[A] [A] [D] [D]
Verse 1
 
By a l[D]onely prison [G]wall, I h[D]eard a young girl [A]calling
[D]Michael, they have[G] taken you a[A]way
For you [D]stole Trevelyan'[G]s corn so the [D]young might see [A]the morn'
Now a [A]prison ship lies waiting in the b[D]ay
 
 
Chorus
[D]Low lie [G]the fields[D] of Athenr[Bm]y
where [D]once we watched the small free bird[A]s fly
Our [D]love was on the[G] wing
We had[D] dreams and songs to [A]sing
It's so[A] lonely round the[A7] fields of At[D]henry
 
 
 
Verse 2
By a[D] lonely prison[G] wall, I hea[D]rd a young man [A]calling
Nothi[D]ng matters, Ma[G]ry, when you'r[A]e free
Again[D]st the famine[G] and the crown, I[D] rebelled, they cut me d[A]own
Now [A]you must raise our child with[D] dignity
 
 
Chorus
[D]Low lie [G]the fields[D] of Athenr[Bm]y
where [D]once we watched the small free bird[A]s fly
Our [D]love was on the[G] wing
We had[D] dreams and songs to [A]sing
It's so[A] lonely round the[A7] fields of At[D]henry
 
 
Verse 3
By a [D]lonely harbor [G]wall, she wat[D]ched the last star f[A]alling
As the [D]prison ship sail[G]ed out against the[A] sky
For she'd [D]live in hope[G] and pray for[D] her love in Bo[A]tany Bay
It's so [A]lonely round the fields of A[D]thenry
 
 
Chorus
[D]Low lie [G]the fields[D] of Athenr[Bm]y

It's so[A] lonely round the[A7] fields of At[D]henry
