D Bm A G A G D
It was on a mild September morn the weather it being warm
D Bm D Bm
It had been my luck to stray along the bay of sweet Glenarm
D Bm D Bm
For the yellow corn was waving bright and everything looked gay
D Bm A G A G D
And the blue waves washed the pebbles white along Glenarm Bay
[Verse]
D Bm A G A G D
It was there I espied a charming maid a maid both young and gay
D Bm D Bm
And the sun arose it brighter shone as she appeared that day
D Bm D Bm
I stepped up to this fair young maid and this to her did say
D Bm A G A G D
What brings you here so early dear along Glenarm Bay

[Verse]
D Bm A G A G D
She answered me right modestly what makes you ask me so
D Bm D Bm
There’s nothing brings young women here but all young men do know
D Bm D Bm
It is the love of you my dear she answered modestly
D Bm A G A G D
Sure a manly man won’t annoy me along Glenarm Bay
[Verse]
D Bm A G A G D
Says I my dear you must not fear your request I won’t deny
D Bm D Bm
If you but knew the pain of love that in my heart does lie
D Bm D Bm
You must surely take me as your love and name the happy day
D Bm A G A G D
And cure the wound that you caused me along Glenarm Bay
D Bm A G
A G D
[Verse]
D Bm A G A G D
Says she my dear if you’re sincere here is my heart and hand
D Bm D Bm
And I’ll never forget the happy morn that we met along the strand
D Bm D Bm
And when old age comes rolling on and our locks are turning grey
D Bm A G A G D
We will always mind the happy morn we met along the Bay
D Bm A G
