Verse 1
C
In my memory,
G
F
I will always see
C
F
C
Am
The town that I have loved so well
G
C
G
Where our kids played ball
F
by the old gas yard wall
C
F
And we ran through the
C
G
F
smoke an d the smell
C
G
Am
G
Go ing home in the rain,
F
C
running up the dark lane,
Dm
past the jail
F
G
and down behind the fountain.
C
Those were happy days
G
F
in so very many ways.
C
F
C
G
C
F
C
In the town I had loved so well
G
F
C
In the early morn, the shirt factory horn
F
C
It called wo men from the craggin'
Am
The moor and the bog
G
C
G
While the men on the dole
F
C
played a mother's role
F
They fed the children and
C
G
C
F
then walked the dog
C
Am
And when times got rough
G
F
There was just about enough
C
Dm
F
But they saw it through without
G

complaining
G
C
G
F
For deep inside was this burning pride
C
F
C
G
C
F
In the town I have loved so well
C
G
F
C
There was music there in the dairy air
F
C
Like a language that we,
G
Am
we could all understand
G
C
Bm
I remember the day
G
F
C
when I earned my first pay,
F
C
G
C
F
I played with a small pick -up band.
C
Am
G
There I'd spent my youth,
F
C
and to tell you the truth,
Dm
F
G
I was sad to leave it all behind me.
Gsus4
G
C
G
For I'd learned about life,
F
C
Found myself a wife
F
C
G
C
F
in the town I have loved so well.
C
But when I return,
Bm
G
F
how my eyes they burn
C
F
To see how a town
C
Am
can be brought to its knees
G
C
Bm
By the armored cars an
G
F
C
d the burnt out bars
F
C
G
C
And the gas that hangs on to every breeze
F
C
G
Am
G
Now the army's installed
F
C
by that same gas -yard wall
Dm
F
And that damned barbed wire
G
gets higher and higher
C
Bm
With their tanks and with their guns
G
F
C
Oh good God, look what they've done
F
C
G
C
To the town I have loved so well
F
G
Now the music's gone,
F
but they still carry on
C
F
For their spirit's been bruised,
G
never broken
C
G
They shall not forget,
F
though their hearts are set
C
F
On tomorrow when
C
G
C
F
peace comes again
C
Am
G
For what's done is done
F
And what's won is won
C
Dm
F
G
And what's lost is lost and gone forever
C
G
F
I can only pray for a bright,
bright brand -new day
C
F
C
G
In the town I have loved so well
C
