         Em             B7           Em       Cmaj7  B7       Em    B7
Have you ever heard the story of how Ireland         got it's name?
     Em                 Cmaj7           Em          B7     Em
I'll tell you so you'll understand from whence old Ireland came
   Em                Am       B7        Em               B7
No wonder that we're proud of that dear land across the sea
    Em                Cmaj7           Em       Am      Em
For here's the way me dear old mother told the tale to me
 
 
G13   G7   C             Cmaj7  E7        F       A7      Dm    Dm/C
Sure, a    little bit of heaven fell from out the sky one day
    G7/B           G7      F/G       Cmaj7         Em
And nestled in the ocean        in a spot so far away
    Gdim7                             Dm        A7        Dm
And when the angels found it, sure it looked so sweet and fair
     B7              B7sus4   B7          Em      Am       Em
They said suppose we leave it,    for it looks so peaceful there
 
G13 G7   C                 Cmaj7     E7      F        A7        Dm    Dm/C
So  they sprinkled it with star dust just to make the shamrocks grow
         G7/B              G7        F/G    Cmaj7            Em
'Tis the only place you'll find them     no matter where you go
          C              C7         Dm7  A/C#  Dm7      F
Then they dotted it with silver, to make it's  lakes so grand
B7-9  C         Cdim7  C  F   Fdim7  Dm7   G    C     Am   G
And   when they had    it fin ished  sure they called it   Ire

       Em               B7             Em        Cmaj7   Em    B7
'Tis a dear old land of fairies and of wond'rous wishing wells
    Em              Cmaj7                  Em        B7        Em
And nowhere else on God's green earth have they such lakes and dells
     Em            Am     B7         Em                B7
No wonder that the angels loved it's shamrock bordered shore
       Em            Cmaj7         Em      Am       Em
'Tis a little bit of heaven, and I love it more and more
 
 
G13   G7   C             Cmaj7  E7        F       A7      Dm    Dm/C

And nestled in the ocean        in a spot so far away

And when the angels found it, sure it looked so sweet and fair

         G7                     G7-9        Cmaj7            Em
'Tis the only place you'll find them     no matter where you go
          C              C7         Dm7  A/C#  Dm7      F
Then they dotted it with silver, to make it's  lakes so grand
