God Save Ireland

		     G                               C               G
Verse 1:	         High upon the gallows tree swung the noble hearted three
		                                         D
		By the vengeful tyrant stricken in their bloom
		         G                             C              G
		But they met him face to face with the courage of the race
                                               D                G
		And they went with souls undaunted to their doom


                   G
Chorus:           God Save Ireland, said the heroes
                   D        G                 D7
                  God save Ireland, said they all
                           G                           C              G
		Whether on the scaffold high or the battlefield we die
                                           D               G
		Oh what matters if for Ireland dear we fall


Verse 2:	Girt around with cruel foes, still their courage proudly rose
		For they thought of hearts that loved them far and near
		Of the millions true and brave o'er the oceans swelling wave
		And the friends of holy Ireland ever dear.

Chorus:

Verse 3:	Climbed they up the ragged stair, rang their voices out in prayer
		The with England's fatal cord around them cast
		Close beside the gallows tree, kissed like brothers lovingly
		True to home and faith and freedom to the last

Chorus:

Verse 4:	Never till the latest day shall the memory pass away
		Oh, the gallant lives thus given for their land
		But on the cause must go amid joy or weal or woe
		Till we make our land a nation free and grand
