[Verse 1]
Cm                      Ab
Set out from the Doorin shore
       Gm  Bb
In the shallows
  Cm                       Ab
A calm had spread from the north
        Gm   Bb
To the south shoals
  Ab         G
A dot on the endless sky
    Ab                  G
The storm came upon our sights


[Chorus 1]
   Eb         Bb
Tomorrow will come
    Eb                Ab
But not for you young ones
   Eb                Bb
No I won't heed your warn
     Eb                      Ab   Bb
I'll battle the wave and the storm
Cm         Bb   Ab  Cm
I'll stand alone


[Verse 2]
   Cm                Ab
In Cobh we spent the night
Gm                Bb
Sate with Abbot’s ale
Cm              Ab
Lay down with a lass
 Gm              Bb
Alas my eyes did fail
       Ab                 G
On the road the following morn
    Ab                    G
The robbers came upon nay warning


[Chorus 2]
Eb                 Bb
Mates made for the trees
Eb            Ab
Left me on my knees
     Eb            Bb
I'll not cede this gold
     Eb              Ab   Bb
I've come too far to roll
Cm         Bb    Ab
I'll stand alone

[Verse 3]
Dm                    Bb
Settled on the shores Adare
    Am               C
The place that I was born
    Dm               Bb
The past had left me bare
   Am               C
No will to fight anymore
    Bb                A
The brigands rang the bell
      Bb              A
Ships came in without warning


[Chorus 3]
    F                C
The years that I was brave
    F                Bb
The soldiers and the slave
    F                 C
The battle lay for me now
  F                  Bb   C
I know not where nor how
