The Storyteller aka Paddy's Song Guitar Chords And Lyrics

Many Irish folk songs have being written that use the name Paddy in the title of the song. They are still being written. As far as I can tell the latest one is Paddy Song which was brought out and written by Gerry Carney. From the most recent to one of the oldest which is Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore [ Lyrics And Chords ] which, I suppose is famous as being a ''Paul Brady Song '' . Songs get ''associated '' and guitar player Extraordinaire Paul Brady has this title.

​ Written by Tony McManus and recorded by Pentangle. 6/8. Chords by Marc.
I've (G)heard all the (A)stories you (D)tell to your (A7)friends
The (G)heart rendering (A)stories of maidens and men
In the (D)days gone be(A)fore
And songs of the (D)mist covered mountains and (A)vales
Of demons and (D)fairies and mischievous (A)tales.
A-A7-D-A-A-A-A

Come (G)sing me a (A)song with a (D)haunting re(A7)frain
Of (G)lovers for(A)saken and left all forlorn
In the (D)saddest of (A)tales
And lonely the (D)piper will play just for (A)me
And fill the night (D)air with his sweet melo(A)dies.
A-A7-D-A-A-A-A

Come (G)sit down be(A)side me and (D)stay for a (A7)while
And (G)tell me the (A)secrets you hide 'neath your smile
And the (D)glint in your (A)eye
Then take hold of (D)my hand as the band starts to (A)play
We'll dance through the (D)night till the stars fade a(A)way.

A-A7-D-A-A-A-A
Instrumental verse
A-A7-D-A-A-A-A

Come (G)pour me a (A)glass of the (D)ruby red (A7)wine
We'll (G)draw near the (A)hearth and the warmth of the fire
In a (D)rosy red (A)glow
A chorus of (D)fiddlers to join in so (A)free
We'll drink to fond (D)love and good compa(A)ny.
