Generations
(© 2010 Jim "Carbomb" Parkinson)
G D C G
They farmed in the fields and they worked in the factories
C G D
Surviving the cold and the rain
G D C G
They built the great land that they call Emerald Isle
C D G
Amidst all the hardships and pain
C D G
They came from the fields and the cities
C D Em
With their strength and their souls and their minds
C G D Em
And they sang and they danced to the tunes of old Ireland
C D G
So they never would leave them behind

They left from the docks all aboard sailing ships

To the strains of American Wakes

Once through Ellis Island they started the trip

With a dream of a new life to make

They came from the fields and the cities

With their strength and their souls and their minds

And they sang and they danced to the tunes of old Ireland

So they never would leave them behind

They work different jobs and they still raise their families

Surviving the changes and times

They gather in places to share in the music

And sing with the tunes and the rhymes

They came from the fields and the cities

With their strength and their souls and their minds

And they sang and they danced to the tunes of old Ireland

So they never would leave them behind

We come from the suburbs and cities

With our strength and our souls and our minds

And we sing and we dance to the tunes of old Ireland

So we never will leave them behind.
