The Willows - Maid of Culmore
nd Fret
Intro: Am G C/G F
Am G C/G F
Leaving sweet lovely Derry for fair London town
C/G G Am F G Am Em
There is no finer harbour all around can be found
C/G G Am F G Am Em
Where the youngsters each evening go down to the shore
Am G C/G F
And the joy bells are ringing for the maid of Culmore
Am G C/G F
The first time I saw her, she passed me by
C/G G Am F G Am Em
And the next time I saw her, she bid me goodbye
C/G G Am F G Am Em
And the last time I saw her, it grieved my heart sore
Am G C/G F
For she sailed out of Ireland, away from Culmore
Am G C/G F
If I had the power the storms for to rise
C/G G Am F G Am Em
I would make the wind blow out and I'd darken the skies
C/G G Am F G Am Em
I'd make the wind blow high and the salt seas to roar
Am G C/G F
'Til the day that my darling sailed away from Culmore
