Cruiskeen Lawn Lyrics and chords fit the Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem on their album ‚Flowers In The Valley. Use a capo on the 5th fret. This traditional drinking song uses a chorus in Irish language which is given in English phonetics.

Intro: Am-Em-Am-Am

Chorus
Oh! (C)Gramachree ma-cruiskeen,
(G)Slainte geal mavoorneen
(Am)Gra-machree ma-(E)cruiskeen, (Am)lawn, (G)lawn, (Am)lawn, (G)Oh!
(Am)Gramachree ma-(E)cruiskeen (Am)lawn.

Let the (Am)farmer praise his grounds,
Let the huntsman praise his (E)hounds,
And the (Am)shepherd praise his sweet scented (E)lawn;
Oh but (C)I, more wise than they,
Spend each (G)happy night and day
With my (Am)charmin' little (E)cruiskeen (Am)lawn, (G)lawn, (Am)lawn (G)
Me (Am)smilin’ little (E)cruiskeen (Am)lawn.

Chorus

Im(Am)mortal and divine,
Great Bacchus, god of (E)wine
Cre(Am)ate me by adoption your own (E)son.
In (C)hopes that you'll comply,
That my (G)glass shall ne'er run dry
Nor my (Am)smilin' little (E)cruiskeen (Am)lawn, (G)lawn, (Am)lawn (G)
Me (Am)smilin’ little (E)cruiskeen (Am)lawn.
 
Chorus
 
 
And (Am)when grim Death appears,
In a few but pleasant (E)years,
He’ll (Am)say wont you come along with (E)me
I'll (C)say, "Begone, you knave!
For great (G)Bacchus gave me leave
To (Am)take another (E)cruiskeen (Am)lawn, (G)lawn, (Am)lawn (G)
Me (Am)smilin’ little (E)cruiskeen (Am)lawn.
Chorus
