C G7 C
I'll take you home again Kathleen
G7 C
Across the ocean wild and wide
G7 C
To where your heart has ever been
G7 D G7
Since first you were my blushing bride
F G7 C
The roses all have left your cheek
G7 C
I've watched them fade away and die
E Am C
Your voice is sad when you speak
D G7
And tears bedim your loving eyes
[Chorus]
C G7 C
Oh but I will take you back Kathleen
G7 C
To where your heart will feel no pain
F
And when the fields are fresh and green
C G7 C
I'll take you to your home again
[Verse]
C G7 C
I know you love me Kathleen dear
G7 C
Your heart was ever fond and true
G7 C
I always feel when you are near
G7 D G7
That life holds nothing dear but you
[Verse]
F G7 C
The smiles that once you gave to me
G7 C
I scarcely ever seem them now
E Am C
Though many, many times I see
D G7
A dark'ning shadow on your brow
[Chorus]
C G7 C
Oh, I will take you back Kathleen
G7 C
To where your heart will feel no pain
F
And when the fields are fresh and green
C G7 C
I'll take you to your home again
