I'll Take You Home Again, Kathleen sing and play along

I'll take you home again, Kathleen,

a cross the ocean wild and wide,

to where your heart has ever been,

since first you were my bonnie bride.

The roses all have left your cheek;

I've watched them fade away and die.

Your voice is sad whene'er you speak,

and tears bedim your loving eye.

Oh, I will take you back,

Kathleen, to where your heart will feel no pain.

And when the fields are fresh and green,

I'd take you home again, Kathleen.

I know you love me, Kathleen dear;

your heart was ever fond and true.

I always feel when you are near

that life holds nothing dear but you.

The smiles that once you gave to me,

I scarcely ever see them now.

The many, many times I see a dark'ning shad ow on your brow.

Oh, I will take you back,

Kathleen, to where your heart will feel no pain.

And when the fields are fresh and green,

I'd take you home again, Kathleen.

To leen.
