From An Island To An Island
[Kevin Collins]From An Island To An Island 2nd. fret A
[A]MY FATHER LEFT OLD IRELAND, [D]SO MANY YEARS[A]AGO
[E]HE LEFT HIS HOME IN GALWAY, WHERE THE GREEN GREEN SHAMROCKS[A]GROW
HE MET MY DARLING MOTHER[D]ON A BOAT TO NEWFOUND[A]LAND
[E]AND IT DIDN'T TAKE HIM LONG BEFORE, HE WON HER HEART AND[A]HAND
[A]THEY BOTH CAME TO THIS ISLAND,[D]AS HAPPY AS[A]COULD BE
[E]TO SETTLE DOWN TOGETHER, AND RAISE A FAMI[A]LY
THEY BUILT A LITTLE COTTAGE,[D]AND STARTED TO[A]COMBINE
[E]THE GREEN OF THE SHAMROCK, WITH THE GREEN OF[A]THE PINE
CHORUS
[A]FROM AN ISLAND TO AN ISLAND, [D]FROM THE GREEN TO[A]THE GREEN
[E]THEY LEFT THEIR HOMES TO SETTLE IN, A PLACE THEY NEVER[A]SEEN
THEY EXCHANGED THE HILLS OF NEWFOUNDLAND,[D]FOR THE ONES THEY'D LEFT[A]BEHIND
[E]AND THE GREEN OF THE SHAMROCK FOR THE GREEN OF[A]THE PINE.
[A]AS THEIR FAMILIY GREW AROUND THEM, [D]THEIR EYES SHONE BRIGHT[A]WITH PRIDE
[E]THEY'D GO TO CHURCH EACH SUNDAY MORN' STROLLING SIDE[A]BY SIDE
EACH EVENING ROUND THE TURF-FIRE[D]TO HEAVEN WOULD[A]ASCEND
[E]THE DECADES OF THE ROSARY FOR ALL IN IRE[A]LAND
[A]NOW THE YEARS PASSED BY SO QUICKLY,[D]AND DEATH WE ALL MUST[A]FACE
[E]WE LAID OUR LOVING PARENTS IN THEIR FINAL RESTING[A]PLACE
YET THEY TAUGHT ME TO BE THANKFUL[D]FOR THIS HERITAGE THAT'S [A]MINE
[E]THE GREEN OF THE SHAMROCK AND THE GREEN OF[A]THE PINE.
REPEAT CHORUS
