Summer in Dublin - Bagatelle
[Verse 1]
Am
Take me away from the city
F G
Lead me to where I'll be on my own (Am)
Am
I wanted to see you but now that I have
F G
I just want to be left alone (Am)
G C
I'll always remember your kind words
Dm E7
And I'll still remember your name
Am F
But I've seen you changing and turning
G
And I know that things won't be the same (Am)
Instrumental:
G G
|[Chorus]
| C G
|I remember that summer in Dublin (Am)
| F C
|And the Liffey, yes, it stank like hell
| Dm Am
|And the young people walking on Grafton Street
| Dm
|And everyone looking so well (G)
| C G Am
|I was singing a song I heard somewhere
| F
|Called rock and roll never forgets (C)
|Dm Am
| When my humming was smothered by the 46A
| Dm
|And the scream of the low flying jets (G)
| C G Am
|So I jumped on a bus to Dun Laoghaire
| F C
|Stopping off to pick up my guitar
| Dm Am
|When a drunk on the bus told me how to get rich
| F G Am
|I was glad we weren't going too far
[Verse 2]
Am
So I'm leaving on Wednesday morning
F G
Trying to find a place where I can hear (Am)
Am
The wind and the birds and the sea on the rocks
F G Am
And the open road is always near
G C
And if sometimes I tire of the quiet
Dm E7
And I want to walk back up that hill
Am F
I'll just get on the road and I'll stick out my thumb
G Am
Cause I know for sure you'll be there still

I was glad we weren't going too far
