Verse 
          D 
I haven't slept since Wednesday evening 
           A                   Bm         G 
There is no sleep with all this grieving 
         D 
No music here, where once was singing 
          A 
Where once was singing 

Verse 
            D 
We are like ghosts here on Rathlin Island 
             A                     Bm      G 
All fleshless bone, all shamed and silent 
             D 
Our feet are stone where once was dancing 
          A 
Where once was dancing
