Verse:
      G               C           G
I was dreaming of old Ireland and Killarney's lakes and fells,
      C               G                Am               D
I was dreaming of the shamrock and the dear old Shandon bells,
        G          C          G                 G7
When my memory suggested in a vision bright and clear,
        C                         G            D               G
All the strange things that would happen if we had old Ireland here.


Refrein:
       G                   C             G
If the Blarney stone stood out on Sydney harbour,
    C                                G
And Dublin town to Melbourne came to stay,
                     C                   G
If the Shannon River joined the Brisbane Waters,
        Am                               D
And Killarney's lakes flowed into Botany Bay,
       G                  C              G
If the Shandon bells rang out in old Freemantle,
    C                             G
And County Cork at Adelaide did appear,
       Em                             G
Erin's sons would never roam, all the boys would stay at home,
                   D            G      D#
If we only had old Ireland over here.


Modulatie: G#


          G#             C#              G#
There are lots of lovely lassies dancing on the village green,
          C#             G#            A#m         D#
There are lots of lovely colleens, the finest ever seen,
          G#                  C#            G#                 G#7
Where the boys are all called Paddy and the girls called Molly dear,
          C#                   G#               D#              G#
Sure we'd wrap the green flag 'round them if we had old Ireland here.

If we only had old Ireland over here.
