An Cat Dubh - Down By The Glenside lyrics

D C F a 4Twas down by the glenside I met an old woman D C F a Aplucking young nettles, she ne4er saw me coming D F C I listened a while to the song she was humming D a B C d Glory-oh, glory-oh to the bold Fenian men 4Tis fifty long years since I saw the moon beaming On strong manly forms, their eyes with hope gleaming I see them again through all my sad dreaming Glory-oh, glory-oh to the bold Fenian men When I was a young boy their marching and drilling Awoke in the glenside, sound awesome and thrilling They stood by old Ireland and to die they were willing Glory-oh, glory-oh to the bold Fenian men Some died by the glenside, some died with the stranger And wise men have told us their cause was a failure But they stood by old Ireland and never feared danger Glory-oh, glory-oh to the bold Fenian men I pa**ed on my way, God be praised that I met her Be life long or short I will never forget her We may have brave men, but we4ll never have better Glory-oh, glory-oh to the bold Fenian men
