[A] It's been ten years and [D] three since I [A] first went to sea
Since I [D] sailed from old [A] Ireland and [E7] home
But those [A] hills lush and [D] green were a [A] part of my dreams
When I [D] dreamed of my [E7] Colleen Ma[A]lone
On the day I returned to my sorrow I learned
That the angels had called her away
To a grave on a hill overlooking the mill
That's the place where she's sleeping today
As the [E7] soft breezes blow through the [D] meadow I [A] go
Past the [D] mill with the [A] moss covered [E7] stone
Up the pathway I climb through the [D] woods and the [A] vines
To [D] be with my [E7] Colleen Ma[A]lone
She was faithful each day as I sailed far away
There was no one but me that she loved
I remember those eyes soft and blue as the skies
And her heart was as pure as a dove
All the years of my life I will not take a wife
I will live in this valley above
Planting flowers around in this soft gentle ground
That is holding my Colleen Malone
As the [E7] soft breezes blow through the [D] meadow I [A] go
Past the [D] mill with the [A] moss covered [E7] stone
Up the pathway I climb through the [D] woods and the [A] vines
To [D] be with my [E7] Colleen Ma[A]lone
