Introduction:

                   C                                                       F                               G 
        The winter it has passed and the summer's come at last,
                         G7                           C                             G 
        and the birds they are singing in the trees.
                               G                                   C               F                       G 
        And their little hearts are glad, but mine is very sad,
                           C                     F                         G 
        for my true love is far away from me.
                   C                                                   F                               G 
        The rose upon the briar by the water's running clear
                     G7                   C                           G 
        gives joy to the linnet and the bee.
                       G                                   C                     F                               G 
        Their little hearts are blessed, but mine, it's not addressed,
                           C                     F                   G 
        for my true love is absent from me.
                       G7                             C                     F                         G 
And it's straight I will repair to the Curragh of Kildare,
                       C                           F                         G 
for it's there I'll find tidings of my dear.
                   C                                               F                     G 
        All you that are in love and cannot it remove,
             G7                 C                             G 
        I pity the pains that you endure.
                       G                                 C                           F                                 G 
        For experience lets me know that your hearts are full of woe,
                       C                     F                       G 
        and a woe that no mortal can endure.
                       G7                             C                     F                         G 
And it's straight I will repair to the Curragh of Kildare,
                       C                           F                         G 
for it's there I'll find tidings of my dear.
                       G7                             C                     F                         G 
And it's straight I will repair to the Curragh of Kildare,
                       C                           F                         G 
for it's there I'll find tidings of my dear.
