Changing their notes from Ftree to Ctree
And the Dmsong they Gsang was Old FIreland CFree

N.C.It was early, Cearly all Fin the night
The Yeoman Dmcavalry gave Gme a frightC
The yeoman cavalry were Fmy downCfall
I was taken Dmprisoner by GLord CornFwall C
[INTERLUDE]

N.C.As I was Cwalking up Wexford FStreet
My Dmown first cousin I Gchanced to Cmeet
My own first cousin did Fme beCtray
And for Dmone bare Gguinea sold my Flife aCway
[VERSE 4]
N.C.And as I was Cwalking up Wexford FHill
Oh, Dmwho could blame me to Gcry my fillC?

But my tender Dmmother GI could Fsee no Cmore
[INTERLUDE:] C F G
