♫ Verse 1:
  G                 C
She put it right between my lips and I bit down with the light
   G                 D
And I asked her had she anything and she handed me a light
  G                  C
And with that light I took a drag and I watched the world go by
G                   D       G
You were mine and I was yours and our limit was the sky

♫ Chorus:
G    C          G
 And we watched, the time go by
                     D
Well I told her ask me anything, and 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                C
Well we cantered on by the statue where once Phil Lynott stood
  G            D
Met by a scobe being hoisted outside Mary's Pub
   G               C
We'd never seen the like before, a rare scene so daft
  G              D         G
The cobbles were lit up by the enchantment of your laugh


♫ Chorus:
G    C          G
 And we watched, the time go by
                     D
Well I told her ask me anything, and 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 3:
    G                 C
Well we watched the buskers play a tune on lower Grafton Street
   G                D
And I tried to grab your finger but I wasn't so discrete
  G                   C
You smiled, embraced my hand and pulled me into some old bar
  G                   D         G
We drank a drop and we twirled and talked about our lives so far


♫ Chorus:
G    C          G
 And we watched, the time go by
                     D
Well I told her ask me anything, and 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 4:
  G                 C
He swallowed down his last drop and began to feel the heat
    G               D
And he gestured to the barman that it was his time to leave
    G                C
With a cap upon his head he thought of home in Skibbereen
  G                    D       G
He said we were the finest couple that his eyes had ever seen


♫ Chorus:
G    C          G
 And we watched, the time go by
                     D
Well I told her ask me anything, and 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 5:
G                  C
Now she boards her plane back to her home in Amsterdam
    G              D
She'll study for the year before returning to our 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:
G    C          G
 And we watched, the time go by
                     D
Well I told her ask me anything, and 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
