The Broad Majestic Shannon The Pogues

D G D Bm D G A D

D G

The last time I saw you was down at the Greeks

D G Bm

There was whiskey on Sunday and tears on our cheeks

A D G

You sang me a song as pure as the breeze

D G A

on a road leading up Glenaveigh

D G

I sat for a while at the cross at Finnoe

D G Bm

Where young lovers would meet when the flowers were in bloom

A D G

Heard the men coming home from the fair at Shinrone

D G A D

Their hearts in Tipperary wherever they go

D G A

Take my hand, and dry your tears babe

D G A

Take my hand, forget your fears babe

D G A

There's no pain, there's no more sorrow

D G A

They're all gone, gone in the years babe

I sat for a while by the gap in the wall

Found a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball

Heard the cards being dealt, and the rosary called

And a fiddle playing Sean Dun na nGall

And the next time I see you we'll be down at the Greeks

There'll be whiskey on Sunday and tears on our cheeks

For it's stupid to laugh and it's useless to bawl

About a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball

D G A

So I walked as the day was dawning

D G A

Where small birds sang and leaves were falling

D G A

Where we once watched the row boats landing

D G A D

By the broad majestic Shannon

D G D Bm D G A D
