Shanagolden

     C                  Am        
The cold winds from the mountains,
     F               C
 are calling soft to me,
    G                Em           
The smell of scented heather, 
   Am     G7
brings bitter memories,
    G               Em        Am 
The wild and lonely eagle, up in 
           G7
the summer sky,
      Am            F             
Flies high or Shannagolden, where 
               C
my young Willy lies

[Verse 2]
   C            Am          F    
Do you remember darling, we 
              C
walked the moonlit road,
  G              Em             
I held you in my arms then, I'd 
Am            G7
never let you go,
    G               Em            
Our hands they were entwined my 
   Am                    G7
love all in the pale moonlight,
       Am             F           
By the fields of Shanagolden, on a
                 C
 lonely winter's night.

     C                Am          
Then came the call to arms love, 
       F                C
and the hills they were aflamed,
     G               Em           
Down from the silent mountains, 
  Am              G7
the Saxon strangers came,
   G             Em            Am
I held you in my arms then, my 
                    G7
young heart wild with fear,
       Am             F           
By the fields of Shanagolden, in 
                      C
the spring time of the year.

[Verse 3]
        C                   Am    
And you fought them darling Willy,
     F                    C
 all through those summer days,
  G                Em             
I heard the rifles firing, in the 
Am             G7
mountains far away,
  G              Em              
I held you in my arms then, your 
Am                 G7
blood ran free and bright,
    Am               F         
And you died in Shanagolden on a 
                  C
lonely winter's night.

[Verse 4]
       C             Am           
Oh but that was long ago my love, 
        F                  C
and our son grows fine and tall,
    G                 Em          
The hills they are at peace again,
     Am              G7
 the Saxon strangers gone,
        G             Em          
There's roses on your grave my 
           Am              G7
love, there's an eagle in the sky,
       Am           F             
Flying high or Shanagolden, where 
               C
my young Willy died.

[Verse 1]
     C                  Am        
The cold winds from the mountains,
     F               C
 are calling soft to me,
    G                Em           
The smell of scented heather, 
   Am     G7
brings bitter memories,
    G               Em        Am 
The wild and lonely eagle, up in

the summer sky,
      Am            F             
Flies high or Shannagolden, where

my young Willy lies
