Flower Of Sweet Strabane Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

Bm A Bm

If BmI were King of AIreland's Isle and had all things at my Bmwill

I'd roam for recreAation and I'd seek for comfort Bmstill

The comfort I would Aask for, so that you may underBmstand

Is to win the heart of AMartha, the Flower of Sweet StraBmbane

Her Bmcheeks they are a Aruby red, her hair a lovely Bmbrown

And o'er her milk white Ashoulders it carelessly hangs Bmdown

She is the fairest Acreature and the pride of all her Bmclan

And my heart is captiAvated by the flower of Sweet StraBmbane

Well BmI've been in the APhoenix Park and in Killarney Bmfair

The lovely glens of AAntrim and the winding banks of BmClare

In all my earthly Atravels I never yet met Bmone

That could compare, I do deAclare, with the Flower of Sweet StraBmbane

But Bmsince I cannot Again her love, no joy there is for Bmme

And I must seek forAgetfulness in lands across the Bmsea

Unless she cares to Afollow me, I swear by my right Bmhand

McKenna's face you'll Ane'er more see, my Flower of Sweet StraBmbane

So its Bmfarewell to sweet ADerry Quay, New Mills and WaterBmside

I'll sail out o'er the Aocean, whatever may beBmtide

I'll sail away from ADerry Quay out by the Isle of BmMan

And I'll bid farewell to AMartha, the Flower of Sweet StraBmbane
