The Old Number 10 - Bernard Bolan
E
In the town that I once called me home,
G#m
It was early in winter; the evening was chill.
B
Just in for the day, and then far off tomorrow,
E
I'd just a few hours to kill.
Though I was indifferent, me feet were quite certain
G#m
Of just where they wanted to be:
B
It was off to the Old Number Ten where my friends
E
Would be drinking and waiting for me.
A G#m
I first had me doubts when the paint on the outside
A E
Was no longer peeling and old,
A G#m
And a sign that said gaily "Hot lunches served daily"
F#m B
Had the blood in me veins running cold.
CHORUS:
A E G#m walk up to C# in bass
You drinking men at the Old Number Ten,
A E
You seem such a long time ago.
A E G#m
You seem so much different since last time we met,
B walk down to G# walk up to E
But maybe it's me; I don't know.
E
Into the bar I went, ordered a jar and then
G#m
Looked for a face from the past,
B
But no one there knew me; the way they looked through me,
E
I might have been made out of glass.
I said "I used to come here, you know, years and years ago."
G#m
"Well, Sir, it must warm your heart
B
To see, how we've changed it and quite rearranged it
E
And got it all looking quite smart.
A G#m
"I can tell by your clothes you're a fella who knows
A E
The way a good pub should be run,
A G#m
With no spitting or swearing or overall-wearing
F#m B
Like the old days when you used to come".
A E G#m walk up to C# in bass
But you drinking men at the Old Number Ten,
A E
You seem such a long time ago.
A E G#m
You seem so much different since last time we met,
B walk down to G# walk up to E
But maybe it's me; I don't know.
With me heart feeling heavy as I was just ready
G#m
To finish me Guinness and go,
B
I saw an old face that glistened in the fire that had listened
E
To more tales than you'll ever know.
With the years in between, it was foolish to dream
G#m
That he'd ever remember my face,
B
But I bought him a beer and as I set it down near him,
E
The old man looked up from his place.
A G#m
"By Christ, is it thee?" he said. "Well, bugger me," he said.
A E
"Champion to see thee again!
A G#m
Isn't it strange how you just haven't changed?" I said.
F#m B
"Neither have you, me old friend."
A G#m
"Is it thee?" he said. "I'll go to sea" he said.
A E
"Champion to see thee again!
A G#m
Isn't it strange how you just haven't changed?" I said.
F#m B
"Neither have you, my old friend."
A E G#m walk up to C# in bass
But you drinking men at the Old Number Ten,
A E
You seem such a long time ago.
A E G#m
You seem so much different since last time we met,
B walk down to G# walk up to E
But maybe it's me; I don't know.
