Capo: 6 Tuning: E A D G B E
Open to any changes. This is my interpretation of the song from watching some of their videos where they play it live and by listening to it. The fingerpicking pattern I have been using is picking bass note followed by 32123. So G chord would be picked 632123 C chord 532123 D chord 432123 Most of the chords are picked for 2 patterns before changing. [Intro] G G C D G G C D* [Verse 1]
She Gput it right between my lips and I Cbit down with the light And I Gasked her had she anything and she Dhanded me a light And Gwith that light I took a drag and I Cwatched the world go by GYou were mine and I was yours and our Dlimit was the Gsky
[Chorus]
G And we Cwatched, the time go Gby Well I told her ask me anything, and she Dasked me how to cry And Gwhen I think of you I know forCever I will be GHappy as the fool because toDgether we are Gfree
[Verse 2]
Well we Gcantered on by the statue where Conce Phil Lynott stood Met Gby a scobe being hoisted Doutside Mary's Pub We'd Gnever seen the like before, a Crare scene so daft The Gcobbles were lit up by the enDchantment of your Glaugh
[Chorus]
G And we Cwatched, the time go Gby Well I told her ask me anything, and she Dasked me how to cry And Gwhen I think of you I know forCever I will be GHappy as the fool because toDgether we are Gfree
[Verse 3]
Well we Gwatched the buskers play a tune on Clower Grafton Street And I Gtried to grab your finger but I Dwasn't so discrete You Gsmiled, embraced my hand and pulled me Cinto some old bar We Gdrank a drop and we twirled and talked Dabout our lives so Gfar
[Chorus]
G And we Cwatched, the time go Gby Well I told her ask me anything, and she Dasked me how to cry And Gwhen I think of you I know forCever I will be GHappy as the fool because toDgether we are Gfree
[Verse 4]
He Gswallowed down his last drop and beCgan to feel the heat And he Ggestured to the barman that it Dwas his time to leave With a Gcap upon his head he thought of Chome in Skibbereen He Gsaid we were the finest couple that his Deyes had ever Gseen
[Chorus]
G And we Cwatched, the time go Gby Well I told her ask me anything, and she Dasked me how to cry And Gwhen I think of you I know forCever I will be GHappy as the fool because toDgether we are Gfree

GNow she boards her plane back to her Chome in Amsterdam She'll Gstudy for the year before reDturning to our land She Gsaid she loves a man and he is Cstationed far away With Ghim her precious love she says forDever it will Gstay
[Chorus]
G And we Cwatched, the time go Gby Well I told her ask me anything, and she Dasked me how to cry And Gwhen I think of you I know forCever I will be GHappy as the fool because toDgether we are Gfree
