Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Come [D]over the hills,
my bonny Irish [Bm]lass
[A]Come over [D]the hills to your dar[A]ling[D]
You choose [A]the road, [D]love,
and I'll [A]make the [Bm]vow[A]
[D]And I'll be your t[A]rue love f[Em]orever[D]

[Verse 2]
Red is [G]the rose [D]that in
[G]yonder garden grows
[D]Fair is the lily of the [G]val[D]ley
[G]Clear is the wa[D]ter that
[G]flows from the Boyne
But [D]my love [G]is fairer [A]than [D]any

[Verse 3]
'Twas down [A]by Killarney's
[D]green wood[A]s that we [Bm]strayed
[A]When the moo[D]n and the stars
[A]they were shining
The moon [D]shone [G]its rays on
her locks [D]of golden [Bm]hair
[D]And she swore she'd be my
[A]love forever[Em][D]
Red is [G]the rose [D]that

[Verse 4]
in yonder [G]garden grows
[D]Fair is the lily of the [G]val[D]ley
[G]Clear [D]is the water that
[G]flows from the Boyne
But [D]my love [G]is fairer [D]than any[A]
[D]It's not for the parting

[Verse 5]
[D]that
my sis[Bm]ter pains[G]
[D]It's not for the grief [A]of my [Bm]mother[A]
Tis all for the loss of my bonny
[G]Irish [Bm]lass
[D]That my [A]heart is breaking [D]forever

[Verse 6]
Red [G]is the [D]rose that in
[G]yonder garden grows
[D]Fair is the lily of the [G]val[D]ley
[G]Clear [D]is the water that
[Em]flows [G]from the Boyne
But [D]my love [G]is [D]fairer [A]than any[D]

[Verse 7]
Red is the rose that in
[Em]yonder [G]garden grows
[D]Fair is the lily of the [G]val[A]ley
[G]Clear [D]is the water that
[G]flows from the Boyne
But [D]my love is fairer [A]than any
