Dublin In The Rare Old Times (The Rare Old Times) chords
Pete St. John (as performed by the Dubliners)
GRaised on songs and CstorGies Em
Heroes of reCknownG
The passing tales and CglorGies
That once was CDublin Dtown
The Ghallowed halls and ChousGes
The Emhaunting children's Crhymes
That Gonce was part CDublin
In the Drare old Gtimes
GRing a ring a CrosGie Em
As the light deCclines
I reGmember Dublin CCiGty
In the Drare old Gtimes
My Gname it is Sean CDempGsey Em
As Dublin as could Cbe G
Born hard and late in CPimliGco
In a house that's Cceased to Dbe
By Gtrade I was a CcooGper
Lost Emout to redundanCcy
Like my Ghouse that fell to Cprogress
My Dtrade's a memoGry
I Gcourted Peggy CDiagGnam Em
As pretty as you CpleaseG
A gentle child of CMaGry
From the rebel CliberDties
I Glost her to a Cstudent Gchap
With Emskin as black as Ccoal
When he Gtook her off to CBirmingham
She Dtook away my Gsoul
GRing a ring a CrosGie Em
As the light deCclines
I reGmember Dublin CCiGty
In the Drare old Gtimes
The years have made me bitter
The gargles dims me brain
'Cause Dublin keeps on changing
And nothing stays the same
The Pillar and the Met have gone
The Royal long since pulled down
As the great and unyielding concrete
Makes a city of my town
GRing a ring a CrosGie Em
As the light deCclines
I reGmember Dublin CCiGty
In the Drare old Gtimes
Fare thee well sweet Anna Liffey
I can no longer stay
And watch the new glass cages
That spring up along the quay
My mind's too full of memories
Too old to hear new chimes
I'm a part of what was Dublim
In the rare old times
GRing a ring a CrosGie Em
As the light deCclines
I reGmember Dublin CCiGty
In the Drare old Gtimes
