This next song before we finish because it's been asked for by so many people.
It's a song I wrote for Daniel O'Donnell and apparently Daniel makes everybody in Ireland
on one day of the year a cup of tea.
I've no idea why he does that.
He never invites me to it
but apparently it's a wonderful day and he dances with the lady of his choice at the end of it and
he compliments me greatly because he dances and sings this song every year [F] and of course
one year the lady of his choice was Gloria Hunneford and so one balmy evening under the
under the Donegal moon and stars [A] Daniel O'Donnell and Gloria Hunneford danced to a song I'd written
and this is it and there's a fella asked me if I just before I sang this song would I
tell his wife how much he loves her.
Well he should tell himself really shouldn't he.
I mean I hardly know the woman you know but [C#m] people ask me to do those [Bm] things but
anyway this is [E] the song to all the beautiful [A] ladies in the world all of the ladies I've known
[E] all of the ones [A] I wished I had known [E] and all of those who wouldn't cross the [Bm] road to say hello
to me for that awful chance.
[E] We can all dream and [A] wish can't we.
[D]
[E] [A]
All the young [C#m] ladies with pearls [Bm] in
their hair [E] looked on by all the young men who were [A] there beautiful eyes [E] made in heaven [Bm] I guess
[E] silver and scarlet made up to impress [A]
with your dress cut plain [D]
dark hair the same
you [E] smile cost nothing at [A] all there are many young girls they're [D] graceful and tall
but [A] to me you're the [E] bell of the [A] ball I know we're old-fashioned [C#m] we're [D] dated and all
but to [A] me you're the [E] bell of the ball
[E] [A] hang your dream [B] on the nearest star
[Bm]
the busy dream maker will [E] know who you are [A] if he held a dance [A] as [Bm] far as the moon
the [E] first invitation would go out to [A] you with your dress cut plain
[D] dark hair the same you [E] smile cost nothing [A] at all there are many young girls
[C#m] they're [D] graceful and tall but to [A] me [E] you're the bell [A] of the ball I know we're old-fashioned
[D] we're dated and all but to [A] me you're the bell of the ball when
[E] I'm [A] lurking in the clouds
as [Bm] far as I see [E]
you stop the raindrops falling on me and those [A] who have mansions
have [Bm] nothing at all but [A]
I've got the [E] bell of the ball with your dress cut plain
[D] dark hair the same [E] you smile cost nothing [A] at all there are many young [C#m] girls
[D] they're graceful and tall but [A] to me [E] you're the bell of [A] the ball well I know we're old-fashioned
[D] we're dated and all but to [A] me you're the [E] bell of the [A] ball my love to me you're the [E] bell of them [A] all
that's it thank you then well [C#m] [E] [A]
thanks everybody
