Belfast Mill
[G] [D] [C] [G]
At the [G] East end of town
At the [Em] foot of the hill
There's a [D] chimney so tall
It says [C] Belfast [G] Mill.
But there's no smoke at all
Coming [Em] out of the stack
For the [D] mill has shut down
And is [C] never coming [G] back.
|[Chorus]
|[G] And the only tune I hear
|Is the [Em] sound of the wind
|As she [D] blows through the town
|Weave and [C] spin, weave and [G] spin.
[G] There's no children playing
In the [Em] dark narrow streets
And the [D] loom has shut down
It's so [C] quiet I can't [G] sleep.
The mill has shut down
'Twas the [Em] only life I know
Tell me [D] where will I go
Tell me [C] where will I [G] go.
|[Chorus]
|[G] And the only tune I hear
|Is the [Em] sound of the wind
|As she [D] blows through the town
|Weave and [C] spin, weave and [G] spin.
[G] I'm too old to work
And I'm [Em] too young to die
Tell me [D] where will I go now
My [C] family and [G] I.
[G] And the only tune I hear
Is the [Em] sound of the wind
As she [D] blows through the town
Weave and [C] spin, weave and [G] spin.
[Slowing down]
As she [D] blows through the town
Weave and [C] spin, weave and [G] spin.
