I love so well.
[E]
[A] In my memory, [D] I will always see [F#m]
the [D] town that [A] I have loved so [E] well.
[A] For our school [E] played ball [D] by the gas [A] yard wall.
[D] And we laughed [A] through the smoke and the smell.
Going home to [E]
[A] the dark [F#m] lane, past the [D] gym [Bm] and down [B] behind.
[E]
Those [A] were happy [E]
days [D] in so many, many [A]
ways.
In the [D] town I [A] loved [E] so [A] well.
In the air,
[E] the [D] shirt factory horn, all women crying.
The moor
[E] [A]
[E] played [D] them all,
[A] fed [D] the children [A] and.
[E] [A]
And when times [E] got rough, [A] there was just about [F#m] enough.
[D] But they saw it [B] through a [E] compliment.
[A] For deep
[E] inside [D] was a burning [A] pride.
[D] For the town [A] I loved so well.
There was [E] music there in the [D]
dairy [A] air.
[D] Like a language [A] that we all could all.
[E] [A] I remember [E] the day [D] I earned my [A] first pay.
[D] When I played in [A] the small, little bar.
There I spent,
[E] [A] and to tell you [F#m] the truth.
[D] I was sad [Bm] to leave it all [E] behind me.
[A] For I learned
[E] [D] and I found me [A] a wife.
[D] In the town [A] I loved so well.
But when I
[E] returned, [D] how my [A] eyes did burn.
[D] To see [A] how a town could be brought to [E] its knees.
[A] By the
[E] archers [D] and the bombs [A] [D] and that gas.
That [A] hangs on to every breeze.
Now the army's [E] installed [A] by the old gas [F#m] yard wall.
And [D] the downed [B] barbed wire gets higher [E] and higher.
With [A] their tines [E] and guns, oh [D] my God, what have [A] they done.
To [D] the town I [A] loved [E] so well.
[A]
Now the [E] music's gone, still [D] they carry [A] on.
For [D] their spirits been [A] bruised, never broke.
[E] Though [A] they're not free [E] yet, still [D] their hearts are [A] set.
On [D] tomorrow and [A] peace [E] once [A] again.
For what's done [E] is done, and [A] what's won is [F#m] won.
And [D] what's lost is [B] lost and gone [E] forever.
[F#]
[E] I [A] can only [E] pray for [D] a bright brand [A] new day.
In the town I loved [E] so [A] well.
