The Town I Loved So Well chords Paddy Reilly (Phil Coulter) Capo I
In my FmemoGry I will Falways Fsee the Ftown that FI have loved so Gwell Where our Fschool played Gball by the Fgas yard Fwall and we Flaughed through the Gsmoke and the Fsmell Going Fhome in the Grain, running Fup the dark Flane past the Fjail and down behind the Gfountain Those were Fhappy Gdays in so Fmany, many Fways in the Ftown I Floved Gso Fwell
In the early morning the shirt factory horn called women from Creggan, the Moor and the Bog While the men on the dole played a mother's role, fed the children and then trained the dogs And when times got tough there was just about enough But they saw it through without complaining For deep inside was a burning pride in the town I loved so well There was music there in the Derry air like a language that we all could understand I remember the day when I earned my first pay And I played in a small pick-up band There I spent my youth and to tell you the truth I was sad to leave it all behind me For I learned about life and I'd found a wife in the town I loved so well But when I returned how my eyes have burned to see how a town could be brought to its knees By the armoured cars and the bombed out bars and the gas that hangs on to every tree Now the army's installed by that old gasyard wall and the damned barbed wire gets higher and higher With their tanks and their guns, oh my God, what have they done to the town I loved so well Now the music's gone but they carry on For their spirit's been bruised, never broken They will not forget but their hearts are set on tomorrow and peace once again For what's done is done and what's won is won and what's lost is lost and gone forever I can only pray for a bright, brand new day in the town I loved so well Set8 http://sites.google.com/site/guitarmusicchordsandlyrics/
