CLARE’S DRAGOONS chrom
18th C. Irish folk song
Key: G

-5 5 -4 -5  -5   6     7  -7   7
When on Ram-il-lies’ blood-y field
-5  -4   -5    -5    -8   8 -8  -7 7 6
The baf-fled French were forced to yield
-55 -4  -5  -5  6   7    -7    -8
The vic-tor Sax-on back-ward reeled
8   -8   7    6    8    -8    -7    7
Be-fore the charge of Clare’s dra-goons
-7   -8   -9 -7    -8   7   -7   -8 
The flags we con-quered in that fray
 7    -8  -9 -7 -8    8 -7   -7 7 7
Look lone in Y-pres’ choir, they say
 7 -7  -8   -9  -7  -8 7  -7 -8
We’ll with them com-pa-ny to-day
8   -9   7   6   8     -8    -7    7
Or brave-ly die like Clare’s dra-goons
-5 5 -4 -5 -5   6   7    -7    7 -5
Then vi-va-la, for Ire-land’s wrong
-4 -5 -5 -8  8-8 -7 7     6
vi-va-la for Ire’land’s right
-5 5 -4 -5 -5  6   7  -7    -8
Then vi-va-la, in bat-tle through
 8  8  -9   7    6    8  -8 -7    7
For a Span-ish steed and sa-ber bright
