Mountains Of Mourne Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 Oh A♯Mary this London's a D♯wonderful Cm7sight

 The Fpeople here are workin' by A♯/Dday and by A♯night

 They don't sow potatoes, nor D♯barley, nor Cm7wheat

 But there's Fgangs of them diggin' for A♯/Dgold in the A♯street

 At Fleast when I asked them that's A♯what I was Gm7told

 So I A♯just took her Cmhand at this D♯diggin' for Fgold

 But for A♯all that I Cm7found there I D♯might as well Dmbe

 In Fthe place where the D♯dark Mournes sweep A♯/Ddown to the A♯sea.

(A♯, D♯, Cm7, F, A♯/D, A♯)

(Same as first verse):

There's beautiful girls here, Oh never you mind

Beautiful shapes nature never designed

lovely complexions of roses and cream

But let me remark with regard to the same

That if at that those roses you venture to sip

The colours might all come away on your lips

So I'll wait for the wild rose that's waitin' for me

In the place where the dark Mourne sweep down to the sea.

(A♯, D♯, Cm7, F, A♯/D, A♯) x2

(Same as first verse):

You remember young Davey Mc Clarin of course

Well sure, now, he's round here with the rest of the force

I saw him one day as I was crossin’ the strand

And he stopped the whole street with a wave of his hand

And as we stood talkin’ of days that are gone

The whole town of London stood there to look on

But for all his great powers he's wishful like me

To be back where the dark Mourne sweep down to the sea

But for all his great powers he's wishful like me

To be back where the dark Mourne sweep down to the sea
