Wolfe Tones - Sean south from garryowen

It was ^Gon a dreary new year's eve as the ^Cshades of ^Dnight came ^Gdown, A lorry load of v^Colunte^Gers approch^Emed the ^Cborder ^Dtown, There was ^Gmen from Dublin ^Cand from ^GCork,^EmFermanagh ^Cand Ty^Drone, And their l^Geader was a Limerick man ^CSean South from ^DGarry^Gowen

^GAnd as they moved along the streets up ^Cto the ba^Drrack ^Gdoor, They scorned the danger ^Cthey might^G face,the ^Emfate that ^Clay in ^Dstore, They were ^Gfighting for old ^CIrela^Gnd,to^Em claim their ^Cvery o^Dwn, And the f^Goremost of that gallant band was Sout^Ch from ^DGarry^Gowen.

^GBut the sergent foiled their daring plan,he ^Cspied them ^Dthrough the ^Gdoor, Then the Sten guns and the ^Crifles a ^Ghail of ^Emdeath d^Cid ^Dpour, And wh^Gen that auful ^Cnight was ^Gpast,two^Em men lay as c^Cold as ^Dstone, There was ^Gone from near the border,and ^Cone from ^DGarryo^Gwen.

^GNo more he'll hear the seagull cry o're the m^Curmuring ^DShannon ^Gtide, For he fell beneath a ^CNorthern s^Gky,br^Emave Hanlon ^Cby ^Ghis ^Dside, They have ^Ggone to join that ^Cgallant ^Gband of ^EmPlunkett ^CPearse and ^DTone, A ^Gmartyr for old Ireland,Sean ^CSouth from ^DGarry^Gowen
