[Intro]
N.C.
Connemara, Connemara on my mind

Connemara on my mind

[Verse Spoken]
Fm                Eb
While I'm sitting here
                   Cm
The waves of the sea are lapping
        Eb                 Fm
Against the wild shores of Connemara
Eb
The sky breaks
               Cm
Dazzling light pierces through
Eb
Down to the water
Fm             Eb                   Cm
Giving forth a thousand reflections of silver
Eb
So that I have to close my eyes
Fm                         Eb
And then together with the vile wind
      Cm                     Eb
I fly away to all the places
               Fm
I've never seen

[Verse 1]
Fm
He said his eyes where looking queer
Eb
Can't you take me out of here
Cm                       Eb     Bb
Can't you see the sky of Connemara
Fm
This is how his warning goes
Eb
Beware the night a whirlwind blows
Cm                         Eb    Bb
Better leave this town for Connemara

[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Fm
We hit the road, we hitched a ride
Eb
The morning faded into night
Cm                    Eb    Bb
We were on our way to Connemara
Fm
Asylum was a basic right
    Eb
But socialism lost the fight
Cm                       Eb    Bb
Thousands headed down to Connemara

[Pre Chorus]
Gm
In my imagination
      Ab
I can feel the wild wind blow
    Cm                               Bb
The morning breeze will wipe away my fear
  Gm
In my imagination
      Ab
I can hear the howling sea
    Cm                              G
The cottage on the shore belongs to me

[Chorus]
     C  G  C               G
Connemara, Connemara on my mind
     C  G        Am            F
Connemara, where even the rain shines
     C  G          C               G
Connemara, leaving all my troubles behind
     Am         F
Connemara on my mind

[Verse 3]
Fm
And when we reached the Emerald Isle
Eb
We stayed in Dublin for a while
Cm                                Eb     Bb
But soon we reached the cliffs of Connemara
Fm
It's just the place I want to be
Eb
Shining in my fantasy
Cm                        Eb     Bb
Can't you take me back to Connemara

[Pre Chorus]
Gm
In my imagination
      Ab
I can feel the wild wind blow
    Cm                               Bb
The morning breeze will wipe away my fear
  Gm
In my imagination
      Ab
I can hear the howling sea
    Cm                              G
The cottage on the shore belongs to me

[Chorus]
     C  G  C               G
Connemara, Connemara on my mind
     C  G        Am            F
Connemara, where even the rain shines
     C  G          C               G
Connemara, leaving all my troubles behind
     Am         F
Connemara on my mind
