[Chorus]
DLimerick, A7you're a Dlady,
D7Your GShannon Em7waters tears of joy that Dflow,
The Bmbeauty that F#msurrounds you,
I Em7take it with me Glove where e'er I A7go,
While Dwaking in the A7arms of distant Bmwaters,
A new Gday finds me Em7far away from A7home,
Then DLimerick, A7you're a Dlady,
D7The one true Em7love that I A7have ever Dknown.
[Verse 1]
DAs children you and I, Dmaj7spent Gendless days of Dfun,
In Gwinter snow or Em7summer's golden Dsun,
We Bmfished in silver springs, the F#mfabric of my Bmdreams,
Was Em7fashioned by your loveliness, and Gso I have to D7say,
[Chorus]
DLimerick, A7you're a Dlady,
D7Your GShannon Em7waters tears of joy that Dflow,
The Bmbeauty that F#msurrounds you,
I Em7take it with me Glove where e'er I A7go,
While Dwaking in the A7arms of distant Bmwaters,
A new Gday finds me Em7far away from A7home,
Then DLimerick, A7you're a Dlady,
D7The one true Em7love that I A7have ever Dknown.
[Verse 2]
A Dgift that time has made, Dmaj7to    Gtravelers on their Dway,
GSeeking out the Em7beauty of our Dland,
A Bmshrine where children pray, and F#mbells ring out to Bmsay,
Thank Em7God we're living just to feel, the Gfreedom of each D7day,
[Chorus]
DLimerick, A7you're a Dlady,
D7Your GShannon Em7waters tears of joy that Dflow,
The Bmbeauty that F#msurrounds you,
I Em7take it with me Glove where e'er I A7go,
While Dwaking in the A7arms of distant Bmwaters,
A new Gday finds me Em7far away from A7home,
Then DLimerick, A7you're a Dlady,
D7The one true Em7love that I A7have ever Dknown.
