G                                  C              D    
As we gather in the chapel here in old Kilmainham Jail 
  C                G                  Am                  D      
I think a-bout the last few weeks: Oh will they say we've failed 
         G                                    C               D  
From our schooldays they have told us we must yearn for liber-ty 
    C             G         Em          D                  G              
Yet all I want in this dark place is to have you here with me 2 3 4 1 2 3 
        
Chorus: 
   D                                   C               G      
Oh Grace just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger 
     C              G               D               
They take me out at dawn and I will die 2 3 4 1 2 3 
     D                                C              G      
With all my love I place this wedding ring upon your finger 
      C                G         Em       D                G               
There won't be time to share our love for we must say good-bye 2 3 4 1 2 3 
G                                         C          D     
Now I know it's hard for you, my love, to ever under-stand 
    C               G                   Am                 D    
The love I bear for these brave men, my love for this dear land 
         G                                  C             
But when Padraic called me to his side down in the G.P.O. 
  C               G        Em      D            G              
I had to leave my own sick bed, to him I had to go 2 3 4 1 2 3 
       
Chorus 
   D                                   C               G

     C              G               D

G                               C                 D   
Now as the dawn is breaking, my heart is breaking too 
   C                       G      Am                  D   
On this May morn as I walk out my thoughts will be of you 
         G                                  C             D    
And I'll write some words upon the walls so everyone will know 
  C                      G       Em      D              G                
I loved you so much that I could see his blood upon the rose 2 3 4 1 2 3
