[Verse 1]
   A                D            E       A
Tara's on my mind, getting worse as time goes by,
   Bm          C#m                E               Bm
I've got to make the time to see it once before I die,
       A                   D                E                A
The slow train has no bar on board, but that won’t make me cry,
  Bm                 C#m        E          Bm     E
For thinkin' of you Tara, Lord I'm drunk enough to fly.

 
[Chorus]
   A            D         Bm      E
If you were a lass, you'd be my bride
     Bm                    A
And our love would be a treasure,
            E             Bm       E        
Ever would we fly, beneath an Irish sky.
  A          D             Bm        E
If you were a dream, I'd stay asleep,
     Bm                    A
And if dreams were made to measure,
                 E              Bm
I'd be dreaming still, and I’d drink my fill,
  E           A
Tonight on Tara Hill.

[Verse 2]
    A              D           E                       A 
And men have died around you, for Kings and Queens and peers
      Bm                  C#m              E                     Bm           
But they left you as they found you, tho' your talked to them the same
    A             D           E          A
Songs of love and bravery, songs of yesteryear,
     Bm                C#m             E            Bm    E
But the songs about your beauty are the songs I'd love to hear.

 
[Chorus]
   A            D         Bm      E
If you were a lass, you'd be my bride
     Bm                    A
And our love would be a treasure,
            E             Bm       E        
Ever would we fly, beneath an Irish sky.
  A          D             Bm        E
If you were a dream, I'd stay asleep,
     Bm                    A
And if dreams were made to measure,
                 E              Bm
I'd be dreaming still, and I’d drink my fill,
  E           A
Tonight on Tara Hill.
