Vorspiel
| G |
| G | C | Em | D |
As we gather in the chapel here in old Kilmainham jail
| C | G | Am | D |
I think about these past few weeks, oh will they say we failed
| G | C | Em | D |
From our school days they have told us we must yearn for liberty
| C | G | Em | D | G |
Yet all I want in this dark place is to have you here with me
Chorus
| G | C | Em | D |
Oh Grace, just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger
| G | C | Em | D |
They take me out at dawn and I will die
| G | C | Em | D |
With all my love I place this wedding ring upon your finger
| G | C | Em | D |
There won’t be time to share our love so we must say goodbye
Zwischenspiel Akkordeon
Now I know it’s hard for you my love to ever understand
The love I bear for these brave men, my love for this brave land
But when Padraic called me to his side down in the G.P.O.
I had to leave my own sick bed, to him I had to go
Chorus
Now as the dawn is breaking my heart is breaking too
As I walk out on this May morn my thoughts will be of you
And I’ll write some words upon the wall so everyone will know
I loved so much that I could see his blood upon the rose
Chorus
| G | C | Em | D |
Oh Grace, just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger
| G | C | Em | D |
They take me out at dawn and I will die
| G | C | Em | D |
With all my love I place this wedding ring upon your finger
| G | C | Em | D | :/. 2x |
There won’t be time to share our love so we must say goodbye
