Verse 1
DThe Rain Fell Soft On The Turf Stack Wall, Where MyG Grandfather WoulDd Stand
With A DMatch Held Low And A Story Told Of ThisBm Battered, StubborAn Land
He DSpoke Of Ghosts In The Risin’ Smoke, OfG Footsteps In ThDe Rain
Of Quiet Men With A Burning Oath They ACarried Through TheD Pain
And I Still BmHear His Voice In TheG Wind ADt Night, Sayin’ “Hold That FireG – Keep It BurnAing Bright”

Chorus
Oh, The DFlame They Could Not Quench, It’s GAlive In Me DTonight
In Every Whispered Prayer And Every BmRebelG Song AAt Night
Through The DDark And Through The Storm, Through TheG Tears We NeveBmr Show
Oh, The DFlame They Could NotBm Quench Is ThGe OnAly TruthD We Know
Yeah It DBurns, Yeah It Burns, In TheG Heart, In ThDe Skies
Still BmBurning, StillD BurniAng In IriDsh Eyes

Verse 2
They Tried To DWipe The Old Names Clean,G Tried To Still ThDe Tongue
Shut The Doors, Killed The Lights WhenBmeverG SongDs WeAre Sung
But Every DDawn On Donegal BrokeG Sharp Against ThDe Gray
And Lit A Spark In Every Soul They ANever TookD Away
You Can BmChain The Hands, You CanG Claim ThDe Land
But You’ll Never Take The Fire From A BmPeople WhoA Stand

Chorus
Oh, The DFlame They Could Not Quench, It’s GAlive In Me DTonight

Now I GStand Where The Hawthorn Bends In TheD Cold October Air
And I BmFeel That Same Old Current Like AG Pulse That’s AlwayAs There
And The DChildren Ask What It All Means, IG Smile And Tell TheBmm Play

Verse 3
When The DWind Cuts Through And The Night Runs Long, And TheG Silence Feels ToDo Deep
I Hear The Drums In The Frozen BmGround, I Hear TheG Past Beneath MAy Feet

You Can DBend, You Can Break, But You Won’t Erase What WasA Never Yours TDo Take
