C          G
I'm an Irish woman
             C         G
That means I cry too much
             C         G
That means I have trouble
D
When you go
              C        G
And I'm that kind of woman
              C        G
The world's biggest junkie
              C        G
That means I have trouble
D      G
Saying no


     D                    C               G
So send me a song on the sweet wings of sorrow
C          G       D       G
Hold me and I will cry nevermore
        D                       C        G
'Cause I'm here today, and I'll be here tomorrow
C        G      Am            G
Fly me away, fly me away from Baltimore


C             G
I'm an Irish woman
         C            G
I love weddings and funerals
C               G
Beginnings and endings
     D
The front and the back
        C              G
And how you've always loved
     C            G
My deep sense of hope
          C          G
Now I've gallons of hope
       D           G
It's sense that I lack


     D                    C               G
So send me a song on the sweet wings of sorrow
C          G       D       G
Hold me and I will cry nevermore
        D                       C        G
'Cause I'm here today, and I'll be here tomorrow
C        G      Am            G
Fly me away, fly me away from Baltimore


        C     G
I'm an Irish woman
                    C              G
That means there's whiskey in my glass
          C             G
And I've been here a lifetime
D
Casing the joint
              C        G
And I'm that kind of woman
     C              G
Who cries in her whiskey
             C                G
If you can't cry when you're Irish
D
Then what's the point


     D                          C               G
So I'll send you a song on the sweet wings of sorrow
C          G       D       G
Hold me and I will cry nevermore
        D                       C        G
'Cause I'm here today, and I'll be gone tomorrow
C        G      Am            G
Flying away, flying away from Baltimore
