Down by the beautiful Lakes of Killarney	A
Off times I have met my own dear Barney	A
In the sweet summer time of the year	B
In the silvery moonlight so clear	B
I've rambled with my sweetheart Barney	A
Along the green banks of the Lakes of Killarney	A
	-
The Lakes of Killarney are most lovely to be seen	A
In the summer season when nature's face is green	A
Especially in the beautiful silvery moonlight	C
When its waters do shine like silver bright	C
Such was the time when me and my Barney	A
Went to walk by the purty Lakes of Killarney	A
	-
My Barney was beautiful gallant and gay	D
But alas he has left me and gone far away	D
To that foreign country called Amerikay	D
But when he returns we will get married without delay	D
And again we will roam by the Lakes of Killarney	A
Me and my sweetheart charming Barney	A
	-
And until he returns I will feel rather sad	E
For while walking with Barney I always felt glad	E
May God send him home again safe to me	A
And he will fill my sad heart with glee	A
While we walk by the Lakes of Killarney	A
	-
I dreamt one night I was walking with Barney	A
Down by the beautiful Lakes of Killarney	A
And he said Nora dear Nora don't fret for me	A
For I will soon come home to thee	A
And I will build a nice cabin near the Lakes of Killarney	A
And Nora will live happy with her own dear Barney	A
	-
But alas I awoke from my beautiful dream	F
For och if was a most lovely scene	A
But I hope it will happen some unexpected day	D
When Barney comes home from Amerikay	D
Then Barney will relate his adventures to me	A
As we walk by the silvery Lakes of Killarney	A
	-
We will ramble among its green trees and green bushes	G
And hear the sweet songs of the blackbirds and thrushes	G
And gaze on its lovely banks so green	A
And its waters glittering like crystal in the moonlight's sheen	A
Och how I long to be walking with Barney	A
Along the green banks of the Lakes of Killarney	A
	-
Of all the spots in Ireland Killarney for me	A
For 'twas there I first met my dear Barney	A
He was singing I remember right merrily	A
And his singing filled my heart with glee	A
And he said Nora dear Nora will you walk with me	A
For you are the prettiest girl I ever did see	A
	-
Now Barney I said you are just mocking me	A
When you say no other girl like me you can see	A
Then he said Nora you are the only girl I do love	H
And this I do swear by the saints above	H
I will marry you dear Nora without delay	D
When I come home from Amerikay	D
	-
But when Barney landed in Amerikay	D
He courted another girl without dismay	D
And he married her in the month of May	D
And when I heard it I fainted away	D
So maidens beware of such men as Barney	A
Or else they will deceive ye with their flattering blarney	A
