[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D G D
I was down the bottom half of some old bar in Chinatown
D G A
Me shoes had brought the rain and soaked the space for lookin' down
Bm G D
As drunk as love is lethal, I spun a lady 'round
D G A D
And I kissed her 'neath the waking of a Dublin City sky
[Verse 2]
D G D
She threw her shoes into her bag and danced just like a dream
D G A
Her face was rubied up just like no sun I'd ever seen
Bm G D
She said I was a phony, I said I could be mean
D G A D
And I treated her so badly I made my baby cry
[Verse 3]
D G D
The January markets filled the cold air with the sound
D G A
The boys all full of laughter and their pocket with the pound
Bm G D
And in the foggy dew, I saw you throwing shapes around
D G A D
It was underneath the waking of a Dublin City sky
[Chorus]
Em9 Em7
And it all makes sour
A
To watch my lover wrap her arms around the flag of power
Em9 Em7
Hurry now you will
A
To know you is to love you and I love you even still
Em9 Em7
But we'll never truly be
A
We trip along disaster in the whirlwind of the free
Em9 Em7 A
Altogether now
[Verse 4]
D G D

And in the foggy dew, I saw you throwing shapes around
D G A D
It was underneath the waking of a Dublin City sky
[Chorus]
Em9 Em7
And it all makes sour
A
To watch my lover wrap her arms around the flag of power
Em9 Em7
Hurry now you will
A
To know you is to love you and I love you even still
Em9 Em7
But we'll never truly be
A
We trip along disaster in the whirlwind of the free
Em9 Em7 A
Altogether now
