Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: SUMMER IN DUBLIN (Liam Reilly)
This is the way I play. Not sure if it's right but it seems to work.

SUMMER IN DUBLIN
..........................................................Em
Take me away from the city
...........C...........D........Em
Lead me to where I can be on my own

I wanted to see you but now that I have
..C............D.......Em
I just want to be left alone
.....C.........D..........Em
I'll always remember your kind words
.........Am..................B7
And I'll still remember your name
....Em
But I've seen you changing and turning
......C................D............Em
And I know that things won't be the same


Chorus
D-C-B-A-G run

..G.......................Em
I remember that summer in Dublin
........C...............D..........G
And the Liffey, yes, it stank like hell
........Am......................Em
And the young people walking on Grafton Street
....C...................D
And everyone looking so well
G............................Em
I was singing a song I heard somewhere
.......C.............D.....G
Called rock and roll never forgets
........Am...........................Em
When my humming was smothered by the 46A
........C........................D
And the scream of the low flying jets
G...........................Em
So I jumped on a bus to Dun Laoghaire
.........C...........D.....G
Stopping off to pick up my guitar
.......Am.......................Em
When a drunk on the bus told me how to get rich
......C...............D........G....Em
I was glad we weren't going to far

Em
So I'm leaving on Wednesday morning
..........C..................D.....Em
Trying to find a place where I can hear

The wind and the birds and the sea on the rocks
........C............D......Em
And the open road is always near
.......C...........D...........G
And if sometimes I tire of the quiet
......Am........................B7
And I want to walk back up that hill
..........Em
I'll just get on the road and I'll stick out my thumb
........C.............D...............Em
Cause I know for sure you'll be there still

Chorus
