Big Tom Version Intro F, Em, D, G, G
Oh I [C]know it’s not right, remi[F]niscing to[C]night
Of
the [F]days that are [C]gone and returning no [G]more
[F]For the[C] girl I dream of, has a a[F]nother mans [C]love
[F]Far,
far a[C]way on a [G]Donegal [C]shore,,[F]
But[C] why should I care for she’s
[F]happy o’er [C]there
She[F] may have [C]children, she may be wealthy or [G]poor
But I [C]can’t help my
dreams of [F]what might have [C]been
If [F]I stayed at [C]home on my [G]Donegal [C]shore
Now it’s [F]winter time there, all the [C]trees will be bare
And the [F]rainclouds will [C]darken my native
Gwee[G]dore
But if that [C]girl I could hold every [F]raindrop would be [C]gold
It could [F]fall all a[C]round us on
my [G]Donegal [C]shore
[A]Now there’s [D]none to
blame but be[G]fore she took his [D]name
When she [G]told me she [D]loved him, it hurt to the [A]core
But I could [D]never
descend, to be [G]only her [D]friend
So [G]I left her [D]there on my [A]Donegal [D]shore
Now
it’s [G]winter time there, all the [D]trees will be bare
And the [G]rainclouds will [D]darken my native Gwee[A]dore
But
if that [D]girl I could hold, every [G]raindrop would be [D]gold
It could [G]fall all a[D]round us on my [A]Donegal [D]shore
It
could [G]fall all a[D]round us un my [A]Donegal [D]shore
