[G] [E] [B] [G#m]
[F#m] [A] [E]
As the train pulls [A] out today from Derry [E] City, a thousand memories linger in [B] my mind.
Why [A] do I need to go?
[E] It's such a pity.
[B] And all the dear [A] old friends I leave [E] behind, as I gaze beyond [A] the harbor I'm [E] recalling
Familiar names lack to hurt me [B] and toil.
[A] Through misty eyes I feel the [E] teardrops falling.
[B] Goodbye to my [A] old hometown [E] on the foyer.
[B] [A]
[B] [E]
The spire [A] of St.
Eugene seems [E] to vanish
In the distance o'er the city oh [B] so high, [A] my childhood thoughts I never [E] want to banish
When [B] I wondered if [A] it reaches to the [E] sky.
Many thousand miles [A] I'll travel on [E] my journey
To a new home on the wild Australian [B] soil.
[A] But never can I hope to [E] lose the yearning
To [B] return to my [A] old hometown [E] on the foyer.
[A] Oh never can I hope to [E] lose the yearning
To [B] return to my [A] old hometown [E] on the foyer.
[F#m] [A] [E]
