A D A Out on the Mira on warm afternoons E A D E Old men go fishing with black line and spoons A D A And if they catch nothing they'll never complain E A I wish I was with them again. D A As boys in their boats call to girls back on shore E A D E Teasing the ones that they dearly adore A D A And into the evening the courting begins E A I wish I was with them again.
Chorus:: D A Can you imagine a piece of the universe E A More fit for princes and kings? D A I'll trade you ten of your cities B E For Marion Bridge and the pleasure it brings A D A Out on the Mira on soft summer nights E A D E Bonfires blaze to the children's delight A D A They dance 'round the flames singing songs with their friends E A I wish I was with them again D A And over the ashes the stories are told E A D E Of witches and werewolves and Oak Island gold A D A The stars on the river they sparkle and spin E A I wish I was with them again Chorus:: D A Can you imagine a piece of the universe E A More fit for princes and kings? D A I'll trade you ten of your cities B E For Marion Bridge and the pleasure it brings A D A Out on the Mira the people are kind E A D E They'll treat you to home-brew and help you unwind A D A And if you come broken they'll see that you mend E A And I wish I was with them again D A So this I conclude with a wish you go well E A D E Sweet be your dreams, may your happiness swell A D A For I leave you here, for my journey begins E I'm going to be with them A E Going to be with them A E A
