C
G

smoke and the
F

Going home in the rain,
C
G
Am
running up a dark lane,
F
Dm
past the jane and down behind
G
Em
the fountain
Dm
C

Those were happy days,
F

in so many, many ways,
F

In the town I loved so well.

While the man on the dole
F

played the mother's role
F

Fed the children and then
G

trained the dogs
F

And one time, step -by -step,

For deep inside was a burning pride

C
G

In the town I loved so well
G

There was music there in the derry,
F

when I earned my first pay
F
C
G

When I played in a small pick -up band
F
G
There I spent my youth,
C
Am
and to tell you the truth
F
Dm
G
I was sore to leave it all behind me
Em
G

Now the armies in stone
C

Partied the long, gaseous wall
F

And the dead got wild and
G

sired and tired
G
C
G
Went to tanks and their guns,
F
C
oh my God, what have they done,
F

to the town I love so well.
Now the music's gone
For their spirit's been bruised,
never broken
They will not forget, but their hearts are set
G

to one of us again
F

For what's done is done,
C
Am
and what's won is won,
F
Dm
and what's lost is lost
G
Em
and gone forever.
G

I can only pray for a
F

bright brand -new day
