Chord,Tablature, lyric, sheet, guitar, ukulele song: Ireland - ( It seemed like everything we he[C]ard and hoped might be ...)

--
It seemed like everything we he[C]ard and hoped might be true[G][Am]
We got a [C]ride right away and she took us to the [Am]dune[F]s

And [Am]we fell as[G]leep to the [C]sounds of a carnival
From a [Am]village [G]further down the [C]beach
We [Am]woke up the next [G]morning on a [C]bed of tiny [Am]flowers,
Packed the [C]tent and went to [G]get somethin' to [C]eat

We bought a [Am]cheap jar of peanut butter and a [C]loaf of fresh white bread,
We made [Am]sandwiches on the beach; life doesn't [F]get any better than [G]this

We [C]walked in for free to the first [G]castle that we [Am]found
It was [C]empty, it was late, it be[G]came our camp[Am]gro[F]und
And we [Am]spotted a [G]tent and we [C]met another [F]camper
And he [Am]told us [G]his sad [C]story--
Well [Am]he had been [G]dumped by a [C]girl that he [F]loved, but he [Am]told us [G]not to [C]worry

You can [Am]camp anywhere, no one's gonna care; why [C]would they?
"It's not [Am]like this at home," we told him, "you know"
He said your [F]home's so far [G]away

[C]We went west all the way 'til the [G]land ran [Am]out
We slept [C]at an empty house in the [G]middle of a tiny [Am]town[F]
We met a [Am]man at a [G]crossroads who [C]said it was his [F]dream to [Am]someday [G]come to Blooming[C]ton
[Am]We thought it was [G]funny because [C]for you and [F]me, it was our [Am]dream to be [G]here in Ire[C]land

[Am]He was a big fan of John Melloncamp;
we [C]told him everything we knew about him
We [Am]invited him to come and stay at our house;
when we [F]got to our stop he didn't [G]want us to get out
[C] [F][Am]

We stayed the night at the house of a guy from Albany
He was [C]glad to meet Americans; he made us spaghe[Am]tti[F]

And [Am]we met a [G]man who [C]said he was a [F]doctor and he [Am]took us on [G]some of his [C]house calls
He [Am]taught us the [G]best way to get a [C]donkey to [F]come to you
is not to [Am]pay them any [C]attention at [F]all

And I [Am]crawled to the edge and peeked over my head and [C]looked down to the sea
It was [Am]two thousand feet to the water below; it [F]looked so blue, it [G]looked so deep

And don't [C]ever let 'em [F]tell you that it [Am]rains in Ire[C]land
[C]Well if they tell you [F]that you can be [G]sure they've never [C]been
'Cause the [C]sun is always [F]shinin' and the [Am]hills are always [C]green
And the [C]people are always [F]smilin' and [G]offerin' you [C]drinks

[G] [-] [Am] [-] [G]
We'd [C]set up our tent on the cliffs right by the [Am]sea
Almost [C]every night and the waves rocked us to [Am]slee[F]p

A [Am]postman from [G]Wales and his [C]friend from [F]England
Bought us [Am]fries at the [G]westernmost [C]pub
[Am]We sat with [G]them and two [C]others we'd [F]met
And we all [Am]watched the [G]postman get [C]drunk

And at [Am]first the Burren might seem like a [C]waste land of broken stones
[Am]Look in the cracks and you'll see there's a [F]secret there that [G]grows
And [C]Galway City really [G]feels a lot like [Am]home
We went[C] through Conn[G]emara and up to S[Am]lig[F]o

And [Am]at the Slieve [G]League we couldn't [C]see [F]anything;
We dec[Am]ided that [G]we should turn [C]back
The [Am]mist was so [G]thick that we [C]couldn't find our [F]feet
And the [Am]trail was called [G]Deadman's [C]Pass

[Am]On one side it was three thousand feet down to the [C]ocean
[Am]The other was two thousand feet to the ground
And [F]anyway our time was [G]running out

And [C]we crossed the country in [G]less than a [Am]day
Our [C]last ride to Dublin [G]asked us the same [Am]thing[F]s

They [Am]asked if we [G]had any [C]kin from [F]Ireland;
They were [Am]surprised when [G]we said [C]no
When I [Am]said I didn't [G]drink and hadn't [C]tried Guinness [F]yet
They were the [Am]first ones to [G]say, "way to [C]go"

And [Am]as our ferry was leaving the [C]Emerald Isle behind
We were [Am]already making our plans [F]to come back some[G]time

And don't[C] ever let 'em [F]tell you that it [Am]rains in Ire[C]land
Well [C]if they tell you [F]that you can be [G]sure they've never [C]been
'Cause the [C]sun is always [F]shinin' and the [Am]hills are always [C]green
And [C]people are always [F]smilin' and [G]offerin' you [C]drinks
