We won't be together anymore

I want to hear the gulls on the southern seas
Ab D#
I want to make the rafters roar
Ab D#
And I'll trade this five-string banjo

For tobacco and a cuppa char

My grandfather showed me nothing

I tried to live my life as a good man

The rich up top and the poor below

Call it bad luck when the iceberg struck
Ab D#
And everybody looking for Carpathia

Pick me up and take me to America

Pick me up and take me to America

Blonde hair blew over your shoulder

If you water a flower, it grows

F A#
I saw the big ship leaving
D# Gm
Roxy saw it too
C
You were never bad enough for me, darling
Gm C D#
I was never good enough for you
[Verse]
F
Those little moments late at night
A#
When for no darn reason
D#
You'd wake up and fight
A# F D# A#
[Verse]
F A#
She said the castle was a mystery, could I tell her its history
D# Gm
What didn't I know
C
It's just a pile of stones, they've always been there
Gm C D#
I've never had a reason to go
[Verse]
F
Sometimes it's better just to follow your nose
A#
She was banging on the doors
D#
But the castle was closed
A# F D# A#
[Verse]
D7 D#
Goodness me, it's no distance from Antrim to Afland
D7 D#
We could leave the car here and all be in Scotland for tea
D7 D#
And Roxy looked for the ferry to take us to Dublin town
A# F A#
Oh, but it might have been better if they'd all just stayed here with me
[Verse]
F A#
Was that the rain on my back, was that the wind in my face
D# Gm
Was it the shingle shore
C
Or just sitting on the same wooden bench
Gm C D#
We'd shared back in 'seventy-four
[Verse]
F
I smoked, I told her some jokes
A#
Drank some whiskey and Cokes
D#
She got me drunk as a lord
A# F D# A#
F D# A#
[Verse]
D7 D#
Glory be, I hoped I'd be better than nothing
D7 D#
And if you want something pretty to look at, go look at that sea
D7
You had time on your hands and we loved the same bands
D#
You walked far too quickly, I could not hold hands
A# F A#
But if that's okay with you, darling, hey, it's okay by me
[Verse]
F A#
She said the castle was a mystery, could I tell her its history

Track 8 - The High Road
Capo 3
[Intro]
A#
[Verse]
F/A Gm A# D#
We all look busy, there's a certain type of sound around
A# D# F
Everyone is searching for the Dollar and the Pound
A# F/A Gm A#
And some have been to hell and back and some have gone to ground
D# F
And if someone will just help me from this chair
[Verse]
A# F/A Gm A#
The poor will count their money, or hide it all inside
D# A# D# F
And as I put the kettle on, I'll call my brother, Jack
A# F/A Gm A# D#
We will hit the high road and I will help him pack
A# F A#
He will live forever on the years he can't get back
[Verse]
F/A Gm A#
The flowers they look so pretty in their vase upon the table
D# A# D# F
G gentle illustration in his book of Celtic fables
A# F/A Gm A#
And I will feed him water ( ? ) as long as I am able
D# F
If someone will just help me from this chair
[Verse]
A# F/A Gm A#
And the young play so much louder as the rest of us grow older
D# A# D# F
Some will walk with Blackthorn stick and some may need a shoulder
A# F/A Gm A#
We will hit the high road and help each other out
D# A# F A#
And we will live forever on the years we can't get back
[Bridge]
F D# A#
Or the dream that came last Saturday, sure it was no dream at all
D# A# D# F
I will hear the west wind blow and watch the branches fall
A# F/A Gm A#
I will paint his quiet mountain with a wide and gentle track
D# A# F A#
So that we may live together on the years we can't get back
[Verse]
F/A Gm A#
The farmer ploughs a furrow, he may sow a seed in spring
D# A# D# F
The girl who strokes a mandolin, may well have a song to sing
A# F/A Gm A#
But the band that sings forever, wears a golden wedding ring
D# F
And if someone will just help me from this chair
[Verse]
A# F/A Gm A#
I will watch the flowers growing, I will see the tree in bloom
D# A# D# F
I will read from books of poetry, consumed around the room
A# F/A Gm A#
We will hit the high road to help each other out
D# A# F A#
And we will live forever on the years we can't get back
D# A# F A#
We will live forever on the years we can't get back

F D# A#
I saw you at 8:15 by the roundabout
F D# A#
And then again at the Butter Market too
F D#
I didn't even know that was your brother
A# F D# A#
Or if you'd changed your clothes and it was still you
[Verse]
F D# A#
You need to have more defining differences
F D# A#
Each one of you could be unique
F D# A#
But I don't really wanna change anything about you though
F D# A#
I just want to follow you and keep lots of notes on you now
[Chorus]

The great Southside twins

How we love the great Southside twins
F D#
The great Southside twins
A# F D# A#

Next month it'll be time for the May Fair
F D# A#
The best time of year here, they say
F D#
And you both will no doubt be there
A# F D# A#
Which is good for me, 'cause I can watch you all day
[Verse]
F D# A#
Last year I was gonna ask you not to leave early
F D# A#
I even thought about calling out to you
F D#
But I stopped 'cause you didn't even know me
A# F D# A#
Even if I know all about you
[Chorus]
F D#
The great Southside twins
A# F D# A#
How we love the great Southside twins
F D#
The great Southside twins
A# F D# A#
How we love the great Southside twins
[Verse]
F D# A#
And I just wanna let you know how proud I am
F D# A#
I spent four years watching you grow
F D#
Maybe you could text me on your whereabouts
A# F D# A#
Or if you get a new coat or hat and I don't know
[Verse]
F D#
Or maybe I should just keep my distance
A# F D# A#
The judge says I can't do this stuff anymore
F D# A#
But you know I'm never gonna let anybody harm you ever
F D# A#
I'm just watching your door in case you come outside
[Chorus]
F D#
The great Southside twins
A# F D# A#
How we love the great Southside twins
F D#
The great Southside twins
A# F D# A#
How we love the great Southside twins

How we love the great Southside twins
F D#
The great Southside twins
A# F D# A#
How we love the great Southside twins
[Outro]
F D# A#
The great Southside twins
F D# A#
The great Southside twins (it's always good to see you)
F D# A#
The great Southside twins (won't you come outside and see me)
F D# A#
The great Southside twins (because it's always good to see you)
F D# A#
The great Southside twins
Track 10 - Gloria
Capo 6
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
The smoke on the street from the hamburger stand, it's
A# F D#
Hurting her nose and her eyes
A# F Gm D#
Each doorway's a bedroom for Gloria now
A# F D#
And it's there that one day she may die
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
She sells her papers without ( ? ? ) off her
A# F D#
She sleeps every night in her clothes
A# F Gm D#
Gloria's out on the street tonight
A# F D#
It's the only life Gloria knows
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
Drinking, she'll dance for the man on her own, or
A# F D#
She'll go for a ride in their car
A# F Gm D#
And the seat's nice and warm when you've stood for so long
A# F D#
And those men ain't so bad before dark
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
But they never pay much and their touch is so rough
A# F D#
They say, she's no life in her soul
A# F Gm D#
Gloria's out on the street tonight
A# F D#
It's the only life Gloria knows
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
Her days on the street wear the shoes from her feet
A# F D#
And the wind puts a knife in her arm
A# F Gm D#
She grabs at his throat and refuses a coat
A# F D#
From a young man who means her no harm
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
She loved to chat, if the kids will chat back
A# F D#
But most of her time she's alone
A# F Gm D#
Gloria's out on the street tonight
A# F D#
It's the only life Gloria knows
[Instrumental]
A# F Gm D# A# F D#
A# F Gm D# A# F D#
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
She misses her brother, can't speak to her mother
A# F D#
Since her own father told her to go
A# F Gm D#
Evening is falling, she thinks about calling
A# F D#
But something inside her says 'no'
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
She spends her loose change on a bottle again
A# F D#
Drinks it all down in one go
A# F Gm D#
Gloria's out on the street tonight
A# F D#
It's the only life Gloria knows
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
There's trouble in life between husband and wife
A# F D#
And the bad days can bring you right down
A# F Gm D#
But be sure that you know where the little ones go
A# F D#
And always have enough love to go 'round
[Verse]
A# F Gm D#
Gloria sleeps in a doorway
A# F D#
And the wind bites her fingers and toes
A# F Gm D#
Gloria's out on the street tonight
A# F D#
It's the only life Gloria knows
A# F Gm D#
Gloria's out on the street tonight
A# F D#
It's the only life Gloria knows

Two in the morning without any warning
Gsus2 A7 Bm Em A7 Dm
I fell back in love with you
[Verse]
Gsus2 C
She was gathering clothes, quietly moving around
C/E Am F
She never seemed to take a moment, a little time for herself
Dm A#
Just to stop and do nothing, get back to her book
A7 Dm
Or let me pour a glass of wine
[Verse]
Gsus2 C
And as her hand brushed my table, well, I took it in mine
C/E Am F
She looked in my eyes, she whispered, "You're tired
Dm A#
Perhaps we should lie down, I'll go and find some Berlioz
A7
G little sleep and we'll be fine"
[Chorus]
D Gsus4 A7 D
It was one of those particular moments in my life
Gsus2 A7
Somewhere between midnight and blue
D Gsus2 A7 D
Two in the morning without any warning
Gsus2 A7 Bm Em A7
I fell back in love with you
[Chorus]
D Gsus4 A7 D
It was one of those particular moments in my life
Gsus2 A7
Somewhere between midnight and blue
D Gsus2 A7 D
Two in the morning without any warning
Gsus2 A7 Bm Em A7 Dm
I fell back in love with you
