[D]Come by the[G] hills to the[A] land where[G] fancy is [D]free
And[D] stand where the[G] peaks meet the[D] sky and the[G] lochs meet the[A] sea
Where the[D] rivers run clear and the[G] bracken is[D] gold in the[A] sun
Ah, the[D] cares of to-[G]morrow can[A] wait 'til[G] this day is[D] done

Oh, come by the hills to the land where life is a song
And sing while the birds fill the air with their joy all day long
Where the trees sway in time and even the wind sings in tune
Ah, the cares of to-morrow can wait 'til this day is done

Come by the hills to the land where legend re-mains
Where stories of old fill the heart and may yet come a-gain
Where our past has been lost and the future has still to be won
Ah, the cares of to-morrow can wait 'til this day is done

COME BY THE HILLS 3/4 in the key of C Major as preformed by Celtic Thunder

 

(The first verse is done in Irish.)

Buachaill ón Eirne mé's bhréagfainn féin cailín deas óg

Né iarfainn bó spré léithe tá mé saibhir go leor 'S liom

Corcaigh a mhéid e , dhá thaobh a ghleanna's Tír Eoghain

'S mur n-athraí mé béasaí 's mé n' t-oibhr ar Chontae

Mhaigh Eo

 

(Here is translation:

I am a boy from Ireland and I'd coax a nice young girl,

I wouldn't ask for a dowry with her, I'm rich enough myself,

I own Cork, big as it is both sides of the glen and Tyrone,

And if I don't change my ways I'll be the heir for County Mayo.)

 

(C)Come by the (F)hills to the (C)land where (F)fancy is (C)free.

And stand where the (F)peaks meet the (C)sky and the loughs meet the (G)sea,

Where the (C)rivers run clear and the (F)bracken is (C)gold in the (G)sun;

And the (C)cares of to(F)morrow can (C)wait till (F)this day is (C)done.

 

Come by the hills to the land where life is a song.

And stand where the birds fill the air with their joy all day long,

Where the trees sway in time and even the wind sings in tune;

And, the cares of tomorrow can wait till this day is done.

 

Come by the hills to the land where legend remains.

The stories of old, fill the heart and may yet come again,

Where the past has been lost and the future is still to be won;

And, the cares of tomorrow can wait till this day is done.

And, the cares of tomorrow can wait till this day is done.
