The Clancy Brothers And Tommy Makem - The Croppy Boy Ukulele Ukulele Chords
G C
‘Twas early early in the spring
Am D7 G
The birds did whistle and sweetly sing
C G
Changing their notes from tree to tree
Am D7 G
And the song they sang was Old Ireland free.
G C
‘Twas early early in the night
Am D7 G
The Yeoman cavalry gave me a fright
C G
The yeoman cavalry was my downfall
Am D7 G
and taken was I by Lord Cornwall.
G C
As I was walking up Wexford Hill
Am D7 G
Who would blame me to cry my fill?
C G
I looked behind, and I looked before
Am D7 G
But my aged mother I shall see no more.
G C
As I was walking' up Wexford Street
Am D7 G
My own first cousin I chanced to meet;
C G
My own first cousin did me betray
Am D7 G
And for one bare guinea sold life away
G C
And as I mounted the platform high
Am D7 G
My aged father was standing by;
C G
My aged father did me deny
Am D7 G
And the name he gave me was the Croppy Boy.
G C
It was in Dungannon this young man died
Am D7 G
And in Dungannon his body lies
C G
And you good people that do pass by
Am D7 G
Oh shed a tear for the Croppy Boy.
