From the "New Day" EP (1971)
Written by Phil Lynott

Tuning: Standard E
The whole song is just these chords fingerpicked on an acoustic.
Simple and very beautiful... At the bottom, you can see how each chord looks.
Intro: Am Bm G Am x3
EAfter our affair
F#mI swore
AThat I'd leave Dublin
Cmaj7/GAnd in that line I'd left behind
The years, the tears, the memories
And Ayou, in Dublin
EAt the quays
F#mFriends come
To Asay farewell
We'Cmaj7/Gd laugh and joke and smoke
And later on the boat
I'd Acry over you
Dsus2How ca

Of Cmaj7/GGrafton Street and Derby Square
And those of whom I care
And Ayou, in Dublin
