Intro

Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling

 >From glen to glen and down the mountain side

 The summer's gone and all the roses falling

 It's you, It's you must go and I must bide

 But come ye back when summer's in the meadow

 Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow

 I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow

 Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so

But if you come and all the flowers are dying

 And I am dead, and dead I well may be

 You'll come and find the place where I am lying

 And kneel and say an Ave there for me

 And I will know tho' soft you tread above me

 And all my grave will richer sweeter be

 And you'll bend down and tell me that you love me

 And I will rest in peace until you come to me
