C# G# D# G#
[Verse]
C# G#
I set my sails
C# G#
And betrothed, the wind will guide me
C# G#
To draw upon the North East shore
D#
Of the emerald island
C# G#
County Down
C# G#
Where Bangor town
C# G#
Is now and forever calling
C# G#
And recalls me by the shore
D#
At peace, in Silence
[Chorus]
C# D# G#
I sit down by the water and I
D#
Glory at my host
Fm D# C#
Let the rivers roll over like lovers
D# G#
Oh brothers and sisters and I
C#
Good lord you know we need it most
D# G# C#
Our minds are tethered but our hearts are wild
G# D#
In Bangor town
G# C# G#
County Down
D# C# G#
[Verse]
C# G#
Let joys abound
C# G#
Back in Fealty’s bar on High Street
C# G# D#
Where we’ll raise a glass to all a fair tomorrow
C# G#
We’ll be found
C# G#
Amidst the sound
C# G#
Of our laughter ever roaring
C# G#
As we drink our fill where once
D#
We drowned our sorrows
[Chorus]
C# D# G#
I sit down by the water and I
D#
Glory at my host
Fm D# C#
Let the rivers roll over like lovers
D# G#
Oh brothers and sisters and I
C#
Good lord you know we need it most
D# G# C#
Our minds are tethered but our hearts are wild
G# D#
In Bangor town
G# C# G#
County Down
D# C# G#
[Verse]
C# G#
And where Jerry wails
C# G#
Writing signs outside the Helmsman
C# G# D#
Beware you passers by what lays inside there
C# G#
Oh he testified
C# G#
And Julie cried
C# G#
Reminiscing on her story
C# G# D#
Surrounded once by glory now by violence
[Chorus]
C# D# G#
I sit down by the water and I
D#
Glory at my host
Fm D# C#
Let the rivers roll over like lovers
D# G#
Oh brothers and sisters and I
C#
Good lord you know we need it most
D# G# C#
Our minds are tethered but our hearts are wild
G# D#
In Bangor town
G# C# G#
County Down
