D         G
    until that long night was past and gone.

    G             C     G                   D G
5. And when that long night was past and over,

                   C     G               D
    and when the small clouds began to grow,

                  G              G7               C   G
    he's taken her hand and        hey kissed and parted,

                        C   G        D        G
    then he saddled and mounted and away did go.
