    Em                   G
When I was a boy, on the banks of the Moy,
       C                        D
I went fishing one fine summer’s day
         Em                      G
Down the patchy that strolled my heart took a roll
C                      D
Seemed to pour past that way  
       Am             C                       D
It was there, she sat down and we talked for a while
       Am           C                    D
It was there I surrendered my heart to a smile  

        Em          G
She had eyes of the purest kind
    C              D
And lips I longed for all the time  
        Bm            C           D
But her cruel father tore us Both apart  
          Em             G
She could smile, put the sun to shame
      C              D
Still in my dreams I call her name
     Bm                 C        D        G
Lost time has failed to take her from my heart

[Verse]
    Em                          G
Her family had money, but her father had gambled
C           D   
Most of his fortune away
   Em                        G  
He arranged her to marry an old gentleman
      C                   D  
But my love she couldn’t betray  
      Am               C                    D
And to where we first met brooked hearted she stroll
        Am           C                   D
In the Moy she surrendered  her body and soul  

        Em          G
She had eyes of the purest kind
    C              D
And lips I longed for all the time  
        Bm            C           D
But her cruel father tore us Both apart  
          Em             G
She could smile, put the sun to shame
      C              D
Still in my dreams I call her name
     Bm                 C        D        G
Lost time has failed to take her from my heart

Out
Em                               G  
On the banks of the Moy where I Once stood a boy
   C                       D  
A lonely old man now  I did stray  
     Em                              G  
Many years have gone by, but there’s not one that I
       C                      D
Didn’t long to return to that day  
       Am            C                       D
In the pool by the banks of the Moy there’s a swan,
         Am              C                    D
And they say that she talks to a lonely old man  


        Em           G
She had eyes of the purest kind
    C              D
And lips I longed for all the time  
        Bm            C           D
But her cruel father tore us Both apart  
          Em             G
She could smile, put the sun to shame
      C              D
Still in my dreams I call her name
     Bm                 C        D        G
Lost time has failed to take her from my heart
