Let me tell you a story [A] of someone I know, [E] someone that I met many years [B] long ago.
[E] He's played music for many [A]
all over this land, [E] and he's special [B] to me, [E] the old accordion man.
He's played reels for the dancing, [A] for young and for old.
[E] He's had stories to tell as his memories [B]
unfold.
And [E] he's travelled the road, [A] and I now understand why [E] he's special [B] to me, the [E] old accordion man.
[B] He'll play songs that will take you [A] away back [E] in time, [A] like Maggie, [E] Dark Island, and Mother [B] of Mine.
But [C#] [E] of all the fine medleys [A] and songs he can play, [E]
Dark Loch [B] Ngar [E] stays in my heart today.
