Irish Traditional

Capo I

Bm (x24432@1)A (x02220@1)Bm (x24432@1)Bm (x24432@1)           A (x02220@1)                                     BmIf (x24432@1)I were King of Ireland's Isle and had all things at my will
                  A (x02220@1)                            BmI'd (x24432@1)roam for recreation and I'd seek for comfort still
                    A (x02220@1)                           BmThe (x24432@1)comfort I would ask for, so that you may understand
                       A (x02220@1)                             BmIs (x24432@1)to win the heart of Martha, the Flower of Sweet Strabane

Bm (x24432@1)              A (x02220@1)                         BmHer (x24432@1)cheeks they are a ruby red, her hair a lovely brown
                        A (x02220@1)                           BmAnd (x24432@1)o'er her milk white shoulders it carelessly hangs down
                   A (x02220@1)                               BmShe (x24432@1)is the fairest creature and the pride of all her clan
                     A (x02220@1)                              BmAnd (x24432@1)my heart is captivated by the flower of Sweet Strabane

Bm (x24432@1)             A (x02220@1)                           BmWell (x24432@1)I've been in the Phoenix Park and in Killarney fair
                    A (x02220@1)                             BmThe (x24432@1)lovely glens of Antrim and the winding banks of Clare
                  A (x02220@1)                     BmIn (x24432@1)all my earthly travels I never yet met one
                           A (x02220@1)                                 BmThat (x24432@1)could compare, I do declare, with the Flower of Sweet Strabane

Bm (x24432@1)           A (x02220@1)                                BmBut (x24432@1)since I cannot gain her love, no joy there is for me
                   A (x02220@1)                            BmAnd (x24432@1)I must seek forgetfulness in lands across the sea
                    A (x02220@1)                            BmUnless (x24432@1)she cares to follow me, I swear by my right hand
                      A (x02220@1)                                    BmMcKenna's (x24432@1)face you'll ne'er more see, my Flower of Sweet Strabane

Bm (x24432@1)              A (x02220@1)                            BmSo (x24432@1)its farewell to sweet Derry Quay, New Mills and Waterside
                       A (x02220@1)                   BmI'll (x24432@1)sail out o'er the ocean, whatever may betide
                    A (x02220@1)                           BmI'll (x24432@1)sail away from Derry Quay out by the Isle of Man
                         A (x02220@1)                             BmAnd (x24432@1)I'll bid farewell to Martha, the Flower of Sweet Strabane
