song is in standard tuning, the way i hear it christy uses chordvariations while
fingerpicking the song.
anyway, an easy overview over the chords used:
E 3 x x x
A x 3 x 0
D 0 2 3 2
G 0 0 2 2
B 3 1 1 1
e 3 3 3 0
christy uses some variations on the high e-string and on the rute notes to make
the song softer. i didnt figure them out, but i'm sure you can by just trying. ah
and the song's in 3/4!
You may travel far far from your own native home
Far away o'er the mountains far away o'er the foam
But of all the fine places that I've ever seen,
There's none to compare with The Cliffs of Dooneen
Take a view o'er the water fine sights you'll see there
You'll see the high rocky slopes on the West coast of Clare
The towns of Kilkee and Kilrush can be seen
From the high rocky slopes at The Cliffs of Dooneen
It's a nice place to be on a fine Summer's day
Watching all the wild flowers that ne'er do decay
The hare and lofty pheasant are plain to be seen
Making homes for their young round The Cliffs of Dooneen
Fare thee well to Dooneen fare thee well for a while
And to all the fine people I'm leaving behind
To the streams and the meadows where late I have been
And the high rocky slopes of The Cliffs of Dooneen
have fun with that great song :)
