[Verse 1]
G# D#m7
Been thinking about this thing since way back in '69
G# G#m7
Trying to get a pitch on it, trying to get a line
C# A#m D# D#m7
All I really wanna see are the lights in Belfast Town

[Verse 2]
G# D#m7
Time to feel with our hearts, think with our heads
G# G#m7
Time to bury differences, instead of burying dead
C# A#m D# D#m7
Time to put our hands together, in big old Belfast Town
G# C#
[Chorus]

When the gun goes down, spirits rise

Skylarks sing in a clear blue sky
G# C# G#/C A#m D#m7
Shadows lift and the sun wears a crown
G# C# D#m7
[Verse 3]
G# D#m7
Maybe we can end up more than just good friends
G# G#m7
Been through a lot of bad old times, sometimes thought they'd never end
C# A#m D# D#m7
Time to put our hearts together in big old Belfast Town
G# C#
[Chorus]

When the gun goes down, spirits rise

Shadows lift and the sun wears a smile

[Verse 4]
G# D#m7
Call me romantic, call me a clown
G# G#m7
Listen to your own still voice, before you put me down
C# A#m D# D#m7
Whoever said romance was dead, never been to Belfast Town
G# C# A#m D#m7
