I was (D)dreaming of old (G)Ireland and (D)Killarney's lakes and fells,
I was (G)dreaming of the (D)shamrock and the
(E)dear old Shandon (A7)bells, ,
When my (D)memory sugg(G)ested in a (D)vision bright and clear, ,
All the (G)strange
things that would (D)happen if we (A)had old Ireland (D)here. ,
CHORUS,
If the Blarney stone stood (G)out on Sydney (D)harbour, ,
And (G)Dublin town to Melbourne came to (D)stay, ,
If the
Shannon River (G)joined the Brisbane (D)Waters, ,
And Kill(E)arney's lakes flowed into Botany (A7)Bay, ,
If the (D)Shandon
bells rang (G)out in old Free(D)mantle,
And (G)County Cork at Adelaide did ap(D)pear,
Erin's (Bm)sons would never roam,
all the (D)boys would stay at home, ,
If we only had old (A)Ireland over (D)here. ,
There are lots of lovely fairies dancing on the village green, ,
There are lots of lovely colleens, the finest ever
seen, ,
Where the boys are all called Paddy and the girls called Molly dear, ,
Sure we'd wrap the green flag 'round
them if we had old Ireland here. ,
