Larry Cunningham — Lovely Leitrim

    	    	Вступление

[Verse 1]
     G             C                G       D7     G
Last night I had a pleasant dream I woke up with a smile
  G                  C             Am              D7
I dreamed that I was back again in dear old Erin's isle
  G                   C                    Am             D7
I thought I saw Lough Allen's banks in the valleys down below
   G             C                 G       D7     G
It was my lovely Leitrim where the Shannon waters flow

[Verse 2]
  G              C               G        D7    G
I felt enchanted by the scene of grandeur and delight
   G                C             Am               D7
So I strolled on to Carrig Town before the dark of night
  G                     C                Am              D7
I passed Sheepmore that fairy hill where flowers fine do grow
      G                C                     G       D7     G
And I saw the grave of Finn McColl where the Shannon waters flow

[Verse 3]
  G              C                    G       D7    G
I next did visit Fenagh Town with her ancient abbey walls
          G               C               Am                 D7
Where the teaching of the holy monks once echoed through her halls
  G                    C             Am             D7
I stood with reverence on the spot reluctant for to go
         G                  C               G       D7     G
From the town of saints and sages where the Shannon waters flow

[Verse 4]
   G                   C                G       D7       G
My eyes are dimmed and wet with tears I must be dreaming still
  G                   C           Am             D7
I thought I saw those hero's that died on Selton Hill
        G              C                  Am             D7
But the fog is lifting from the scene and I am forced to go
    G                 C                        G       D7     G
And leave the land so fair and grand where the Shannon waters flow

[Verse 5]
   G                  C                       G    D7      G
In all the lands that I have been through the east and the west
   G                  C             Am              D7
In all the lands that I have seen I love my own the best
       G        C              Am                 D7
And if ever I return again the first place I will go
     G            C                 G       D7     G
Will be to lovely Leitrim where the Shannon waters flow
