verse 1: 
     D                                G       A       D 
When boyhoods fire was in my blood, I read of ancient free men 
    D                                       G       Em      A 
For Greece and Rome who bravely stood three hundred men and three men 
    A                                 G               D 
And then I prayed I yet might see our fetters rent in twain 
    G              A             D      A    D 
And Ireland long a Provence be a nation once again 

  D           G        Em           A 
A nation once again, a nation once again

And Ireland long a Provence be a nation once again

It whispered to that freedoms ark and service high and holy 
      D                                G        Em      A 
Would be prepared my feelings dark and passions vain or lowly 
    A                                       G             D 
For freedom comes from God’s right hand and needs a godly train 
    G                  A               D      A    D 
And righteous men must make our land a nation once again 

  D           G        Em           A 
A nation once again, a nation once again 
    D              G        A    D      A     D 
And Ireland long a Provence be a nation once again 
 
verse 3: 
   D                           G       A       D 
So as I grew from boy to man I bent me to that bidding 
   D                               G     Em      A 
My spirit of each selfish plan and cruel passion ridding 
    A                              G                D 
For thus I hope some day to aid oh can such hope be vain 
     G               A                D      A    D 
When my dear country should be made a nation once again  

  D           G        Em           A 
A nation once again, a nation once again 
    D              G        A    D      A     D 
And Ireland long a Provence be a nation once again
