The Mary Wallopers — Eileen Og

Текст песни с аккордами

    	    	Вступление

Standard tuning, Capo on 6 for the easiest way to play
If I hear it right, they play it with Capo on 2 (so transpose -4) on the album version
On some live recordings, they play it based on Em (so transpose -5).
If you wanna play along to those, transpose -5, without Capo and Guitar tuned half step down is the way to go

[Intro]
C Am F

[Verse 1]
   Am
Oh Eileen Og, now that me darlin's name is
G
Through the Barony her features they were famous
Am
If we loved her, who was there to blame us
    Am             Em            Am
For wasn't she the Pride of Petravore?
F              C
But her beauty made us all so shy
  Em                       Am
A devil one among us could look her in the eye
F                  C
Boys, oh boys, now that's the reason why
         Em                                  Am
We're in mournin' for the Pride of Petravore

[Chorus}
   F            C
Oh Eileen Og me heart has turned to grey grey,
Em                     Am
Ever since the day you wandered far away
F                  C
Eileen Og, there's good fish in the say,
            Em                                 Am    Em Am
But there's none of 'em like the Pride of Petravore

[Verse 2]
Am
Friday at the fair of Ballintubber
G
Eileen met McGrath the cattle jobber
    Am
I'd like to set me mark upon the robber
       Am             Em            Am
For he stole away the Pride of Petravore
F                  C
He never seemed to see the girl at all
Em                           Am
Even when she ogled him from underneath her shawl
F                          C
Lookin' big and masterful, she was lookin' small
   Em                          Am
Provokin' to the Pride of Petravore

[Chorus]
   F            C
Oh Eileen Og me heart has turned to grey grey,
Em                     Am
Ever since the day you wandered far away
F                  C
Eileen Og, there's good fish in the say,
            Em                                 Am    Em Am
But there's none of 'em like the Pride of Petravore

[Verse 3]
Am
Now it went as was in the beginning
G
Eileen Og was bent upon the winning
     Am
That auld McGrath, he just kept on grinning
      Am             Em                 Am
Being courted by the Pride of Petravore
     F                             C
Says he: "I know a girl that would knock you into fits"
Em                           Am
With that remark, Eileen she nearly lost her wits
    F                             C
The upshot of the ruction is that now the robber sits
         Em                           Am
With his arm around the Pride of Petravore

[Chorus]
   F            C
Oh Eileen Og me heart has turned to grey grey,
Em                     Am
Ever since the day you wandered far away
F                  C
Eileen Og, there's good fish in the say,
            Em                                 Am    Em Am
But there's none of 'em like the Pride of Petravore

[Verse 4]
   Am
Oh Boys, Oh boys, with fate 'tis hard to grapple
G
Of me eye, now Eileen was the apple
Am
Now I see her waltzing out the chapel
         Am               Em          Am
With the hardest featured man in Petravore
F                 C
Boys, oh boys, do keep in what I say:
Em                         Am
When you are acourtin', do make no display
       F                                C
If you want them to run after you, just look the other way
            Em                            Am
For they're mostly like the Pride of Petravore

[Chorus]
   F            C
Oh Eileen Og me heart has turned to grey grey,
Em                     Am
Ever since the day you wandered far away
F                  C
Eileen Og, there's good fish in the say,
            Em
But there's none of 'em like the Pride of Petra
Em
None of 'em like the Pride of Petra
Em                                 Am   Em Am
None of 'em like the Pride of Petravore
