D A


[Verse]

D
She stood beside my narrow bed
A             D
To check my E.K.G.
D
She shook her pretty little head
                    A 
At what’s become of me
D
I thought I glimpsed a path that led
Bm            A       D
Through rhododendron days
D
And fuchsia nights to the boatshed
A                     D
In which we two once lay


[Chorus]

Bm 
But she gazed only at my chart
          G                
The valleys and the peaks
G
Brought back the time she broke my heart
A                    D
In Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
Bm
But she gazed only at my chart
         G                 
The valleys and the peaks
G
Brought back the time she broke my heart
A                    D
In Macgillyduddy’s Reeks


[Verse]

D
I saw her on Killarney’s shore
A             D
One morning in July
D
When I still thought I was a thorn
                    A 
Trying to find a side
D
I met her in the little launch
Bm            A       D
That runs to Innisfallen
D
Hunched together, haunch to haunch
A                     D
Trying to keep my balance


[Chorus]

Bm 
But she upset my applecart
          G         
She kissed me on the cheek
G
And I was struck by Cupid’s dart
A                    D
In Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
Bm
Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
         G     
Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
G
I was struck by Cupid’s dart
A                    D
In Macgillycuddy’s Reeks


[Verse]

D
She was a systems analyst
A             D
For a dot com company
D
She said, “You think because we’ve kissed
                    A 
I’ll be yours eternally
D
I’ll sign another pre-nup
Bm            A       D
And we’ll merge our P.L.C.s
D
That’s why most girls go belly-up
A            D
In this economy


[Chorus]

Bm 
But when it comes to a jump start
          G         
Your forecast’s pretty bleak
G
The NASDAQ goes by dips and starts
A                    D
Like Macgillycuddy’s Reeks
Bm
Macgillucuddy’s Reeks
         G     
Macgillucuddy’s Reeks
G
The NASDAQ goes by dips and starts
A                    D
Like Macgillycuddy’s Reeks”
