 D        G         Am                D         G
Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile
                   D          Am           D
And all around the borders of Erin's green isle
    G               D             Am           D
And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom
          G           Am            D              G
And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons


[VERSE 1:]
                      Am           D              G
Now our good ship was ready at the dawning of the day
                 D                 Am           D
From lovely Enniskillen, they were marching us away
     G            D               Am               D
They put us all onboard a ship to cross the raging Main
       G              Am            D             G
For to fight a bloody battle in the sunny land of Spain


[CHORUS:]
D         G         Am                D         G
Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile
                   D          Am           D
And all around the borders of Erin's green isle
    G               D             Am           D
And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom
          G           Am            D              G
And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons


[VERSE 2:]
                   Am                 D                 G
Now, Spain it is a gallant land where wine and ale flow free
                      D        Am             D
There's many a lovely women to dandle on your knee
    G        D                  Am               D
And often an alehouse, we would make the rafters ring
     G             Am                 D                   G
When every soldier in the house would raise his glass and sing


[CHORUS:]
D         G         Am                D         G
Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile
                   D          Am           D
And all around the borders of Erin's green isle
    G               D             Am           D
And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom
          G           Am            D              G
And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons


[VERSE 3:]
                        Am              D              G
We fought for Ireland's glory there and many a man did fall
                     D                Am               D
From musket and from bayonet and from thundering cannonball
    G             D            Am             D
And many a foeman we laid low amid the battle throng
       G               Am                D               G
And as we prepared for action, you would often hear this song


[CHORUS:]
D         G         Am                D         G
Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile
                   D          Am           D
And all around the borders of Erin's green isle
    G               D             Am           D
And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom
          G           Am            D              G
And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons


[VERSE 4:]
                          Am           D                G
And well, now, the war is over and for home we have set sail
                      D             Am                D
And the flag upon our lofty ship is fluttering in the gale
          G          D          Am          D
They have given us a pension of fourpence a day
         G             Am            D                  G
And when we reach Enniskillen, never more we'll have to say


[CHORUS:]
D         G         Am                D         G
Fare thee well Enniskillen, fare thee well for awhile
                   D          Am           D
And all around the borders of Erin's green isle
    G               D             Am           D
And when the war is over, we'll return in full bloom
          G           Am            D              G
And we'll all welcome home the Enniskillen Dragoons
