With your (G)heather scented (D)air
Silently the (F#m)peaceful (Bm)brosna(E7)
Calls her (A7)sons from (A)far and (D)near
Oh (D)Kinnitty I long to see
When the (G)woodbine’s in full (D)bloom
Or stroll the fields (Bm)around Ferbane
Hear the (E7)wild birds in full (A)tune
At (D)Clonmacnoise I see you
Onto (G)Banagher we’ll (D)stray
Where the fisher(F#m)men will (Bm)drink and (E7)tear
Of the (A7)ones that (A)got a(D)way

Are some (G)friends I used to (D)know
Still I must pass (Bm)Killoughy
Where great (E7)sportmen are laid (A)low
By (D)Croghan HillI see you
Where in (G)childhood I did (D)play
So adieu to (F#m)you be(Bm)loved Slieve (E7)Bloom
I (A7)must be (A)on my (D)way
(D)Pile the brown turf on the fire
Bring the (G)keg in from the (D)barn

And the (E7)poacher tell his (A)yarn
Come (D)close my friends and neighbors
Fill your (G)glasses to the (D)brim
And we toast our (F#m)Offaly (Bm)heros (E7)from
