Wedding

             C             C   
Well oh, the green mountainsides 
       F               C
over fields where we lay,
     C                   C        
Over sun-splashed orange skylines,
     G                    G
 my (...), they bleed and scream.
      C                 C         
And I crush 'em wit' my boot 
         F            C
heels, for no shells I can afford.
        F             C           
And I'm off to Dublin city, for 
   G                 C
I've lost our room and board.
      F                 F          
No, I couldn't join the army. If I 
C                   G
died, what would we do?
   F               C              
Me wife, she is my sunshine, but 
   G                 C
she knows not what we do.

To my dearest, sweetest Colleen, 
         F                  C
please forgive me for not calling.
  C                 C              
I regret you had to find this, the 
G                  G
note that says I'm gone.
        C               C      
Well, I hope you do not shun me, 
       F               C
only ask that you forgive me.
       F                   C      
It was bound to happen, as we both
           G                 C
 know. You know it had to be done.
           C            C         
Well, take hold of tiny Kathleen. 
          F C
Take her (...).
              C           
Well, there's money in the 
 C                G              G
strongbox, (...) tickets in the car.
        C                C        
I can't stand to see you crying, 
       F             C
nor can you to see us dying.
           F              C       
Well, I've gone to set it right. I
             G                  
 know you'll think I've gone too 
 C
far.
         F                  F     
I cannot take this pressure on me.
             C                    
 No one ever said it was in-store 
G
for me.
        F               C         
Well, I pray you do not shun me. 
          G                C
I'm coming back, my dear Colleen.
