[Intro]
D G D A D

[Verse 1]
D G
Oh, the lambs were playing in the field
D A
And the tulips were in flower
D G
When I left the home that I love so well
D A D
I can never forget the hour
A G D
Before me was the Atlantic’s waves
A
To a home in Tennessee
D G
And I left behind me the girl I loved
D A D
She's the Rose of Castlerea

[Chorus]
D G
She may not have been a beauty queen
D A
She might never be a rose
D G
But to me she is the fairest flower
D A D
That in the garden grows
A G D
And although I’m in America
A
Across the Atlantic Sea
D G
Sure I'll always love my Roscommon girl
D A D
She’s the Rose of Castlerea

[Verse 2]
D G
It’s many the night that I lie in bed
D A
That my thoughts would from me go
D G
To the lovely days when I walked my love
D A D
On the road out by Knockroe
A G D
Her smiling face, her shining hair
A
Was a joy for all to see
D G
’Twas a cruel day that I went away
D A D
From you and Castlerea

[Chorus]
D G
She may not have been a beauty queen
D A
She might never be a rose
D G
But to me she is the fairest flower
