It's A Long Way Home To Donegal by Larrikin Love / M. Mitchell from the B-side to "Edwould" ------------------------------------- NOTE: The lyrics and chords are only approximate, but to me they sound about right, so I apologise to anyone if they are wrong... ----------- Intro G, Bm, C, D, G, D Verse 1 G I'll follow their father wherever you go, Bm C I know that I'll snow, we can bestow together, D G D With a drink in our chest we'll be strong, we'll be strong Verse 2 G While I love you dear mother, now, don't you frown, Bm I'll be back some day without the grey skies, C D G D We'll have supper, together again, we'll have supper, once again Chorus G D It's a long way home C D G D It's a long way home to Donegal Verse 3 G so farewell my beauty, my sweet young girl, Bm i'll see you again, I'll marry you as well, C D G D we'll make love, have sweet children, and make love, once again Verse 4 G Then December the 12th, a letter it came, Bm C It re-sung your young love, was laid by a fever last night, D G D Oh no, I never saw, Oh, again Chorus x 2 Instrumental G, Bm, C, D, G, D X2 Verse 5 G Oh say so my brother, wherever we roam, Bm I love you like the places we go, C D G D and our friends smoke cigarettes, and they're friends, best of friends Verse 6 G Oh there's no Irish blood, in our English years, Bm we fight with our fists and swallow our fears, C D G D and be strong, with a drink in our chest we'll be strong, we'll be strong Chorus x2 False End G End Instrumental (D, G, D, A D, G, D, A, D) x6 (1st time just banjo, then 4x all, 6th time fade out) Tabbed by the Badger King.
