[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
Em 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

[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
Em 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

In Bangor town

[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
Em 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
