DmListen now boys, my A#grandmother Fsaid -
I'll Gmtell you a sDmtory and Cthen off to Dmbed.
There Dmonce was a time, we A#lived of the Fland,
GmHarvest would Dmcome, and we Call lent a Dmhand. C[riAmff rDmepeaDmted CtwiAmce] Dm  


But Dmwinds blew our lives, and A#scattered our Fseeds.
GmChanging the Dmlandscape, from Cflowers to Dmweeds.
DmSee in the graveyard the A#families Fgone.
The Gmgrandest of Dmtombstones Ccarry them Dmon...


When you A#sail Ffrom the Am7Harbour,
It's your A#last Feyes of DmIreland. C[riAmff rDmepeaDmted CtwiAmce] Dm  


We tended the fire, and faeries appeased
the flames never died until we had to leave.
And when we were gone, the house tumbled down
and covered our footprints, we'd left on the ground.


When you sail from the Harbour,
It's your last eyes of Ireland.


[short guitar solo in the following chord sequence:
 CanDmd tA#henC bDmackA# toAm intro riff]

My eyes are now tired and no longer see.
But visions of Ireland linger in me.
So carry your past in the rooms of your heart
and you'll never be empty of love when you part...


When you sail from the Harbour,
It's your last eyes of Ireland.

[riff repeated 4 times]
