D D7 G D A
By a lonely prison wall I heard a young girl calling,
D G A A7
Michael, they have taken you away.
D G D A
For you stole Trevelyan's corn, so the young might see the morn,
Em A D
Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay.
G D Bm
Low lie the fields of Athenry,
D Bm A A7
Where once we watched small free birds fly.
D G D A
Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing,
Em A D
It's so lonely around the fields of Athenry.

D D7 G D A
By a lonely prison wall I heard a young man calling,
D G A A7
Mary, nothing matters when you're free,
D G D A
Against the famine and the Crown I rebelled, they ran me down,
Em A D
Please say that you will watch and wait for me.
D7 G D A
By a lonely harbour wall she watched the last star falling,
D G A A7
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky.
D G D A
Sure she'll live and hope and pray for her love in Botany Bay,
Em A D
It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry.
