No Capo
G G7 C Am D D7 G D7
I've met some Gfolks who G7say that I'm a Cdreamer Am
And I've no Ddoubt, there's D7truth in what they Gsay D7
But sure a Gbody's G7bound to be a Cdreamer Am
When all the Dthings he D7loves are far Gaway D7
And precious Gthings are G7dreams unto an Cexile Am
They take him Do'er the D7land across the Gsea D7
Especially Gwhen it G7happens he's an Cexile Am
From that dear Dlovely D7Isle of InnisGfree G7
And when the Cmoonlight Cpeeps across the Grooftops G
Of this great Acity, A7wondrous tho' it Dbe D7
I scarcely Gfeel its G7wonder or its Claughter Am
I'm once Dagain, back D7home in InnisGfree D7
G G7 C Am D D7 G D7
G G7 C Am D D7 G D7
I wander Go'er green G7hills, through dreamy Cvalleys Am
And find a Dpeace no D7other land could Gknow D7
I hear the Gbirds make G7music fit for Cangels Am
And watch the Drivers D7laughing as they Gflow D7
And then inGto a G7humble shack I Cwander Am
My dear old Dhome, I D7tenderly beGhold D7
The folks I Glove, aG7round the turf-fire, Cgathered Am
On bended Dknee the D7rosary is Gtold G7
But dreams don't Clast, though Cdreams are not forGgotten G
And soon I'm Aback to A7stern realiDty D7
But though they Gpave the Gfootpaths here with Cgold-dust Am
I still would Dchoose my D7Isle of InnisGfree D7
I scarcely Gfeel its G7wonder or its Claughter Am
I'm once Dagain, back D7home in InnisGfree G7
I still would Dchoose my D7Isle of InnisGfree C G
