[Strophe1:]

By a lonel[D#5]y prison wall,

[G#5]I heard a young girl [D#5]calli[B5]ng

M[D#5]ichael, they have t[G#5]aken you aw[B5]ay,

For you [D#5]stole Trevelyans c[G#5]orn,

So the [D#5]young might see the [B5]morn.

Now a prison ship lies waiting in the [D#5]bay.

[Refrain:]

[D#5]Low [G#5]lie the f[D#5]ields of A[C5]thenry.

[D#5]Where once we watched the s[C5]mall free birds [B5]fly.

Our l[D#5]ove was on the w[G#5]ing,

[D#5]we had dreams and songs to s[B5]ing

Its so lonely round the fields of At[D#5]henry

[Strohe 2:]

By a lonely prison wall, I heard a young man calling
Nothing matters, Mary, when youre free!
Against the famine and the crown,
I rebelled, thy cut me down.
Now you must raise our child with dignity.

[Refrain:]

[Strohe 3:]

By a lonely harbor wall, she watched the last star falling.
As the prison ship sailed out against the sky
Sure shell wait and hope , for her love in Botany Bay
Its so lonely round the fields of Athenry

[Refrain:]
