Lyrics
There's a (D)spot in my (Bm)heart which no (G)(D)colleen may own.
There's a depth in my (G)soul (D)never (E7)sounded or (A7)known.
There's a (D)place in my (Bm)mem'ry,
my (A#dim)life, (G)that you (G#dim)fill.
No (Fdim7)other can (D)take it.
No (E7)one ever (A)will.
(G)Sure (A7)I (D)love (Ddim)the (D)dear (A7)(Adim7)silver (A7)that (D)shines (Ddim7)in (A7)your (D)hair and the (G)brow (F#)that's (G)all (D)furrowed (Bm7)and (E7)wrinkled (Gm)with (A7)care.
I (D)kiss (Ddim)the (D)dear (A7)(Adim7)fingers (A7)so (D)(G)toilworn (F#7)for (Bm)me.
(F#)Oh, (F#7)God (G)bless you and (D)keep you,
(Gm)Mother (D)Machree!
(A7)Ev'ry (D)sorrow or (Bm)care in the (G)dear (D)days gone by was made bright by the (G)light (D)of the (E7)smile in your (A7)eye.
Like a (D)candle that's (Bm)set in a (A#dim)(G)window at (G#dim)night,
your (Fdim7)fond love has (D)cheered me and (E7)guided me (A)right.
(G)Sure (A7)I (D)love (Ddim)the (D)dear (A7)(Adim7)silver (A7)that (D)shines (Ddim7)in (A7)your (D)hair and the (G)brow (F#)that's (G)all (D)furrowed (Bm7)and (E7)wrinkled (Gm)with (A7)care.
I (D)kiss (Ddim)the (D)dear (A7)(Adim7)fingers (A7)so (D)(G)toilworn (F#7)for (Bm)me.
(F#)Oh, (F#7)God (G)bless you and (D)keep you,
(Gm)Mother (D)Machree!
chree!
