Back Home In Derry by Christy Moore
[Verse]
Am Em
In 1803 we sailed out to sea
G D Am
Out from the sweet town of Derry
Am Em
For Australia bound if we didn't all drown
G D Am
And the marks of our fetters we carried
Am Em
In our rusty iron chains we sighed for our weans
Am Em
Our good women we left in sorrow
Am Em
As the mainsails unfurled, our curses we hurled
G D Am
On the English, and thoughts of tomorrow
[Chorus]
C G Am G Am
Oh..Oh... I wish I was back home in Derry
C G Am G Am
Oh..Oh... I wish I was back home in Derry
