     F       F7          A#             F
The valleys hurt , the flowers all are dying
     A#           F             G       C
The meadow winds wild with the winter snow
 F          F7           A#                 F
Lord as i stand at the place where daddys lying
A#               F         C          F
I say a silent prayer and somehow i know

F   C       Dm    C     A#            F
He heres me there, tho soft i tread above him
     A#               F         Gm    C
Tho now he sleeps in peace his danny boy
          Dm A# Gm C# F
Had come home

Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen and down the mountain side
The summer's gone and all the roses dying
'Tis you, 'tis you must go and I must bye

Chorus:
Oh come here back when the sunshine roams
the meadows
For when the valleys hush and white with snow
For i'll be here in sunshine or shadows
Oh danny boy oh danny boy i love you so

I close my eyes and still i can see
Him standing there on the hill
Tears fill his eyes as he waves goodbye to me
I cant forget i guess i never will

Chorus:
He said the valleys hurt, the flowers all are dying
The meadow is white with the winter snow
Come find a place where you know that
i'll be lying
Say a silent prayer so i'll know
Oooh Oooh
