Irish Tenors Town I Love So Well chords
Start Jamming...
In my memory [G#]
I will [C#] always see [G#] the town [C#]
I [D#] have loved [G#] so well.
[C#] Where the school [G#] played ball by [F#] the gas [C#] yard wall.
And we laughed through the [G#] smoke and [C#] the snow.
[G#] [A#m] In home [F] in [F#] the [G#] rain, [C#] running up [Fm] the [A#m] dark lane.
Past [F#] the [Fm] jail [D#m] and down [F#] behind [G#] the fountain.
[F#] [G#]
They were [C#] happy [G#] days in so [G#] many, many [C#]
ways.
The town I [G#] loved so [C#] well.
In the [G#] early morn, [F#] the church factory [C#]
hall.
[F#] Called women [C#] from Trigger, [A#m] Moore [G#] and above.
[C#] While [G#]
Menardolle played [F#] a Mars [C#]
role.
Said [F#] the children and [C#]
walked the dog.
[A#m] But when times [D#] got rough, [G#m] there [C#] was just a fire.
[A#m]
[F#] And they saw [D#m] a way through [G#] without complaining.
For [C#] deep [G#]
inside was [F#] a burning [C#]
pride.
For [F#] the town [C#] I [G#] loved so [C#] well.
There was music [G#]
from [F#] the dairy.
[G#]
A [F#] collagery [C#]
all [A#] could understand.
I [C#] remember the [G#] day [F#] I left pay.
As I [F#] played in [C#] a [G#] small pickup [C#] band.
Then [A#m] I spent [D#] my [G#m] youth.
[C#] And to [F] tell you [A#m] the [C#] truth.
I [F#] was sad [D#m] to leave it all [G#]
behind [D#m] me.
[G#] For [C#] I learned about [G#] life.
And [F#] I found myself [C#] a wife.
In [F#] the town [C#] I [G#] loved so [C#] well.
[A#m]
[Fm] [F#]
[A] But [D] when I [A] returned.
[D] All my [G] eyes have burned.
To [G] see [D] how a land [Bm] could be brought [A] to a tee.
With [D] their armored [A] cars.
And [G] their bombed out [D] farms.
And their [G]
guns, [D] their guns on to their babies.
[Bm] While the young [E] didn't stop.
[A] [D] By their cast-iron [Bm] tools.
[G] And their guns [Em] burned more and more.
[A] With their [D] tanks and [A] their guns.
[G] Oh my God, what have they [D] done.
To the [G]
town I [D] loved [A] so.
[D]
Now the news is [F#m] gone.
[G] But they still carry [D] on.
Their spirits being [A] brewed.
[Bm] Never [G#] broken.
They will [Dm] not forget.
[G] But their hearts are [D] all set.
On [G] tomorrow and [A] peace once [D] again.
What [Bm] now is [Am] done.
[D] And what's [F#] won [Bm] is won.
Done [G] what's right is [Em] never.
[A]
I [D] can only [A] pray.
[G]
[D] In the town [D] I loved [A] so well.
[Bm]
[A#] [E] [D]
I love you.
[N]
