[D]I am like the breakers moving through
They don’t hang around with you
Even if I’m longing to
[D]I am like a car in a moving train
In then away again
I’m on my way, on my way, night after day
And you’re [Am6]there, and you’re there,
Holding out your [C]hand
Making space in your heart
And a place in your plan
For the [Am]man with the soft spoken look in his [C]eyes
'Cuz [Am]I am like the breakers, moving [C]through
They don’t hang [G]around with you
[Am]I am like a car in a moving [C]train
In then [G]away again
So let me say [C]slan, is leannán thú
Let me say [Am]slan, is leannán thú
Is leannán [C]thú
My [F]rails travel far to the moon and [C]stars
We might meet [G]again some day
But [Am]you are a bright beacon I’d [C]say
A ship will come [G]along before long to stay
So let me say [C]slan, is leannán thú
Let me say [Am]slan, is leannán thú
Is leannán [C]thú
Instrumental: C Am C Am
[C]You will stay here in my mind
For a good long time
Beidh cuimhne agam ort
For a long time
For a good long time
Slan, is leannán thú
Is leannán thú
For a long time
For a good long time
