| Though I have travelled many lands, |
| A | D | D7 |
| To far | off Aust | ralian | sands |
| G | D |
| My | thoughts turn to | Eirn |
| E7 | A |
| When my | day's toil is | done |
| D |
| I | travelled Great Britain Ore |
| A | D | D7 |
| I'm now | on Col | umbia's | shore |
| G | D |
| The | birth place of | freedom |
| A | G | D |
| And the | famed | Washing | ton |
Cho.
| A | D |
| Scenes of splender | I have met |
| A | D |
| Amoung them | all I | can't forget |
| A | D |
| A vine | covered | cottage |
| E7 | A |
| With | roses quiet | rare |
| D |
| It | stands on the plesent vale |
| A | D | D7 |
| For o're the | sea in | Irish | fail |
| G | D |
| The | home of my | childhood |
| A | G | D |
| My | sweet | County | Clare. |
I love my country through and through
It's round towers and Abbeys I love and revere
I've heard all her stories, of her famed views and glories
From the groves of Tir Connell to the coast of Cape Clear
And deep in each exile's heart, are thoughts too scared to impact
Concerning my childhooh and playmates so fair
Let nobody blame me, let no treaty defame me
When I speak of my birthplace, in my sweet County Clare
