[ C ] Oh Danny Boy, the pipes the pipes are [ F ] calling,
From glen to [ C ] glen and down the mountain [ G ] side.
The summer's [ C ] gone and all the roses [ F ] falling,
It's you it's [ C ] you, must [ G ] go and I must [ C ] bide.

But come you back, when [ F ] summer's in the [ C ] meadow,
Or when the valley's [ Am ] hushed and white with [ Dm ] snow.
[ G ] It's I'll be [ C ] here, in [ F ] sunshine or in [ C ] shadow,
Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny [ G ] Boy I love you [ C ] so.

[ C ] And if you come, when all the flowers are [ F ] dying, And I am [ C ] dead, as dead I well may [ G ] be.
You'll come and [ C ] find the place where I am [ F ] lying, And kneel and [ C ] say an [ G ] "Ave" there for [ C ] me.

And I shall hear, tho' [ F ] soft you tread a [ C ] bove me, And all my dreams will [ Am ] warm & sweeter [ Dm ] be.
[ G ] If you'll not [ C ] fail to [ F ] tell me that you [ C ] love me, I'll simply sleep in peace un [ G ] til you come to [ C ] me.
I'll simply sleep in peace un [ G ] til you come to [ C ] me.
