                     D   
When my love said to me 
        C   G              D 
Meet me down by the gallow tree 
         C       G  D 
For it's sad news I bring 
              G7sus4   G                 D  
About this old town and all that it's offering 
         C9      G D  
Some say troubles abound 
        C9                 G                 D 
Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down 

              G      D 
One day we'll return here 
         C       G            D 
When the belfast child sings again 

( C  G  D ) 

                               D 
Brothers sisters where are you now 
     C9           G                  D 
As I look for you right through the crowd 
       C9       G     D 
All my life here I've spent 
       C9            G                     D 
With my faith in God the church and the government 
            C9     G D 
But there's sadness abound 
        C9                 G                 D 
Some day soon they're gonna pull the old town down 

             G      D 
One day we'll return here 
        C     G             D    C  G  D 
When the belfast child sings again 
        C     G             D    C  G  D

Come back mary, you've been away so long

The streets are empty, and your mother's gone

The girls are crying, it's been oh so long

And the war is raging, in the emerald isle 
                C9         G                      D 
That's flesh and blood man, that's flesh and blood 
                 C9     G                  D 
All the girls are crying but all's not lost 
               C9     G                    D 
The streets are empty, the streets are cold

Won't you come on home, won't you come on home
