Commander Chris Hadfield sings Danny Boy in Ireland

[@maggierobins6773]

He seems to be a wonderful ambassador for life itself....

[@patrickkelly7085]

YOU ARE RIGHT

[@XavierBetoN]

Sending him to space was probably the best advertisement of humanity

[@BrianDeeney]

Met him yesterday at book signing in Easons, Foyleside. Huge crowd there. He was only supposed to be there for an hour but stayed for almost two so that he could see everyone - a real gent.

[@fredroberts8769]

He did the same in Ottawa, Canada. Two hours turned into five or more! A true gentleman indeed!

[@RandyFortier]

Same in Oshawa. He's a great guy, and an awesome speaker!

No matter what's the song's origin and who's singing, , simply amazing. Thanks for sharing. From a Brazilian guy who loves good music.

[@lzsmith8]

just a reminder, this guy had been to space. we literally sent a rockstar to space everybody

[@Schoolmarm53]

Proud to say i am a fellow countrywoman of his, he is such an all round brilliant guy. And visiting my 2nd favourite place in the world!

[@stephenmcgirr9266]

He was the same in the Ballyliffin Lodge & Spa Hotel and McGrorys Bar in Inishowen on his visit. He would not leave until he had greeted everyone. A gentleman.

This was my Late Mother's favorite song.. She knew a young man she was good friends with and he was killed in WWII but by a freak accident. He was struck by lighting going into his plane...

[@TheCowboneneck]

[@clintonoshea]

What pub in Inishowen was this?! I have loads of family that live there, I probably know the place :)

[@clintonoshea]

Ooops, I see it was McGrory's! :)

[@jazzmastaj]

D, G, D, Em, C/G, G, Bm, Am, D G, D, Em, C/G, G. Am, D. Would love to know the rest ?

[@neilwatson12]

If you still want it :) Capo 2nd fret. The names I give are the names of the shapes. Technically a 'G' shape will produce an 'A' chord, just in case you're playing along with others say on piano. The song is in key of A: the capo lets us play it with easier shapes! 4 beats between every bracket. If you see G / D / etc then it's G for 4, D for 4. If you see two chords in one set of brackets, they're 2 beats each , e.g. G / Am D / is G for 4, Am for 2, D for 2. Verse: G / D / Em / C G / Bm / Am / D G / D / Em / C / G / Am D / G / D Chorus G / C / G / D Em / Bm / Am / D G / C / G / Em G / Am D / G / D Verse 2 as verse 1! Then 2nd Chorus: G / C / G / D Em / Bm / Am / D G / C / G / Em G / Am D / C / G Make sure you don't leave any dry eyes in the room now...
