Brennan On The Moor
C G7 C
Tis of a brave young highwayman this story I will tell
C F C
His name was Willie Brennan and in Ireland he did dwell
Am F C
It was on the Kilwood Mountain he commenced his wild career
C Em
And many a wealthy nobleman before him shook with fear
C Em
Brennan on the moor, Brennan on the moor
F C G7 F C
Bold, brave undaunted was young Brennan on the moor
C G7 C
One day upon the highway as Willie he went down
C F C
He met the mayor of Cashel a mile outside of town
Am F C
The mayor he knew his features and he said, Young man, said he
C Em
Your name is Willie Brennan, you must come along with me
C Em
Brennan on the moor, Brennan on the moor
F C G7 F C
Bold, brave undaunted was young Brennan on the moor
C G7 C
Now Brennan's wife had gone to town provisions for to buy
C F C
And when she saw her Willie she commenced to weep and cry
Am F C
Said, Hand to me that tenpenny, as soon as Willie spoke
C Em
She handed him a blunderbuss from underneath her cloak
C Em
Brennan on the moor, Brennan on the moor
F C G7 F C
Bold, brave undaunted was young Brennan on the moor
C G7 C
Now with this loaded blunderbuss - the truth I will unfold -
C F C
He made the mayor tremble and he robbed him of his gold
Am F C
One hundred pounds was offered for his apprehension there
C Em
So he, with horse and saddle to the mountains did repair
C Em
Brennan on the moor, Brennan on the moor
F C G7 F C
Bold, brave undaunted was young Brennan on the moor
C G7 C
Now Brennan being an outlaw upon the mountains high
C F C
With cavalry and infantry to take him they did try
Am F C
He laughed at them with scorn until at last 'twas said
C Em
By a false-hearted woman he was cruelly betrayed
C Em
Brennan on the moor, Brennan on the moor
F C G7 F C
Bold, brave undaunted was young Brennan on the moor |
