Mary’s Pub - Amble Intro] G C D [Verse 1] G C D G She put it right between my lips C And I bit down with the light G And I asked her had she anything D She handed me a light G And with that light I took a drag C And I watched the world go by G You were mine and I was yours D G And our limit was the sky [Chorus] C G And we watched time go by Well I told her ask me anything D She asked me how to cry G C And when I think of you I know forever I will be G D G Happy as the fool because together we are free [Verse 2] G Well we cantered on by the statue C Where once Phil Lynott stood G D Met by his scobie being hoisted outside Mary's Pub G He'd never seen the like before C Rare seemed so daft G D G And the cobbles were lit up by the enchantment of your laugh [Chorus] [Verse 3] G C Well we watched the buskers play a tune in lower Grafton Street G D And I tried to grab your finger but I wasn't so discreet G C You smiled and braced my hand and pulled me into some old bar G D G And we drank a drop and we twirled and talked about our lives so far [Chorus] [Verse 4] G Well he swallowed down his last drop C And began to feel the heat G D And he gestured to the bar man that it was his time to leave G C With a cap upon his head he thought of home in Skibbereen G D G Said we were the finest couple that his eyes had ever seen [Chorus] [Bridge] G C G D G C G D G [Verse 5] G C And as she boards her plane back to her home in Amsterdam G D She'll study for the year, before turning to her land G C She said she loves a man and he is stationed far away G D G With him her precious love, she says, forever it will stay [Chorus]
