Have you ever heard the story of how Ireland got it's name?
Em Cmaj7 Em B7 Em
I'll tell you so you'll understand from whence old Ireland came

No wonder that we're proud of that dear land across the sea
Em Cmaj7 Em Am Em
For here's the way me dear old mother told the tale to me
G13 G7 C Cmaj7 E7 F A7 Dm Dm/C
Sure, a little bit of heaven fell from out the sky one day
G7/B G7 F/G Cmaj7 Em
And nestled in the ocean in a spot so far a way
Gdim7 Dm A7 Dm
And when the angels found it, sure it looked so sweet and fair
B7 B7sus4 B7 Em Am Em
They said suppose we leave it, for it looks so peaceful there
G13 G7 C Cmaj7 E7 F A7 Dm Dm/C
So they sprinkled it with star dust just to make the shamrocks grow
G7/B G7 F/G Cmaj7 Em
'Tis the only place you'll find them no matter where you go

Then they dotted it with silver, to make it's lakes so grand
B7-9 C Cdim7 C F Fdim7 Dm7 G C Am G
And when they had it fin ished sure they called it Ire
