                                    I'm a liberty boy that I'll never deny

To the one who’s is waiting for me there

Home again to Dublin's city

 D                  A              G    D
Oh how I'm longing to be there

         D                 /                     G                 D       
I've seen all the sights of this great world delights

              /                /                    A    /
And I sailed from Vancouver to Dover

         D                /                  G                  D
I've hunted the whale and weathered the gale

                D         A               G    D
Now my roving days are all ov – er

 

          A                              /                     D                 /
For I miss Moore Street smell and the auld Liffey swell

                G                    D                  Em        A7
And the pigeon house lights in the even – ing

         D                  /                            G                    D
On Sandymount strand where we walked hand in hand

                  D                          A                    G     D
And we watched while the mail boat was lea – ving
