the graveyard the birch has grown tall
G

Moss has crept high up
D
the old chapel wall

It's many a year now
C
D
that is the stone
C
D
G
C
Has fallen since I left my home
G
C
D
It's many years the year now
G
D
But still I recall
Every
G
Am
Saturday evening
C
The dance in the hall
D
G
The lasses were handsome
D
C
D
The lads were half tight
C
D
As we danced through the long
G
D
Em
summer's night
C
D
There was
G
D
Billy on clarinet,
C
D
Jack played the drum,
G
Em
C
Am
D
Peter the fiddler and his young son
Tom
Now
G
D
Tommy could whip up a
C
D
wind from the moor
C
D
That would rattle your old
G
C
G
cottage door
C
D
Blow out the light,
G
D
watch his finger -ends burn
G
Am
They said that he went to the
C
D
crossroads to learn
G
D
They said that the old lad
C
D
taught him his tunes
C
D
By the light of a dozen full
G
D
Em
D
moons
G
D
Now we were all lads in our
C
last year at school
D
C
G
C
Am
D
Playing a truant and playing a fool
G
D
Most of that springtime
C
D
we passed in a dream
C
D
G
C
At peace on the banks of the stream
G
C
The morning was green,
D
G
D
the morning was still
G
When a black gypsy cara
Am
D
C
D
van came up the hill
G
D
We lay in the long grass,
C
D
watched them amazed
C
D
As they put out their horses
G
D
Em
D
to graze
G
D
There seemed to be no
C
D
more than two in the van
G
D
C
Am
D
A girl in a cloak and a tall bearded man
G
D
And the girl's hair was black
C
D
as an old standing stone
C
D
G
C
G
But her skin was as white as a bow
C
She looked at
D
G
Tommy, he looked at her
D
G
Oh, she must have caused
Am
C
something inside him to stir
D
G
D
For he picked up his fiddle,
C
D
C
started to play a tune
D
G
D
Em
C
To change night into day
D
G
D
C
It's well, I remember the first day of
May
D
Em
G
C
The hall was crowded,
D
the dancers were gay
And
G
D
Tommy was up on the
C
D
stage with the rest
C
As they played the sun
D
G
down in the west
C
D
G
D
Blacker than midnight, still as the two
G
Am
The gypsies were there
C
D
at the end of the room
G
D
And then the young woman
C
stretched out her hand
D
C
D
G
And she slowly walked up to the band
D
The band were all silent,
C
not a man spoke
D
G
C
As she pulled out her fiddle
Am
from un der her
D
cloak
G
D
And the tune that she played
C
was the devil's
delight
D
C
D
G
C
A tune to change day into night
G
C
D
Like a ghost in a dream, young
G
D
Tommy joined in
G
Am
With a wave of her hand,
C
she beckoned to him
D
G
D
And she led him on down to
C
D
the end of the room
C
D
And out to the trees and
G
D
Em
the gloom
D
G
D
Next day, at the crossroads,
C
his fiddle was found
D
G
C
Splinters and wires on
Am
D
the grey mossy ground
G
D
Some said it was love had
borne him away
C
D
G
C
Others would rather not say
G
C
D
G
D
G
Am
The very same morning, I left that dark land I left them their sheep,
C
and I left them their band
D
G
D
I left them to follow
C
the city man's way
D
C
And I haven't been back
D
G
D
G
till this day
C
D
G
D
At the edge of the graveyard
C
D
the birch is growing tall
G
C
Moss has crept high up

the old chapel wall

It's many a year now,
G

C
