N.C.
Oh the green and red of mayo,
N.C.
I can see it still,
N.C.
It's soft and craggy boglands,
N.C.
It's tall magestic hills,
G
Where the ocean kisses Ireland,
C
The waves caress it's shore
G
The feelin' it came over me,
C
To stay for ever more,
G
For ever more,

G
From it's rolling costal waters
C
I can see Croagh Patrick's peak,
G
where one sunday every summer,
C
the pilgrims climb the reek
G
where St. Patrick in it's solitude,
C
looks out across Clew bay,
G
and with the ringin' of his bell
C
Called the faithful there to pray,
G
there to pray,

[Verse 3]
(Chords as verse 2)
Take me to Clare island,
The home of Granuaile,
It's waters harbour fishes,
From the herring to the whale,
And now I must depart it,
And reality is plain,
May the time not pass so slowly,
Till I set sail again,
Set sail again,
