_ _ _ _ Last night as I [C] lay sleeping, _ [G] a dream came to my [C] mind
About _ [G] a place [C] I loved so [Am] well, _ [D] the town I left _ [G] behind
_ _ Down the years [C] I traveled, _ [G] to days so long [C] ago
I _ [G] swear to you, [C] I never saw [Am] _ [D] a face I didn't [G] know _ _ _ _ _
And sometimes, _ [D] when I'm lonesome, _ [G] I think of where I'm [C] from _
[G] On Cuba Street, [C] where old friends [Am] meet, _ [D] the Shannon where [G] we swam _
And I can see [D] that old barn road, [G] a turf pile to [C] the sky
Oh, [G] Banner, _ [C] you'll be my [Am] town [D] until the day [G] I die
Again _ _ _ _ I walked [C] the lustre fields, _ [G] where often I did [C] stray
And _ [G] once again [C] I saw old [Am] friends, [D] the friends of [G] yesterday
The _ Dolans and [C] the Lunums, _ _ [G] the Mallons and [C] the Rhines
_ [G] What memories _ [C] these days [Am] evoke, [D] of far off happy [G] times _ _ _ _ _ _
And sometimes, _ [D] when I'm lonesome, _ [G] I think of where I'm [C] from _
[G] On Cuba Street, [C] where old friends [Am] meet, _ [D] the Shannon where [G] we swam
And I can see [D] that old barn road, [G] a turf pile to [C] the sky _
[G] Oh, Banner, _ [C] you'll be my [Am] town _ [D] until the day [G] I die
_ _ _ _ _ And round the town [C] I wandered, _ _ [G] I knew my way [C] so well
_ _ _ [G] And then I saw [C] the old sports [Am] field, _ [D] where first I'd learned [G] to hurl
_ _ I heard the curlews, [C] a lonesome call, _ [G] across Callow [C] still
I [G] watched the crows [C] fly round the [Am] ruins _ [D] of Waller's Falling
[G] _ And _ _ _ _ _ sometimes, _ [D] when I'm lonesome, [G] I think of where [C] I'm from _
[G] On Cuba Street, [C] where old friends [Am] meet, _ [D] the Shannon where [G] we swam
And I can see [D] that old barn road, [G] a turf pile to [C] the sky
Oh, [G] Banner, you'll [C] be my [Am] town _ [D] until the day
_ [G] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ But now I'm in [C] St.
Louis, _ [G] it's here I've made [C] my home
_ _ [G] I've watched my life [C] drift slowly [Am] by, _ [D] I've seen my children [G] grow
_ _ And though this [C] land's been good to me, _ [G] and happiness [C] I've found
_ [G] Just one more time, [C] I'd like to [Am] see [D] the town I left [G] behind _ _ _ _ _
And sometimes, _ [D] when I'm lonesome, _ [G] I think of where [C] I'm from _
[G] On Cuba Street, [C] where old [Am] friends meet, [D] the Shannon where [G] we swam _
And I can see [D] that old barn road, [G] a turf pile to [C] the sky
Oh, [G] Banner, _ [C] you'll be my [Am] town _ [D] _ until the day
[G] _ And _ _ _ _ I can see [D] that old barn road, [G] a turf pile to [C] the sky
_ [G] Oh, Banner, _ you'll [C] be my [Am] town [D] until _ the day I [G] die _ _ _ _ _ _
