The band reached international prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s.

G Em C D G C D G

G C D
It was 1962, I was two years out of school
G C D
When I got on board a boat that was bound for Liverpool
G C D
The day we sailed away I remember it so well
G Em D G
Took a look at the North Wall and bid a fond farewell

G C G
It's a hard thing to leave the land of your childhood
Em C
Touched by the rivers and kissed by the sea
G D C G
The places you played with your childhood companions
C G D G
To leave dear old Ireland and Mother Mo Chro?

G C G
Though I'm going far away and I may never return here
Em C
There's one thing I always will keep within me
G D C G
Deep in my heart a furious devotion
C G D G
The love of old Ireland and Mother Mo Chroi

G C G D G Em C D
G Em C D G C D [drop final measure]

G C G D G Em C D
G Em C D G C D G

G C G
Though I'm going away and I may never return here
Em C
There is always one thing that I will keep within me
G D C G
Deep in my heart a furious devotion
C G D G
The love of old Ireland and Mother Mo Chroi

G C G D G Em C D
G Em C D G C D G

G C G
On the top of the Pentonville Road I saw the sun setting
Em C
The town laid out before me looked beautiful to me
G D C G
Away from all the sighing, the suffering and the dying
C G D G
I dreamed of the future, the young and the free

G C G
But the years they go by quickly, now I know I can't remain here
Em C
Where each day brings me closer to that final misery
G D C G
My kids will never scrape shit round here, and I won't die crying in a pint of beer
C G D G
I'm going back to Ireland and Mother Mo Chro?

G C G D G Em C D
G Em C D G C D [drop final measure]

G C G D G Em C D
G Em C D G C D G
