[Verse 1]
[D]Eileen O 'Grady, Come,
Come, Beautiful [A]Lady[D][G][D][A][D][G]
[D]Now Eileen O 'Grady's a sweet Irish lady
I [G]long far [Em]to call her my [D]own
Sure [Em]I won't be contented
till she has consented
To [E]be Mistress Barney Malone
[A]I fir[D]st met this treasure out
walking at leisure alone
[G]on a bright summer's day[F#]
Without [Em]any warning the top of the morning
I [E]just said to her right [A]away
[D]Come, come, beautiful [A]Eileen,[D]
come for a [G]ride with [D]me
Over the mountain, down by the fountain,
[E]over the high [B]road
and [A]down by the by -road,
[D]make up your mind, don't be unkind,
we'll drive to Castle [G]Bar.
On the [D]road I'm no [A]stranger,
for [D]you there's no [G]danger,
so [D]hop like a [A]bird on [D]the Argen
[G]tine [D]car.[A][D][G]
[D]Now Eileen said, no sir,
with you I won't go, sir,
don't [G]think it ungrateful of [D]me
Sure I'd rather [Em]be walking
than have people talking,
[E]you know what a story it would [A]be
I [D]then whispered, Jewelock,
don't be so cruel
to treat [G]me like this is a [F#]shame
Give over [Em]your blarney
and come with your barney down,
don't [E]have me bleeding in [A]vain
[D]Come, come, beautiful Eileen,
come for a [G]drive with [D]me
Over the mountain, down by the fountain,
[E]over the high road
and down [A]by the by -road
[D]Make up your mind, don't be unkind,
We'll drive to Castle [G]Bar.
On the [D]road I'm no [A]stranger for [D]you,
There's no danger,
So hop like a [A]bird on the
[D]Elgin[G]ton [D]car.[A][D][G]
[D]When at last she consented,
I felt quite contented,
For to [G]me it was a [Em]moment [G]of [D]bliss.
As we drove [Em]through Killarney
without any blarney
From [E]Eileen I stole a sweet [A]kiss
We [D]both sat together like
birds of a feather
Well, [G]Whisper, I'll tell what was [F#]said
She [Em]promised Big Garret
to share joy and sorrow
So [E]to her I'll sing when we're [A]well
[D]Come, come, you do so highly,
come for a [G]night of [D]peace
Over the mountains,
down by the fountain,
[E]over the high road
and [A]down by the fire
One [D]thing of the mind,
don't be unkind,
so drive to castle [G]fire
On the [D]road I'm no [A]stranger for [D]you,
there's no [G]singer so [D]hot
like a [A]bird
on the [D]edge of [G]Santa [D]Clara.
