Traditional Irish - Grace Ukulele

      F                            F              G
As we gather in the chapel here in old Kilmainham jail
  F                    F            Dm               G
I think about the last few weeks Oh will they say we failed
         F                                     F             G
    F             F                     G                  F
Yet all I want in this dark place is to have you here with me.

[Chorus]
   G                                   F               F
Oh Grace just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger
     F              F               G
They take me out at dawn and I will die
                                      F              F
With all my love I place this wedding ring upon your finger
      F               F                 G               F
There wont be time to share our love so we must say goodbye.

      F                                 F         G
Now I know it's hard for you my love to ever understand
    F               F                  Dm                  G
The love I bear for these brave men my love for this brave land
         F                                  F         G
But when Padraic called me to his side down in the G.P.O.
  F               F               G            F
I had to leave my own sick bed to him I had to go.

     

[Chorus] 
    
  G                                   F               F
Oh Grace just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger
     F              F               G
They take me out at dawn and I will die
                                      F              F
With all my love I place this wedding ring upon your finger
      F               F                 G              F
There wont be time to share our love so we must say goodbye.

    F                          F                 G
Now as the dawn is breaking my heart is breaking to
   F             F                Dm                  G
As I walk out on this May morn my thoughts will be of you
         F                                 F             G
And I'll write some words upon the wall so everyone will know
  F                    F             G              F
I loved so much that I could see his blood upon the rose

 [Chorus]
   G                                   F               F
Oh Grace just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger
     F              F               G
They take me out at dawn and I will die
                                      F              F
With all my love I place this wedding ring upon your finger
      F               F                 G              F
There wont be time to share our love so we must say goodbye
