Verse 1
Dm
As down the glen one Easter
C
Dm
morn' to a city fair rode I
There, armed lines of marching men
in squadrons passed me by
Am
F
Bb
no battle drum did sound its loud tattoo
Dm
But the Angelus Bell o'er the Lif
C
Dm
fey's swell rang out in the foggy dew
Verse 2
Dm
C
Right proudly high over Dublin Town
Am
Dm
they hung out the flag of war
C
'Twas better to die 'neath an Irish sky
Am
Dm
Gm
Dm
than at Suvla or Sud- El- Bar
F
C
Am
And from the plains of Royal Meath,
Dm
Am
Bb
strong men came hurrying through
Dm
While Britannia's Huns with
C
Am
their greatbig guns
Bb
C
Sailed in through the foggy

Verse 3
Dm
C
Am
Oh, the night fell black and the rifles' crack
Dm
Gm
C
Dm
made perfidious Al bion reel
In the leaden rain
Am
Dm
Seven tongues of flame did shine
Gm
Dm
o'er the lines of steel
F
C
Am
By each shining blade a prayer was said
Dm
Am
Bb
that to Ireland her sons be true
Dm
When the morning broke
C
Am
Still the war flag shook out its
Bb
C
folds in the foggy dew
Interlude 2
Dm
Verse 4
Dm
C
Am
'Twas England bade our wild geese go,
Dm
Gm
Dm
that small nations might be free
But their lonely graves are
C
Am
by Suvla's waves
Dm
Gm
Dm
Or the fringe of the great North Sea
F
C
Am
Oh, had they died by Pearse's side
Dm
Am
Bb
or fought with Cathal Brugha
Dm
Their names we will keep where
C
Am
the Fenians sleep
Bb
C
'Neath the shroud of the foggy
C

Verse 5
Dm
Oh, the bravest fell,
and the Requiem bell rang mournfully and clear
For those who died that Eastertide in
Bb
Dm
the spring time of the year
F
While the world did gaze with deep amaze
Bb
At those fearless men, but few
Dm
Who bore the fight that freedom's light
Interlude 3
Might shine through the foggy dew
Dm
Verse 6
Dm
C
Am
Back through the glen, I rode again,
Dm
Gm
Dm
my heart with grief was sore
C
Am
For I parted with those gallant men
Dm
Gm
Dm
whom I never shall see more
F
C
Am
But to and fro in my dreams I go,
Dm
Am
Bb
and I kneel and pray for you
Dm
C
Am
For slavery fled, O glorious dead,
Bb
C
Dm
when you fell in the foggy dew
