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