Christy Moore guitar chords  - Follow Me Up To Carlow

FOLLOW ME UP TO CARLOW		TRAD

 Dm						C
Lift Mac Cahir Og your face, broodin' o'er the old disgrace
     Dm						      C       Dm
That black Fitzwilliam stormed your place & drove you to the fern
Dm						C
Gray said victory was sure, soon the firebrand he'd secure
Dm				 Dm	C	Dm
Until he met at Glenmalure with Fiach McHugh O'Byrne

Chorus
Am				C
Curse and swear, Lord Kildare, Fiach will do what Fiach will dare
Am				C	      Dm
Now Fitzwilliam, have a care, fallen is your star low
Am				C
Up with halberd, out with sword, on we go for, by the Lord
Am				C		 Dm
Fiach McHugh has given the word "Follow me up to Carlow"

See the swords at Glen Imaal, flashin' o'er the english pale
See all the children of the Gael, beneath O'Byrne's banner
Rooster of a fighting stock, would you let a Saxon cock
Crow out upon an Irish Rock, fly up and teach him manners

Chorus

From Tassagart to Clonmore, flows a stream of Saxon gore
How great is Rory Og O'Moore at sending loons to Hades
White is sick, Gray is fled, now for black Fitzwilliam's head
We'll send it over, dripping red, to Liza and her ladies

Chorus
