G                                                                                    D                      G  
Oh the big ship's a sailing far across the ocean
                          D7                                              D                 G  D  
Fare thee well lovely Annie I bid you a-dieu
                G                                            C                                         G  
And I cant return where small birds are nesting
        C                                 G                      D                            G  
Or take you dear Annie and make you my bride
Verse: 2
G                                                                                    D                              G  
You remember dear Annie when we walked on the mountain
                  D7                                              D              G                 D  
And we saw all those young men a marching away
        G                                 C                              G  
To fight for her country and free her from bondage
             C                                      G                 D                                                 G  
When I left you dear Annie I went with them that day
Verse: 3
G                                                                                      D                      G  
We fought hard through winter and many died bravely
                                                      D                                      G                 D  
And we thought of our loved ones, our country unfree
                  G                                                                 C                                    G  
And my heart nearly broke when I thought of the mountain
                C                                         G                              D                                 G  
Where I held you in my arms on that warm summer's day
Verse: 4
G                                                                                         D                 G  
But our names they were given by a Judas informer
          D7                                              D              G                              D  
I remember his face, he fought right beside me
                G                                                            C                              G  
I was given the assignment to kill him one evening
          C                                 G                            D                 G  
And bury his body in the deep flowing sea
Verse: 5
G                                                                 D              G  
So now you know Annie why I must leave you
          D7                                                            D                    G    D  
And why I can't take you and make you my bride
                G                                         C                         G  
For I am in danger and fear every stranger
        C                            G                    D                            G  
In village and city who walks by my side
Verse: 6
G                                                                    D                            G  
So come with me Annie once more to the mountain
             D7                                                              D         G              D  
And walk with me slowly to the ship by the sea
          G                                                         C                              G  
And let me carress you and kiss you and bless you
          C                                      G                      D                         G  
For ever and always you'll be dearest to me
Verse: 7
G                                                                      D                            G  
Farewell to my homeland, my parents and comrades
          D7                              D                    G                                 D  
The brave men who died and fought beside me
                  G                                 C                                 G  
To the mountains and valleys, the green fields of Erin
                     C                              G                                 D                    G  
May the young men of Ireland bring you liberty
