Biography:
The Wolfe Tones is an Irish rebel music band that incorporates elements of Irish traditional music. Formed in 1963, their most recognizable line-up that lasted for nearly 37 years until January 2001 was brothers Brian Warfield and Derek Warfield, and Noel Nagle, and Tommy Byrne. The band take its name from the Irish rebel and patriot Theobald Wolfe Tone, one of the leaders of the Irish Rebellion of 1798, with the double entendre of a wolf tone – a spurious sound that can affect instruments of the violin family.

G D G C D G
Now the Autumn leaves are falling and the tourists have all gone
C D
And the children they have all gone back to school
G D G
And my life is as it was before
C D G C D
I work eight hours a day but the company's still making all the rules
C D G C D G
There's a girl in Massachusetts south of Boston town she said
C D
And her lovely face is with me all the day
G D G C D G
But I met her down in old Tralee , golden hair upon her head
D G
Well I took her heart and she stole mine away
(Chorus)
G D G C D G
Goodbye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C D
I'll wait for you I'll think of you no threat to you I'll pose
G D G C D G
Good bye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C G D G C G
I wish that you were here but I know thats the way life goes
G D G C D G
Theres a song we sang all summer in the bars of Dublin town
C D
I can here it on the factory radio
G D G C D G
And the feeling I remember when I here that simple tune
C D
Make me wonder if it really happened so
C D G C D G
For we laughed and loved together 'till the summer days were gone
D G C G
And she had to fly across the ocean wide
D G
Well, goodbye my Boston beauty
C D G
Until we meet again
D G C G
And I'll keep the fire burning deep inside
(Chorus)
G D G C D G
Goodbye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C D
I'll wait for you I'll think of you no threat to you I'll pose
G D G C D G
Good bye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C G D G C G
I wish that you were here but I know that's the way life goes
Sad Verse
G D G G D G
And some nights when im drinking and my friends have gathered 'round
C D
And just for fun someone calls out your name
G D G C D G
Well I smile there with the rest of them but I cant hear a sound
C D
I love you but to them it's all the same
C G C D G
At nights when im alone my love you come into my mind
G
And visions flash upon the Emerald Isle
C D G C D G
Well I watch the moon there up above I'll leave this earth behind
D G C G
And I'll call to you as I go sailing by
(Chorus)

Goodbye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
