Verse:
C F G
As we gathered in the chapel here in old Kilmainham jail
F C Dm G
I think about these past few weeks, Oh will they say we failed
C F G
From our school days they have told us we must yearn for liberty
F C G C
Yet all I want in this dark place is to have you here with me.
Chorus:
G F C
Oh Grace just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger
F C G
They'll take me out at dawn and I will die
G F C
With all my love I'll place this wedding ring upon your finger
F C G C
There wont be time to share our love so we must say goodbye.
Verse:
C F G
Now I know it's hard for you my love to ever understand
F C Dm G
The love I'll bare for these great men, my love for this dear land
C F G
But when Pádraic called me to his side down in the GPO
F C G C
I had to leave my own sick bed, to him I had to go
Chorus:
G F C
Oh Grace just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger
F C G
They'll take me out at dawn and I will die
G F C
With all my love I'll place this wedding ring upon your finger
F C G C
There wont be time to share our love so we must say goodbye.
Verse:
C F G
Now as the dawn is breaking, my heart is breaking too
F C Dm G
On this May morn as I walk out, my thoughts will be with you

And I'll write some words upon the wall so everyone will know
F C G C
I loved so much that I could see his blood upon the rose.
Chorus:
G F C
Oh Grace just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger
F C G
They'll take me out at dawn and I will die
G F C
With all my love I'll place this wedding ring upon your finger

There wont be time to share our love so we must say goodbye

Now There wont be time to share our love so we must say goodbye.
Thank you, all comments welcome at my UG account Garizard1.
+4 is easier.
In the chorus I like to use:
Em
Tonight give me everything
instead of:
G D
Tonight give me everything
and in the pre-chorus I like to use:
Em C G D
If I could tonight and maybe Imma make you feel
instead of:
Em D G D
If I could tonight and maybe Imma make you feel
It’s not -4 that’s easier; it’s -3. Put the capo on fret 3
