-4   5  -5  6   -5    6    
Oh, Dan-ny boy, the pipes, 
-7    7    6  -5 5 -3
the pipes are call-ing 
 5    6   -6  7   -7   7    6   5    6    -5
from glen to glen and down the moun-tain-side. 
-4   5   -5    6    -5   6  -7   7  6  -5 5 -3
The sum-mer's gone, and all the ros-es fall-ing, 
 -4   5    -5   6   -6  6  -5  5  -5   5
‘Tis you, ‘tis you must go and I must bide.  

 7   -7  -8  8    8   -8   -7   7   6  7 6  5
But come ye back when sum-mer's in the mea-dow, 
7   -7  -8   8   -8     -8   -7    7    6    -5
Or when the val-ley's hushed and white with snow.
  7   7   7   10   -9 -9    8   -7 8  7 6  5
‘Tis I'll be there in sun-shine or in sha-dow. 
-4  5  -5  6   -7  7  6  -5   4  -3  -4  4
Oh Dan-ny boy, oh Dan-ny boy, I love you so.
