THE HARP THAT ONCE hi-lo
W: Thomas Moore
Irish folk song
Key: A

 1   3    -3”  2    2    -3” -3    4
 4   6    -6   5    5    -6  -7    7
The harp that once thro’ Ta-ra’s halls

-3”  3   2  -1  2   1
-6   6   5  -4  5   4
Its soul of mu-sic shed

 3    4   -3  4   -4 4   -3   -3”
 6    7   -7  7   -8 7   -7   -6
Now hangs as mute on Ta-ra’s walls

3  -3” 3    4    2    3
6  -6  6    7    5    6
As if that soul were fled

3    4    -3    4   -4  4  -3   -3”
6    7    -7    7   -8  7  -7   -6
So sleeps the pride of for-mer days

3  -3”  3     -2”  2   -3”
6  -6   6     -5   5   -6
So glo-ry’s thrill is o’er

-3    4     -3   -3”  3    -3” -3    4
-7    7     -7   -6   6    -6  -7    7
And hearts that once beat high for praise

-3”  3    2    -1   2   1
-6   6    5    -4   5   4
Now feel that pulse no more.
