Liam Clancy - The Foggy Dew
CAPO: 2nd Fret
[INTRO:] Am C G C Am
[VERSE 1:]
As Fdown the glen one GEaster morn to a Ccity Amfair rode I
When FIreland's lines of Gmarching men in Csquadrons Ampassed me by
No Cpipes did Emhum and no Gbattle Cdrum did Amsound it's dread tatFtoo
But the AmAngelus Fbell o'er the GLiffey's swell rang Cout in the AmFoggy Dew
[Verse 2:]
Right Fproudly high over GDublin Town, they Chung out the Amflag of war
For 'twas Fbetter to die 'neath an GIrish sky than at CSuvla or AmSud El Bar
And Cfrom the Emplains of GRoyal CMeath strong Ammen came hurrying Fthrough
While BriAmtannia's Fsons, with their Glong range guns, sailed Cin from the AmFoggy Dew
[Verse 3:]
'Twas FEngland bade our GWild Geese go, that small Cnations Ammight be free
But their Flonely graves are by GSuvla's waves or the Cfringe of the Amgrey North Sea
But Chad they Emdied by GPearse's Cside or Amfought with Valera Ftrue
Their Amgraves we'd Fkeep where our GFenians sleep, 'neath the Chills of the AmFoggy Dew
[Verse 4:]
Now, the Fbravest fell and the Gsullen bell rang CmournfulAmly and clear
For Fthose who died that GEastertide in the Cspringing Amof the year
And the Cworld did Emgaze in Gdeep aCmaze at those Amfearless men and Ftrue
Who Ambore the Ffight that Gfreedom's light might Cshine through the AmFoggy Dew
