Intro: C-C-F-C C-F-G-G
If you [C]listen I'll sing you a [F]sweet little [C]song
Of a flower that's [D7]now droped and [G]dead,
Yet [C]dearer to me, yes than [F]all of its [C]mates,
Though each holds a[G]loft its proud [C]head.
T’was [F]given to me by a [C]girl that I know,
Since we've met, faith I've [D7]known no re[G]pose.
She is [C]dearer by far than the [F]world's brightest [C]star,
And I call her my [G]wild Irish [C]Rose.
Chorus
My [C]wild [G]Irish [C]Rose,
The [F]sweetest [G]flower that [C]grows.
You may [F]search every[C]where, but [F]none can com[C]pare
With my [D]wild [D7]Irish [G]Rose.
My [C]wild [G]Irish [C]Rose,
The [F]dearest [G]flower that [C]grows,
And some [F]day for my [C]sake, she [F]may let me [C]take
The [D7]bloom from my [G]wild Irish [C]Rose.
Bridge: C-F-G-G
They may [C]sing of their roses, which [F]by other [C ]names,
Would smell just as [D7]sweetly, they [G]say.
But [C]I know that my Rose would [F]never con[C]sent
To have that sweet name [G]taken a[C]way.
Her [F]glances are shy when [C]e'er I pass by
The bower where my [D7]true love [G]grows,
And my [C]one wish has been that some [F]day I may [C]win
The heart of my [G]wild Irish [C]Rose.
Chorus
If you [C]listen I'll sing you a [F]sweet little [C]song
Of a flower that's [D7]now droped and [G]dead,
Yet [C]dearer to me, yes than [F]all of its [C]mates,
Though each holds a[G]loft its proud [C]head.
T’was [F]given to me by a [C]girl that I know,
Since we've met, faith I've [D7]known no re[G]pose.
She is [C]dearer by far than the [F]world's brightest [C]star,
And I call her my [G]wild Irish [C]Rose.
Chorus
My [C]wild [G]Irish [C]Rose,
The [F]sweetest [G]flower that [C]grows.
You may [F]search every[C]where, but [F]none can com[C]pare
With my [D]wild [D7]Irish [G]Rose.
My [C]wild [G]Irish [C]Rose,
The [F]dearest [G]flower that [C]grows,
And some [F]day for my [C]sake, she [F]may let me [C]take
The [D7]bloom from my [G]wild Irish [C]Rose.
Bridge: C-F-G-G
They may [C]sing of their roses, which [F]by other [C ]names,
Would smell just as [D7]sweetly, they [G]say.

A flight of enchanted leprechauns must have been hover- ing around winsome Joni when she recorded this delight- ful collection of favorite Irish songs-sprinkling her with lucky shamrocks that added a lovely Gaelic lilt to her silken song stylings. Her twelve well-varied selections reflect many of the deep moods and feelings of a warm, emotional people-tenderness, sentimentality, whimsy, joy, fierce love of home, family, and country. Some of the songs are authentic numbers from the old country itself -others are Irish-American in origin-all truly live up to the designation: "favorite".
The idea of recording an Irish album first came to Joni several years ago when her version of Danny Boy was released and became one of her biggest million-selling "Golden Record" hits. Shortly after the success of that record, she travelled to England for the first of what has since been many professional tours of that country and Western Europe. Tour ended, she stopped off in Ireland for a brief vacation on her way home and immediately fell in love with "The Emerald Isle". From that day on, she cherished the idea of recording an album like the very one you now hold in your hands.
"JONI SINGS IRISH FAVORITES", like all of the singer's superb albums, was planned with painstaking care and thoughtfulness. Joni studied dozens upon dozens of songs, searching for the twelve she felt she could project in the most meaningful and personal manner. Of course, a place had to be reserved for a fresh recording of her magical version of Danny Boy, presented for the first time here in stereo sound techniques. Orchestra arrangements which would capture an Irish flavor yet would retain the overall international quality which has made Joni a world-wide star were tested again and again until polished to a point of perfection. The artistic collaboration here was with her husband-conductor, Acquaviva, with whom she has ap- peared on records and in symphonic concerts throughout the Americas, Europe and the Far East. A large orchestra was formed of some of the finest musicians available in New York at the time of the recording sessions and was supplemented by a chorus of hand-picked singers. And, the result is the bewitching listening pleasure etched indelibly into the grooves of this album. As a token of Joni's perfectionism, it might be noted that she studied seriously the pronunciation of any Gaelic words included in the texts of her songs. When she learned that accents vary within the language from section to section of Ire- land, she searched out the origins of the songs in question, attempting to match the appropriate regional dialect to the lyric.
