Version 1
            [Intro]
A A7 D Dm
A E7 A A
[Verse 1]
         A        A7                   D        Dm
Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
             A                          E    E7
From glen to glen and down the mountainside
             A        A7            D        Dm
The summer's gone and all the roses falling
               A        E7            A
It's you, It's you must go and I must bide
[Chorus 1]
             A        D               A       F#m
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
            A        D                     E     E7
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
        A       D              A       F#m
I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
         A             E7              A
Oh Danny Boy, oh Danny Boy, I love you so
[Verse 2]
           A         A7                 D      Dm
But if you come and all the flowers are dying
         A                     E     E7
And I am dead, and dead I well may be
                A        A7               D      Dm
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
              A      E7            A
And kneel and say an Ave there for me
[Chorus 2]
           A         D               A        F#m
And I will know tho' soft you tread above me
           A          D              E   E7
And all my grave will richer sweeter be
                A        D                A       F#m
And you'll bend down and tell me that you love me
           A               E7              A
And I will rest in peace until you come to me
[Outro]
A E7 A
