GUEST,Billy Boy in France Chord Req: For Ireland I'd not tell her name (5) Chord Req: For Ireland I'd not tell her name 04 Jan 05


looking for Guitar chords (preferable easy ones!!) for the following:
I'll gladly buy a drinkie for the compadre that comes up with the magic! Go raibh maith agat!

For Ireland I'd not tell her name
(Ar Eirinn Ni Neosfainn Ce Hi)

Last eve as I wandered quite near,
To the borders of my little farm.
A beautiful maiden appeared,
Whose loveliness caused my hearts harm.
By her bearing and look smitten sore,
And the words from her sweet lips that came.
To meet her I raced the field o'er,
But for Ireland I'd not tell her name.


If this beauty but my words would heed,
The words that I'd speak would be true.
I'd help her in every need,
And indeed all her work I would do.
To win one fond kiss from my love,
I'd read her romances of fame.
Her champion I daily would prove,
But for Ireland I'd not tell her name

There's a beautiful stately young maid,
At the nearing of my little farm.
She is welcoming, kind, unafraid,
Her smile is both childlike and warm.
Her gold hair in masses that grows,
Like amber in sheen is the same.
And the bloom in her cheeks like the rose,
But for Ireland I'd not tell her name.
