Garth Brooks - Ireland







Intro - A




(verse 1)
A  
They say Mother Earth is breathing,

With each wave that finds the shore,

Her soul rises in the evening,

For to open twilight's doors,
         F#m              A
Her eyes are the stars in heaven,
                         D
Watching o'er us all the while,
                       A      E
And her heart it is in Ireland,
                        Asus
Deep within the Emerald Isle,



(verse 2)
We were forty against hundreds,
In someone else's bloody war,
We know not why we're fighting,
Or what we're dying for,
They will storm us in the morning,
As the sunlight turns the sky,
Death is waiting for it's dance now,
Fate has sentenced us to die,



(chorus)
F#m      D           A
Ireland, I am coming home,
      D                A      
I can see your rolling fields of green,
    F#m            E 
And fences made of stone,
     F#m      A                 
I am reaching out, 
          D       A  
won't you take my hand,
           F#m   D  E  A
I'm coming home, Ireland,



(verse 3)
Oh the captain he lay bleeding,
And I can hear him calling me,
These men are yours now for the leading,
Show them to their destiny,
And as I looked up all around me,
I see the ragged tired and torn,
I tell them to make ready,
Cause we're not waiting for the morn,



(chorus)
F#m      D           A
Ireland, I am coming home,
      D                A      
I can see your rolling fields of green,
    F#m            E 
And fences made of stone,
     F#m      A                 
I am reaching out, 
          D       A  
won't you take my hand,
           F#m   D  E  A
I'm coming home, Ireland,



(verse 4)
Now the fog is deep and heavy,
As we forge the dark and fear,
We can hear their horses breathing,
As in silence we draw near,
And there are no words to be spoken,
Just a look to say goodbye,
I draw a breath and night is broken,
As I scream our battle cry,




(chorus)
F#m      D           A
Ireland, I am coming home,
      D                A      
I can see your rolling fields of green,
    F#m            E 
And fences made of stone,
     F#m      A                 
I am reaching out, 
          D       A  
won't you take my hand,
           F#m   D  E  A
I'm coming home, Ireland,
         F#m   D  E  A           
Yes I am home, Ireland,
