Dublin In My Tears http://dublincityramblers.com/ G I have travelled many lands,and I still don't understand C Am D How sad you have become on my return G Your poor heart is filled with care,sad and old they left you there D D7 G Your once bright eyes with sorrow softly burn C G I can even sense the change in the sound of childrens games D D7 G G7 And the dreams of youth's ambitions have all turned to doubt and fear C G It's an age of wealth Im told but I've never felt so old D D7 G As I recall old Dublin in my tears G All the faces that I meet as I roam each one way street C Am D Reflect the empty statements of our time G And the old cathedral bell can't be heard above the swell D D7 G For the years arranged a message in her chimes C G All my childhood friends are gone,like the street where I was born D D7 G G7 And the time that it has taken doesn't seem so long ago C G They have faded in the gloom like 'Sap Kelly' from the Coombe D D7 G Like the ghost of dear old Dublin in my tears. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-dublin-city-ramblers/364513.html ] G There were times when jobs were few,there were hungry days we knew C Am D Some days so bad their memory I've cursed G And the prayer I said to God,there on board the Princess Maud D D7 G That our children would restore the pride we lost C G But the past we all forsake while we're dancing at her wake D D7 G G7 And the heart of Dublin's dying,but no body seems to care, C G And the fools as they pass by,laugh to see an old man cry D D7 G But I can't forget old Dublin in my tears G Gather round brave men and true,though our numbers may be few C Am D We'll drink one toast before I cross the foam G For soon in London's dark domain,I'll recall how I became D D7 G No more a stranger there that here at home C G But the liffey flows along and I listen for her song D D7 G G7 And the voice of young James Larkin seems to echo in my ears C G But its just the rafters ring,to it's requiem I'll sing D D7 G Farewell to dear old Dublin in my tears, D D7 C G......
