C                            F                 C
Oh, my boat can safely float in the teeth of wind and weather
       Am               C               F          Dm G
And outrace the fastest clipper between Galway and Kinsale
          C                 F             Dm                 C      Am
Where the white foam of the ocean and the dark clouds roll together
          F               C             Dm      G        C
There she rides it in her pride, like a seagull over the waves


[Chorus]

Oh, she's neat, oh, she's sweet
        Em        F     Am
She's a beauty in every line
    G             C
The Queen of Connemara
F          C        G         C
She's that bounding barque of mine


[Interlude]
G    C  F  C  G  C


[Verse 2]
                                          F              C
When she's loaded down with fish 'til the water lips the gun'l
      Am                  C                    F       Dm   G
Not a drop she'll take on board her that would drive a fly away
       C                    F              Dm                 C      Am
Like a ship she'll sail out gladly, like a greyhound from his kennel
           F        C      Dm                  G            C
And she'll land her silver store, the first on ould Kinvara quay


[Chorus]

Oh, she's neat, oh, she's sweet
        Em        F     Am
She's a beauty in every line
    G             C
The Queen of Connemara
F          C        G         C
She's that bounding barque of mine


[Instrumental]
C     F   C   Am   C   F   G
C   F   Dm   C  Am  F  C  Dm   G   C


[Chorus]

Oh, she's neat, oh, she's sweet
        Em        F     Am
She's a beauty in every line
    G             C
The Queen of Connemara
F          C        G         C
She's that bounding barque of mine


[Verse 3]
                                        F                C
There's a light shines out afar, and it keeps me from dismaying
         Am          C               F        Dm         G
When the sky is ink above us and the sea runs white with foam
     C           F               Dm                C       Am
In a cot in Connemara, there's a wife and wee ones praying
       F       C          Dm              G              C
To the one who walked the waters once, to send us safely home


[Chorus]

Oh, she's neat, oh, she's sweet
        Em        F     Am
She's a beauty in every line
    G             C
The Queen of Connemara
F          C        G         C
She's that bounding barque of mine


[Chorus]

Oh, she's neat, oh, she's sweet
        Em        F     Am
She's a beauty in every line
    G             C
The Queen of Connemara
F          C        G         C
She's that bounding barque of mine
    G             C
The Queen of Connemara
F          C        G         C
She's that bounding barque of mine
