The chords are the same the whole way through, following the same timing and all. this is an old song [Intro] Em C G D X 4 [Verse 1]
EmAs I roved out Cone evening as GSol cast his rDays EmBehind yon westCern mountains aGnd the wide weDstern seas EmI carelessly roCved out, my leiGsure hours to Dpass EmFor to view theC Shannon water Gthat flows thrDough Doonass EmMy mind was enrCaptured at thGis enchantingD scene EmSuch a place in Call Ireland, Gthere is not ID ween EmProud, beautifulC and crystal Gbright, shining likeD glass EmIs that pure ShaCnnon water tGhat flows through DooDnass
[CHORUS]
EmIn Doonass I was Cborn and ‘tGis there I’d like to Ddie EmAnd down in its oCld churchyard, mGy old bones liDe EmFor if fortune proves in Cfavour, the sGeas I ne’er will cDross EmNor bid adieu to CClonlara, GCastleconnell or DDoonass
[Verse 2]
EmHave you been to CKillarney, the GCauseway or DQuay EmThe proud bay of CDublin, LGoophead or KDinsale ? EmThe city cove of CCork seems butG shadows or Dgas EmWhen compared to the Cproud rolling Gfalls of DDoonass EmAnd if you’re tired oCf walking, pGroceed on furtheDr still EmTo the right of MassCey’s mansion, ‘Gtis there you’ll get your Dfill EmAnd when you reach tChe summit, cGome fill up your gDlass EmDrink a health, weaClth and honour to the Gfalls of DDoonass
[Chorus]
EmIn Doonass I was Cborn and ‘tGis there I’d like to Ddie EmAnd down in its oCld churchyard, mGy old bones liDe EmFor if fortune proves in Cfavour, the sGeas I ne’er will cDross EmNor bid adieu to CClonlara, GCastleconnell or DDoonass
[Verse 3]
EmGo into the rock-gaCrdens to take a refresGhing breezDe EmWhere the holy handC of time has spread beGneath its Dtrees Em‘tis there you’ll sCee the anglers, both bGonny, brigDht and gay EmWith their artificiCal flies in the sweet Gmonth of MDay EmGo eastward and wesCtward and into the chuGrchyard D EmQuiet sober and silCent, ‘twould win your Gregard D EmWith its crumbling Cwalls of ivy and graveGs of greenD grass EmAnd the dead lying Cbeneath them near the Gfalls of DDoonass
[Chorus]
EmIn Doonass I was Cborn and ‘tGis there I’d like to Ddie EmAnd down in its oCld churchyard, mGy old bones liDe EmFor if fortune proves in Cfavour, the sGeas I ne’er will cDross EmNor bid adieu to CClonlara, GCastleconnell or DDoonass
[Verse 4]
EmAnd if you’re nCot tired of walGking, proceed Don further still EmUntil you come Cup with Saint SGenan’s holy weDll EmWhere the lame,C blind and wearGy a cure ever Dhas EmIn that healingC gift from heavGen near the faDlls of Doonass EmOh, when shall Cthat day come, Gthat dear and Dhappy hour EmWhen I’ll walk Cundisturbed ‘neGath the turretD’s green bower EmWith my mind frCee from care, aGnd by my side Da lass EmAnd she lives iCn a cottage neaGr the falls ofD Doonass
[Chorus]
EmIn Doonass I was Cborn and ‘tGis there I’d like to Ddie EmAnd down in its oCld churchyard, mGy old bones liDe EmFor if fortune proves in Cfavour, the sGeas I ne’er will cDross EmNor bid adieu to CClonlara, GCastleconnell or DDoonass
