AChairde,

I was wondering if everyone might be willing to share the chords they use to play The Fields of Athenry?

All the best,

Matt Kavanah

I like the sound of this...

Fields of Athenry
Christy Moore
By the l[G]onely prison wall. I
h[C]eard a young girl c[G]all[D7]ing.
M[G]ichael, they are t[C]aking you a[D7]way, for you
[G]stole Trevelyn's c[C]orn. So the y[G]oung might see the [D7]morn.
[D7]Now a prisonship lies waiting in the [G]bay.

Chorus:
[G]Low l[C]ie, the F[G]ields of A[Em]thenry, where
[G]once we watched the small free birds [D7]fly. Our
[G]love was on the w[C]ing, we had d[G]reams and songs to s[D7]ing.
It's so [D7]lonely 'round the fields of Athen[G]ry.

By a lonely prison wallI heard a young man calling.Nothing matters Mary when you're free,
Against the Famine and the CrownI rebelled, they ran me down.Now you must raise our child with dignity.
Chorus!
By a lonely harbour wallShe watched the last star falling.And that prison ship sailed out against the sky.Sure she'll wait and hope and pray,for her love in Botany Bay.It's so lonely round the fields of Athenry
