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