[Verse]
D Dmaj7 D7 G Abdim7
Oh, Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
D E7/Ab A7 A
From glen to glen and down the mountainside
Dmaj7 D7 G E7/Ab
The summer's gone and all the roses falling
F#m7 Bm7 Em7 A7 D A7
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bide
Bm7 Bm7/A A7 D Dsus4 D
But come ye back when summer's in the meadow
F#m7/C# Bm Bm7/A A7/G D7/F# E7 A7
Or when the valley's hushed and white with snow
D D7 G Abdim7 D Bbdim7
'Tis I'll be here in sunshine or in shadow
F#m7 B7 Em7 A7 D A/C# B7
Oh, Danny boy, oh Danny boy, we love you so
 
Emaj7 E7 Amaj7 Bbdim7
And when ye come and all the flowers are dying
C#m7 F#m7 Emaj7 C#m7 F#7 B7
And I am dead as dead as I well may be
Emaj7 E7 A Bbdim7
You'll come and find the place where I am lying
C#m7 C#7 F#m7 B7 E
And kneel and say Ave there for me
C#m7 C#m7/B B Emaj7 Amaj7 C#m7 F#7
And I shall hear, though soft you'll tread above me
Bbdim7b5 D#7 G#m7 C#7 F#7 F#m7
And on my grave will warmer, sweeter be
B7 G# Amaj7 Bbdim7 C#m7 C7
And ye shall bend and tell me that you love me
G#m7 C#m7 F#m7 B7 E
And I shall sleep in peace until you come to me
