INTRO: [A#] [F] [C] [F]

VERSE 1:
As we [F] gather in the chapel here, in [A#] Old Kilmainham [C] Jail
I [A#] think about these [F] past few days, oh [Gm] will they say we've [C] failed
From our [F] schooldays they have told us, we must [A#] yearn for liber-[C]-ty
Yet [A#] all I want in [F] this dark place, is to [C] have you here with [F] me

CHORUS 1:
Oh [C] Grace just hold me in your arms, and [A#] let this moment [F] linger
They [A#] take me out at [F] dawn, and I will [C] die
With [C] all my love I place this wedding [A#] ring, upon your [F] finger
There [A#] won't be time to [F] share our love, for [C] we must say good-[F]-bye

VERSE 3:
Now I [F] know it's hard for you my love, to [A#] ever under-[C]-stand
[A#] the love I bear for [F] these brave men, [Gm] my love for this dear [C] land
But when [F] Padhraic called me to his side, [A#] down in the G.P.-[C]-O.
[A#] I had to leave my [F] own sick bed, [C] to him I had to [F] go

VERSE 5:
Now [G] as the dawn is breaking my [C] heart is breaking [D] too
On [C] this May morn as [G] I walk out [Am] my thoughts will be of [D] you
And I'll [G] write some words upon the wall so [C] everyone will [D] know
[C] I love so much that [G] I could see [D] his blood upon the [G] rose

CHORUS 2:
Oh [D] Grace just hold me in your arms and [C] let this moment [G] linger
they [C] take me out at [G] dawn and I will [D] die
With [D] all my love I place this wedding [C] ring upon your [G] finger
There [C] won't be time to [G] share our love for [D] we must say good-[G]-bye
