Old Blind Dogs - Lough ernes shore

One ^Dmmorning as I went a-^Gfowling Bright ^FPhoebus a^Gdorning the ^Amplain It was ^Dmdown by the shores of Lough ^GErne I ^Fmet with a ^Gbeautiful ^Dmdame

Her voice was so sweet and so ^Gpleasing These ^Fbeautiful ^Gnotes she did ^Amsing The ^Dminnocent fowl of the ^Gforest Their ^Floving to ^Gher they did ^Dmbring ^{C G}

It ^Dmbeing the first time I ^Gmet her My ^Fheart it did ^Gleap with sur^Amprise I ^Dmthought that she could be no ^Gmortal But an ^Fangel that ^Gfell from the ^Dmskies

Her hair it hung down in gold ^Gtresses Her ^Fskin was as ^Gwhite as the ^Amsnow Her ^Dmcheeks were as red as the ^Groses That will ^Fbloom along ^GLough Erne's ^Dmshore ^{C G}

When I ^Dmheard that my love was e^Gloping These ^Fwords un^Gto her I did ^Amsay Oh, ^Dmtake me to your habi^Gtation For ^Fcupid has ^Gled me a^Dmstray

All my life I will keep the com^Gmandments They ^Fsay that it ^Gis the best ^Amplan Young ^Dmmaidens who yield to men's ^Gpleasures The ^Fscriptures do ^Gsay they are ^Dmwrong

^DmMary don't accuse me of ^Gweakness All ^Ftreachery ^GI do dis^Amown I will ^Dmmake you a lady of ^Ghonour If ^Fwith me this ^Gnight you'll come ^Dmhome

Had ^DmI all the wealth of A^Gladdin His ^Fgold and his ^Gjewels and what's ^Ammore I would ^Dmpart with them all for to ^Gwin you And ^Flive along ^GLough Erne's ^Dmshore And ^Flive along ^GLough Erne's ^Dmshore And ^Flive along ^GLough Erne's ^Dmshore
