Breathe

Key: DMedium

16th ofD JAunAe,A nAinBme 0Bm fiBmve,Bm door bell rings

Man at the door says if I want to stay alive a bit longer

There?s a few things I need you to know. Three

Coming from a long line of travelling sales people on my mother?s

side

I wasn?t gonna buy just anyone?s cockatoo

So why would I invite a complete stranger into my home

Would you?

These days are better than that

GEvery .D.. day EI die again, and again I?m reborn

GEvery .D.. day EI have to find the courage

To Bmwalk Gout Dinto the strAeet

Ju Ju man, Ju Ju man

Doc says you?re fine, or dying

Please

Nine 0 nine, St John Divine, on the line, my pulse is fine

But I?m running down the road like loose electricity

While the band in my head plays a striptease

GThe rDoar that lEies on the other side of silence

GThe fDorest fEire that is fear so deny it

BmWalk Gout Dinto the strAeet

Sing your Bmheart Gout/The pDeople we mAeet

The Ballad Of The Ronnie Drew

Key: DMedium

F#m

HDere's to the Ronnie, the vGoice we adAore

Like cDoals from a coal bucket sGcraping the flAoor

SDing out his praises in mGusic and mAalt

And Dif you're not Irish, that Gisn't your fDauDltG A

RDaise up our voices like dGogs in a pAack

TDhankful for honest men Gwe never lAack

We gDot ?em by twenties, we gGot ?em by Aones

TDhem and their daughters and Gall of their soDnsD G A

Here's to yGou, Ronnie DrDew

Ronnie DrGew, we lF#move you, yes we dGo

Here's to yDou, Ronnie DrAew, here's to yDou

And whDat's it to any man whGether or nAo'

WhDether I'm easy or whGether I'm trAue

As I lDifted her petticoat Geasy and slAow

And I tDied up me sleeve for to bGuckle her shDoeD G A

GDet up and go at it, fGive until fAive

When the whDistle says budge it we Gcome back alAive

He'll sDing to the heavens, he's stGormy as hAell

And wherDever he goes, we'll be wGishing him weDllD G A

Here's to yGou, Ronnie DrDew

Ronnie DrGew, we lF#move you, yes we dGo

Here's to yDou, Ronnie DrAew, here's to yDou

The dAawn and the dust, the wise, the unjust

Kids in gEmambling games

The uAnheard, the unseen, the unwashed and unclean

Where the strEmeets all have names

BAaggers, street masons, street wagons to Stevens

With lEmovers and loners who can hear all intoners

The gAoths and the ravers, evil bids and traders

SEming out Ronnie Drew

A lDife for a life or a hGand for a hAand

TrDust in the music and strGike up the bAand

The mDore that we sing the lGess that we fAight

TDime and again this is prGoved to be rDigDhtG A

BDuild you a statue on St. StGephen's GrAeen

No fDairer monument Gere to be sAeen

The stDatue of Ronnie Drew hGolding the hAand

Of a gDirl with her hair in a blGack velvet baDndD G A

Here's to yGou, Ronnie DrDew

No stranger to devils or angles to tell

Here's to yGou, Ronnie DrDew

A friend of a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend to you

Ronnie DrGew, we lF#move you, yes we dGo

Here's to yDou, Ronnie DrAew, here's to yDou

Here's to yDou, Ronnie DrAew, here's to yDou, Ronnie Drew

And what's it to any man whether or no'

Whether I'm easy or whether I'm true

As I lifted her petticoat easy and slow

And I rolled up me sleeve for to buckle her shoe

A Sort Of Homecoming

GG2GG2

tonight, a high road, a high road out of here

D2D4DG

the city walls are all come down

the dust a smoke screen all around to see

faces ploughed like fields that once

gave no resistance

And we live by the side of the road

on the side of a hill as the valleys explode

dislocated, suffocated

the land grows weary of it's own

O come away, o come away, o come, o come away I say I hmm hmm

The wind will crack in wintertime

this bomb-blast lightning waltz

D2G6

no spoken words, just a scream . . . yeah.... oh........ oh.....

D2G6D2G6D4DGG2GG2

tonight we'll build a bridge across the sea and land

D2D4DG

she will die and live again tonight_______

GG2D2D4DGG6D2G6D4DG6D2G6D4D

through the rain and fallen snow

across the fields of morning

to a light that's in the distance

Oh don't sorrow, no don't weep

for tonight, at last
