Intro:
BB F#F# C#C# F#F#

Verse:
  BB   F#F#
I set my sails
    BB             F#F#
And betrothed, the wind will guide me
     BB          F#F#
To draw upon the North East shore
          C#C#
Of the emerald island
  BB  F#F#
County Down
    BB  F#F#
Where Bangor town
   BB       F#F#
Is now and forever calling
   BB        F#F#
And recalls me by the shore
       C#C#
At peace, in Silence

Chorus:
BB         C#C#    F#F#
I sit down by the water and I
C#C#
Glory at my host
    D#mD#m      C#C#    BB
Let the rivers roll over like lovers
         C#C#     F#F#
Oh brothers and sisters and I
BB
Good lord you know we need it most
  C#C#             F#F#     BB
Our minds are tethered but our hearts are wild
      F#F#   C#C#
In Bangor town
  F#F#    BB F#F#
County Down

C#C# BB F#F#

Verse:
   BB   F#F#
Let joys abound
     BB       F#F#
Back in Fealty’s bar on High Street
       BB        F#F#      C#C#
Where we’ll raise a glass to all a fair tomorrow
BB     F#F#
We’ll be found
 BB      F#F#
Amidst the sound
    BB       F#F#
Of our laughter ever roaring
    BB          F#F#
As we drink our fill where once
        C#C#
We drowned our sorrows

Chorus:
BB         C#C#    F#F#
I sit down by the water and I
C#C#
Glory at my host
    D#mD#m      C#C#    BB
Let the rivers roll over like lovers
         C#C#     F#F#
Oh brothers and sisters and I
BB
Good lord you know we need it most
  C#C#             F#F#     BB
Our minds are tethered but our hearts are wild
      F#F#   C#C#
In Bangor town
  F#F#    BB F#F#
County Down

C#C# BB F#F#

Verse:
      BB   F#F#
And where Jerry wails
     BB         F#F#
Writing signs outside the Helmsman
 BB        F#F#      C#C#
Beware you passers by what lays inside there
    BB   F#F#
Oh he testified
  BB   F#F#
And Julie cried
  BB       F#F#
Reminiscing on her story
  BB        F#F#      C#C#
Surrounded once by glory now by violence

Chorus:
BB         C#C#    F#F#
I sit down by the water and I
C#C#
Glory at my host
    D#mD#m      C#C#    BB
Let the rivers roll over like lovers
         C#C#     F#F#
Oh brothers and sisters and I
BB
Good lord you know we need it most
  C#C#             F#F#     BB
Our minds are tethered but our hearts are wild
      F#F#   C#C#
In Bangor town
  F#F#    BB F#F#
County Down
