The Town I Loved So Well
Tono: Original
[Verse]
G D C G
In my memory I will always see
C G D
The town that I have loved so well
G D C G
Where our school played ball by the gasyard wall
C G D G
And we laughed through the smoke and smell.
Em D C G
Going home in the rain running up the dark lane
C Am D
Past the jail and down beside the fountain
G D C G
Those were happy days in so many many ways
C G D G
In the town I loved so well.
[Verse]
G D C G
In the early morning the shirt factory horn
C G D
Called women from Creggan, the Moor and the Bog
G D C G
While the men on the dole played a mothers role
C G D G
Fed the children and then walked the dog
Em D C G
And when times got rough, there was just about enough
C Am D
But they saw it through without complaining
G D C G
For deep inside was a burning pride
C G D G
for the town I loved so well.
[Verse]
G D C G
There was music there in the Derry air
C G D
Like a language that we all could understand
G D C G
I remember the day when I earned my first pay
C G D G
as I played in a small pickup band
Em D C G
There I spent my youth and to tell you the truth
C Am D
I was sad to leave it all behind me
G D C G
For I'd learned about life and I'd found a wife
C G D G
In the town I loved so well.
[Verse]
G D C G
But when I returned, oh my eyes, how they had burned
C G D
To see how a town could be brought to it's knees
G D C G
By the armoured cars and the bombed out bars
C G D G
And the gas that hangs on to every breeze
Em D C G
Now the army's installed by that old gasyard wall
C Am D
And the damned barbed wire gets higher and higher
G D C G
With their tanks and guns, oh my God, what have they done
C G D G
To the town I loved so well.
[Verse]
G D C G
Now the music's gone but they carry on
C G D
For their spirit's been bruised, never broken
G D C G
Oh, they'll not forget still their hearts are set
C G D G
On tomorrow and peace once again
Em D C G
Now what's done is done and what's won is won
C Am7 D
And what's lost is lost and gone forever
G D C G
I can only pray for a bright brand new day
C G D G
In the town I loved so well.
