Sunrise

C     F       Am    G
I was born in Londonderry
Em    Am      F     G    Em
I was born in Derry City too
   C      Am     F
Oh what a special child
   Dm       Am         C        G
To see such things and still to smile
  C         F         G         F
I knew that there was something wrong
    C       F      G        F       Em      G G7
But I kept my head down and carried on


[Verse 2]

C      F     Am   G
I grew up in Enniskillen
Em     Am    F    G          Em
I grew up in Inis Ceithleann too
   C      Am     F
Oh what a clever boy
   Dm         Am       C    G
To watch your hometown be destroyed

  C         F       G        F
I knew that I would not stay long
   C      F       G        F       Em       G G7
So I kept my head down and carried on


[Verse 3]

    C           F        Am      G
Who cares where national borders lie
Em              Am          F        G
Who cares whose laws you're governed by
    G          Em       Am     F
Who cares what name you call a town
       Dm        Em         F      G         C
Who'll care when you're six feet beneath the ground

[Verse 4]

C        F      G     F
From the corner of my eye
  C       F       G         F
A hint of blue in the black sky
  C      F       G       F
A ray of hope, a beam of light
   C      F      G        F
An end to thirty years of night
    C            F         G        F
The church-bells ring, the children sing
     C       F           G         F
What is this strange and beautiful thing

         C   F         G
E|t's| the sunri----------se 

        F       C   F           G
Can you see the sunri---------se?
      F       C    F        G
I can see the sunri----------se,
      F       C    F      G    F
I can see the sunri------------sing
