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