   G                C      G         D

By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young girl calling G C G D Michael, they have taken you away G C G D For you stole Trevelyan’s corn, so the young might see the morn G C G D Now a prison ship lies waiting in the bay

   G                C      G         D

Low lie the fields of Athenry, where once we watched the small free birds fly G C G D Our love was on the wing, we had dreams and songs to sing G C G D It’s so lonely ‘round the fields of Athenry
