ISLE OF INNISFREE

When (D7)all the(G7) things he loves are far(C) away.
And(G7) precious(C) things are dreams unto an(G7) exile
They take o're the land (Dm)across the(C) sea,
Es(G7)pecially (C)when it happens he's an (F)exile
(D7)From that dear (G7)lovely Isle of Innis(C)free.
And when the (F)moonlight peeps across the (C)rooftops
Of this great (D7)city wondrous though it may (G7)be,
I scarcely (C)feel it's wonder or it's(F) laughter
I'm once (G7)again back home in Innis(C)free.

But though they pave the footways here with(F) gold-dust
I still (G7)would choose my Isle of Innis(C)free.
