Grace, Just Hold Me In Your Arms

Capo 3 

1. G  C  D
As we gather in the chapel here, in old Kilmainham jail, 
C  G  A  D
I think about these past few weeks, oh, will they say we failed, 
G  C  D
From our school days they have told us we must yearn for liberty,
C  G  Em  D  G 
But all I want in this dark place is to have you here with me. 
 
СHОRUS:
D  C  G  
Оh, Grace, just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger, 
C  G  D  D7
They’ll take me out at dawn and I will die    
D  C  G
With all my love I place this wedding ring upon your finger, 
C  G  Em  D  G
There won’t be time to share our love, for we must say goodbye. 
 
2. G  C  D 
Now, I know it's hard for you, my love, to ever understand, 
C  G  A  D
The love I bear for these brave men, -  my love for this dear land 
G  C  D
But when Padraic called me to his side down in the G.P.О., 
C  G  Em  D  G
I had to leave my own sick bed, to him I had to go.   

3. G  C  D
Now as the dawn is breaking, my heart is breaking, too, 
C  G  A  D
on this May morn as I walk out, my thoughts will be of you. 
G  C  D
And I'll write some words upon the wall, so everyone will know, 
C  G  Em  D  G
I loved so much that I could see his blood upon the rose.        
 
СHОRUS:
D  C  G
Оh, Grace, just hold me in your arms and let this moment linger, 
C  G  D  D7
They’ll take me out at dawn and I will die.
D  C  G                             
With all my love I place this wedding ring upon your finger, 
C  G  Em  D  G
There won’t be time to share our love, for we must say goodbye.  
C  G  Em  D  C  G
Оh, there won’t be time to share our love, for we must say good bye
