[Intro]
C G Em / C G Em D
[Verse 1]
G C
The last time I saw you it was down at The Greek
G Em
There was whiskey on Sunday and tears on our cheeks
G C
You sang me a song just as pure as the breeze
G Em A D
On the road leading up Glenveagh
[Verse 2]
G C
I sat for a while at the cross at Finnoe
C G Em
Where young lovers would meet when the flowers were in bloom
G Em C G
Heard the men coming home from the fair in Shinrone
G Em G
Their hearts in Tipperary wherever they roam
[Chorus]
G D
Take my hand, and dry your tears Shane
G C G D
Take my hand, forget your fears Shane
G Em C G
There's no pain, there's no more sorrow
G Bm Am D G
They're all gone, gone in the years Shane
[Bridge]
C Em D
[Verse 3]
G C G
I sat for a while by a gap in the wall
G Em
On a rusty tin can and an old hurling ball
G C G
Heard the cards being dealt, and the rosary called
G D
And a fiddle playing Sean Dun Na Ngall
[Verse 4]
G C G
And the next time I see you we'll be down at the Greeks
G Em
There'll be whiskey on Sunday, tears on our cheeks
G C
But its stupid to laugh and it's useless to bawl
G Em G
About a rusty tin can and an old hurling ball
[Chorus]
C G D
Take my hand, and dry your tears Shane
G C G D
Take my hand, forget your fears Shane
Em C G
There's no pain, there's no more sorrow
Bm Am D G
They're all gone, gone in the years Shane
[Bridge]
G C G Em
G C G Em D
G C G D
[Outro]
D G D
So I walked as day was dawning
D G C G D
Where small birds sang and the leaves were falling
D G Em C G
Where we once watched the row boats landing
Bm Am D G
By the broad majestic Shannon
G C G
Where we once watched the row boats landing
Bm Am D G
By the broad majestic Shannon
