Verse
F C F C I was walking down a quiet road in Ireland F G Out beneath the tough old ancient stars Am F I thought I heard old Scottish Mike singing Carrickfergus C G As I recalled the wild days in those loud Norwegian bars
Verse
C F C F He'd sing, "I'm drunk today and I'm rarely sober C F G Like a soldier on the road to Mandalay" Am F C Well, the road it gave him wine and the women fair and fine G He drunk himself to death, I heard today
Chorus
C But we'll sing 'Hallelujah', sing it in the morning F Am G And thank the lord for giving one more day C F And for the ones who passed on through C F We'll sing this one for you G C Oh, the road it gives and the road it takes away

Verse
F C F My baby said she didn't mind me travelling C F G She enjoyed the time alone when I was gone Am F Until she looked me in the eye and said, it's over C G C And I saw the anger buried far too long
Verse
F C F I picked up my guitar and sang the Dutchman C F G About two people whose love had died away Am F But my baby she was gone, before the song was sung C G Well, my music never touched her anyway
Chorus
C And we'll sing 'Hallelujah', we'll sing it in the morning F Am G Oh, and thank the lord for giving one more day C F And for the ones who passed on through C F We'll sing this one for you G C Oh, the road it gives and the road it takes away F And for the ones who passed on through C F We'll sing this one for you G C Oh, the road it gives and the road it takes away
