Mad Lady & Me - Jimmy McCarthy
[Verse]
aEmmong the walls and ruins
Cof the horrid civic stone
B7I walked without a lover
fCor my B7older bEmones
TEmhe sun was strong in going down
ItC was a dreamlike day
ItB7's there I met the Trinity
and tChere I B7heard themEm say
[Chorus]
She said:
BGye bye mamDma
GCoodbye brother JohEmn
FGare thee well ye SDhandon Bells
RCing on rEming on
[Verse]
SEmhe leaned and leaned much closer
ACnd she hugged us all goodbye
HB7er mother cried "don't go my love"
WeC all musB7 by and by Em
aEm drunken tongue said "leave her off"
sChe'll drive us all crazy
sB7he turned around and saw my face
aCnd both of uB7s was shEme
[Chorus]
She said:
BGye bye mamDma
GCoodbye brother JohEmn
FGare thee well ye SDhandon Bells
RCing on rEming on
[Verse]
uEmp and to the limestone wall
aCnd down the level steps
sB7he threw herself into the stream
wCith a splash B7and no regreEmts
sEmide stroke swimming midstream
tChrowing kisses to the crowd
aB7nd everything was silent
aCnd the sky had B7not one clEmoud
[Chorus]
She said:
BGye bye mamDma
GCoodbye brother JohEmn
FGare thee well ye SDhandon Bells
RCing on rEming on
[Verse]
wGe were swimming out in the suDnset,
wCe were swimming out tEmo sea,
sGwimming down by the ODpera House
TChe Mad Lady aEmnd me.
[Chorus]
She said:
BGye bye mamDma
GCoodbye brother JohEmn
FGare thee well ye SDhandon Bells
RCing on rEming on
