   C       G      Am       G       C

Intro
   C       G      Am       G       C
VERSE 1
       C     G            Am         G      F      G         C
On the quiet banks of the Liffey and lakes, Dublin wrote her name.
       C              G             Am             G              F
On the broad backs of men, we never met with their pens and their stones,
     G       C
they did the same,
       C     G             Am            G            F
In the hours passed in the pubs, all the glasses were full and they were
G          C
wet to the sleeve.
        C            G            Am         G       F         G     C
And the eyes were so clear on the girl I met there,I swore I’d never leave.
CHORUS
        F                              G
And the young men who longed for these shores in a song,
         C      C/B   Am
All they wanted was a home,
      F                     G                        C     C/B Am
And I wanted one too with a girl eyes as blue as the light of dawn,
F              G                          C
Patiently, she waits there for me to come home.
VERSE 2
      C           G      Am             G              F           G
Was a bleary-eyed night, drunk from the lights and the sounds of a city
C
awake,
        C            G          Am        G               F              G
And she stood in the crowd, her face as a shroud, leaving nothing for my eye
   C
to take.
      C             G         Am              G          F
But a warmth was so clear, it betrayed her as nearly she glowed like those
G             C
lights on the bridge,
      C          G              Am           G              F           G
And a pain in my side, as I was drawn to her pride like the rise of the wind
       C
to the ridge.
CHORUS
        F                              G
And the young men who longed for these shores in a song,
         C      C/B   Am
All they wanted was a home,
      F                     G                        C     C/B Am
And I wanted one too with a girl eyes as blue as the light of dawn,
F              G                          C
Patiently, she waits there for me to come home.

VERSE 3 (stum full chords)
      C               G          Am           G             F
These waters have run red, these beaches have bled from the wounds at the
G             C
dark heart of man,
C               G                   Am            G          F
Daughters grown sharp, tongues like knives to the heart or a charm for the
G            C
curse of the land,
     C                G         Am                G              F
With prayers in their eyes, how well they've disguised that it's love
        G      C
they're giving away.
     C        G                 Am              G         F          G
But you might believe when your hard heart says leave but this one implores
       C
you to stay.
CHORUS
        F                              G
And the young men who longed for these girls with our songs,
       C      C/B   Am
All we wanted was a home.
F                      G                             C      C/B     Am
She wants one too with someone heart as true as this prison made of stone,
F              G                          C
Patiently, she waits there for me to come home,
F            G                      C
Patiently, I wait to be free and be home.
