Flower Of Sweet Strabane Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Bm A Bm

 If BmI were King of AIreland's Isle and had all things at my Bmwill

 I'd roam for recreAation and I'd seek for comfort Bmstill

 The comfort I would Aask for, so that you may underBmstand

 Is to win the heart of AMartha, the Flower of Sweet StraBmbane

 Her Bmcheeks they are a Aruby red, her hair a lovely Bmbrown

 And o'er her milk white Ashoulders it carelessly hangs Bmdown

 She is the fairest Acreature and the pride of all her Bmclan

 And my heart is captiAvated by the flower of Sweet StraBmbane

 Well BmI've been in the APhoenix Park and in Killarney Bmfair

 The lovely glens of AAntrim and the winding banks of BmClare

 In all my earthly Atravels I never yet met Bmone

 That could compare, I do deAclare, with the Flower of Sweet StraBmbane

 But Bmsince I cannot Again her love, no joy there is for Bmme

 And I must seek forAgetfulness in lands across the Bmsea

 Unless she cares to Afollow me, I swear by my right Bmhand

 McKenna's face you'll Ane'er more see, my Flower of Sweet StraBmbane

 So its Bmfarewell to sweet ADerry Quay, New Mills and WaterBmside

 I'll sail out o'er the Aocean, whatever may beBmtide

 I'll sail away from ADerry Quay out by the Isle of BmMan

 And I'll bid farewell to AMartha, the Flower of Sweet StraBmbane
