[Intro]
D


[Verse 1]
      D                            
I was down the bottom half of some 
    G           D
old bar in Chinatown
   D                             
Me shoes had brought the rain and 
            G                 A
soaked the space for lookin' down
   Bm                         G   
As drunk as love is lethal, I spun
         D
 a lady 'round
      D                     G     
And I kissed her 'neath the waking
      A           D
 of a Dublin City sky


[Verse 2]
    D                              
She threw her shoes into her bag 
  G                  D
and danced just like a dream
    D                              
Her face was rubied up just like no
 G            A
 sun I'd ever seen
    Bm                         
She said I was a phony, I said I 
G          D
could be mean

      D              G       A   
And I treated her so badly I made
         D
 my baby cry


[Verse 3]
    D                          G  
The January markets filled the 
               D
cold air with the sound
    D                            
The boys all full of laughter and 
       G               A
their pocket with the pound
    Bm                         
And in the foggy dew, I saw you 
 G                D
throwing shapes around
       D              G           
It was underneath the waking of a 
A           D
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 
 G                D
throwing shapes around
       D              G

Em9     Em7                A
        Altogether now
