Intro 1
(C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (C major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(Dsus4)
In (G major)
Verse 1
my memory (D major) I will (C major) always see
(G major) The (C major) town that (G major) I have loved so well (D major) (Dsus4)
(D major) Where (C major) (G major) a school played ball
(C major) by the old gas yard (G major) wall
And (C major) we laughed through
the smoke (G major) an (C major) d the (G major) smell
Going home (C major) in the (D major) rain
Running (G major) off the dark (C major) lane
Past the jail and down
behind the (D major) fountain
Those (C major) were (G major) happy days
(D major) In so (C major) many, many ways
(D major) In (G major) the (C major) town I loved (G major) so well (C major)
(G major) In the early morn (D major) ing a (C major) shirt
-backed tree (G major) -horn
Called (C major) the women from (G major) Creggan,
the moor and the (Dsus4) bog
While (D major) the (G major) men on the (D major) dole
played a (C major) mother's (G major) role,
fed the (C major) children and (G major) then walked (D major) the (G major) dog.
And when times (C major) got tough, (D major)
well there was (G major) just about (D major) enough, (E minor)
(D major) but they (C major) saw it through (A minor)
without (G major) complain (D major) ing.
For deep (G major) inside (D major) was a (C major) burning pride
(Dsus4) For (G major) the (C major) town I loved (G major) so (D major) well (G major)
There was music there (D major) in
the (C major) dairy air (Dsus4)
Like (D major) a (C major) language that we (G major) all
could understand (Dsus4) (D major)
I re (G major) member the day (D major) that I
(C major) earned my first (D major) pay,
(Dsus4) when I (C major) played in a (G major) small
pick (D major) -up band. (G major) (C major)
(G major) There I (C major) spent my youth, (D major)
and to (G major) tell you the (E minor) truth,
(D major) I was (C major) sad to leave (A minor) it (C major) all be (D major) hind me.
For I (G major) learned about (D major) life,
and it (C major) found me (E minor) a wife
(Dsus4) In (D major) the (C major) town I loved (G major) so (D major) well (G major) (E flat major)
But when (A flat major) I returned, (E flat major)
how my (D flat major) eyes have burned
(A flat major) To (D flat major) see how a town
(A flat major) could be brought to its (E flat major) (E flatsus4)
(E flat major) By the (A flat major) armoured cars
(E flat major) and the (D flat major) bombed out bars
(A flat major) And the (D flat major) gas that hangs
(A flat major) on to (E flat major) every breeze (A flat major)
(D flat major) Now (A flat major) the (D flat major) army's in (E flat major) stalled
By that (A flat major) old (E flat major) Cassiard (F minor) wall
An (E flat major) d the (D flat major) damned barbed (B flat minor) wire
Gets higher and (E flat major) higher
With their (A flat major) tanks and their (E flat major) guns
Oh my (F minor) god, what have they done
(A flat major) To the (D flat major) town I loved (A flat major) so (E flat major) well (A flat major)
Now the music's gone, (E flat major)
but (D flat major) they still carry on (A flat major)
Their (D flat major) spirit's been (A flat major) bruised,
(F minor) (A flat major) but never (D flat major) broken (A flat major)
(E flat major) They will not forget
(A flat major) But (D flat major) their hearts (A flat major) are set
(D flat major) On tomorrow and peace (A flat major) once (E flat major) again
(A flat major) For (D flat major) (A flat major) what's (D flat major) done is (E flat major) done
And what's (A flat major) won is (E flat major) won
(F minor) An (A flat major) d what's (D flat major) lost is
lost (B flat minor) and (E flat major) gone forever
I can (A flat major) only pray (E flat major) for a (D flat major) bride's (F minor) brand new day
(A flat major) In the (D flat major) town I loved (A flat major) so (E flat major) well (A flat major)
I can only pray (E flat major) for (D flat major) a bright brand -new day
(A flat major) in the (D flat major) town I loved (A flat major) so (E flat major) well. (D flat major) (A flat major) you
