Repeat Chords of first verse
Verse
2
The time has
long gone past
We're getting no
where fast
They're taking
all the heat at Downing Street
Dublin's' Tachta Dail
Dublin's' Tachta Dail
It's time you
made your call
For freedom and
for justice one and all
Verse 3
I'm now far away
It's here I want
to stay
Because of all
that fear and disarray
I hope someday
there'll be a home for you and me
Back here in the
Isle of Innisfree
