The Wind That Shakes the Barley chords and lyrics - THE CLANCY BROTHERS AND TOMMY MAKEM

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Am]I sat within the valley gr[G]een,
I sat [Am]me with my true love
My sad heart strove the two [G]between,
[Am]the old love and the new love
The old for her, the new that made
me think on Ireland dearly
While soft the wind blew down [G]the glen
[Am]and shook the golden barley

[Verse 2]
[Am]'Twas hard the woeful words to [G]frame
[Am]to break the ties that bound us
But harder still to bear the [G]shame of
for[Am]eign chains around us
And so I said, "The mountain glen
I'll seek at morning early
And join the bold united [G]men,
[Am]while soft winds shake the barley"

[Verse 3]
While sad I kissed away her [G]tears,
[Am]my fond arm[G]s round [Am]her flinging
The foeman's shot burst [G]on our ears
[Am]from out the wildwood ringing
A bullet pierced my true love's side
in life's young spring so early
And on my breast in blood [G]she died while
[Am]soft winds [G]shook [Am]the barley

[Verse 4]
But blood for blood without re[G]morse
I've [Am]taken at Oulart Hollow
And laid my true love's clay cold corpse
where I full soon [G]may fol[Am]low
As round her grave I wander drear, noon,
night and morning early
With breaking heart when [G]e'er I hear
[Am]the wind that shakes the barley
