A LAMENT
3 3 3 3 4 -4 5
By a lonely prison wall
5 -5 -5 -5 6 5 -5 5 4 -4
I heard a young girl ca-a-a-a-all
6 6 6 5 -5 6 -5 5 -4
Michael, they have taken you away
5 -5 6 6 6 5 -5
For you stole Trevelyns corn
6 -5 5 4 4 5 -4
So our young might see the morn
3 3 -4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 4 -3 4
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay
CHORUS
6 -6 6 4 3 4 -4 5
Low lie the fields of Athenry
-4 4 3 4 -4 5 -5 6 -4
Where once we watched the small free birds fly
5 -5 6 6 6 5 -5
Our love was on the wing
6 -5 5 4 4 5 -4
We had dreams and songs to sing
3 3 -4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 4 -3 4
Its so lonely round the fields of Athenry
By lonely prison wall
I heard a young man ca-a-a-a-all
Nothing matters Mary when your free
Against the famine and the Crown
I rebelled they cut me down
Now you must raise our child with dignity
CHORUS
By a lonely harbour wall
She watched the last star fa-a -a -a-all
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
For she lived to hope and pray
For her love in Botany Bay
Its so lonely round the fields of Athenry
CHORUS TO END
