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