Dearg Doom Guitar Chords And Lyrics
These are the chords as played by Horslips. Dearg Doom Guitar Tab Fingerstyle included plus the tin whistle notes and tenor banjo / mandolin sheet music tab. There are a rake of other websites that give the tabs. The song was recently recorded by Celtic Thunder. I had the privilege of watching Horslips play this song soon after it was released at Red Island Dance Hall in Skerries north Dublin in the 1970's. We all played ''Air Guitars'' in them days. Celtic Thunder covered the classic Christy Moore song The Voyage which some say is all about being married for a long time ? .

[C]My love is colder than black [F]marble [G]by the se[D]a.
