Bb  Dm  Cm  D#m

Bb                           Dm
If you wish to walk beside a boy who
                            Cm
Kicks his ball down cobbled lanes
                           D#m
And Mother’s worried sick to why he’s
Out this late again
Bb                           Dm
Sister knits a woolly hat for footprints
In the sand
    Eb
So careful where he sleeps
  D#m
A soul of Chapel Street
Bb                                 Dm
And if you wish to dance beside a girl
                                Cm
With playful pigtails in her hair
She writes a dozen letters
D#m
Dreams of when her love returns
Bb                               Dm
And as she whispers softly for a boy
Who’s hit the ground
      Eb
Well darling now he sleeps
  D#m
A soul of Chapel Street

Cm  F                        Bb
  161 Poppies race around my head
                                Gm
I’m running through the rows of red
   Eb  F                        Eb      Ebm  Bb
And 0161 for the souls of Chapel Street

Bb                                Dm
And if you wish to stand bеside a father
                              Cm
Dressеd in black from head to toe
                         D#m
He whistles lullabies and tells her he
Must go
Bb
He says that he’ll be back to make the
Dm
Angels in the snow
    Eb
But honey now he sleeps
  D#m
A soul of Chapel Street
Bb                                Dm
And if you wish to stand beside a boy
                                Cm
Who works with hands of soot and coal
He steals the master's muffins
D#m
Bloody knuckles tell the tale
Bb
He says that he’ll be bringing back
    Dm
The riches from the war
    Eb
But sweetie now he sleeps
  D#m
A soul of Chapel Street

Cm  F                        Bb
  161 Poppies race around my head
                                Gm
I’m running through the rows of red
   Eb  F                        Eb      Ebm  Bb
And 0161 for the souls of Chapel Street
   Cm  F                        Bb
And oh 161 poppies race around my head
Oh no
                                Gm
I’m running through the fields of green
   Eb  F                        Eb      Ebm  Bb
And 0161 for the souls of Chapel Street

Bb                                Dm
And if you wish to walk behind the boys
                              Cm
Who kick their ball down pebbled avenues
                  D#m
And honest smiles defy the Monday blues
Bb
But still I hear the sound of cobbles to
 Dm
Clogs and combat boots
            Eb
So careful where they sleep
    D#m
The souls of Chapel Street
