CAPO: 1st Fret
[VERSE 1:]
C F G C
In the land of O'Cahan, where bleak mountains rise
N.C. C F G
O'er those brown ridgy tops now, the dusky clouds fly
N.C. C F G
Deep sunk in a valley, a wild flower did grow
N.C. C F G C
And her name was Finola, the Gem of the Roe
[VERSE 2:]
F G C
From the Isles of Abunde, appeared to our view
F G
A youth clad in tartan, it's strange but it's true
C F G
With the stars on his breast and unstrung was his bow
C F G C
And he sighed for Finola, the Gem of the Roe
[CHORUS:]
The Gem of the Roe
G
The Gem of the Roe
C F
And he sighed for Finola
G C
The Gem of the Roe
[VERSE 3:]
F G C
To the grey shores of Alba, his bride he did bear
F G
But short were the fond years these lovers did share
C F G
For thrice on that hillside, the Banshee cried low
C F G C
Twas the death of Finola, the Gem of the Roe
[CHORUS:]
The Gem of the Roe
