Dervish – Grainne chords

    AmThis shall not be the life for you, my dear and lovely daughter
                                       EmI will not lose the luck and risk another to the sea
      AmMy mother I must break your heart, for I must follow father
                             FI'm destined for a caravan and galley
     G              AmAn O’Malley I be

     AmReturn and none a friend you win from gold and Barcelona
                                            EmFrom out the fog the pirates came and nearly always lost
       AmAnd would they, too, except for the red dagger of young Grainne
                                    FWho screamed above the fray with sailors’ rally
      G          AmAn O’Malley I be

  AmI met a shield and needle fine, I’ll be of gentle hand
                          EmBut I will owe me soul to nary a man
    AmAnd I will wear a Spanish silver broach upon me breast
                               FAnd dance the fusilage in peaks and valleys

     G              AmAn O’Malley I be

AmDonal I have married you and bore your children gladly
                                           EmBut you did die of Joyces and leave me nought to do
       AmBut safe the marriage hand of some and yeah, I treat you badly,
                                   FBut he knows the sea will be my home for family
     G              AmAn O’Malley I be

  AmI met a shield and needle fine, I’ll be of gentle hand
                          EmBut I will owe me soul to nary a man
       AmAnd I will wear a Spanish silver broach upon me breast
                              FAnd dance the fusilage in peaks and valleys
      G          AmAn O’Malley I be

         AmWith edgin' eyes horizon-borne were they in castles grand
                          EmStill I will owe me soul to nary a man
       AmAnd it will ring in decks and sing in riggins when I'm gone

                        FA pirate bringing charges in to tally
     G              AmAn O’Malley I be

                              FAnd dance the fusilage in peaks and valleys
     G              AmAn O’Malley I be
