Emerald (BBC Radio One Live in Concert)

[Intro]

Gonna start shakin' up onto

This one is called, uh

Oh, yeah

Special request for all the Irish here, tonight

It's a number called "Emerald"

[Verse 1]

Down from the glen came the marchin' men

With their shields and their swords

To fight the fight they believed to be right

Overthrow the overlords

Town where there was plenty

They brought plunder, sword, and flame

And when they left the town, it was empty

And children would never play again

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]

From the grave, I heard the fallen

Above the battle cry

By that bridge near the border

There were many more to die

Then onward over the mountain, yeah

And outward towards the sea

They'd come to claim the emerald

Without it, would not leave

[Instrumental Break]

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]

Thank you
