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