Last night as I [Db] lay sleeping, [Ab]
a dream came [Db] to my mind
[Ab] About a place [Db] I love [Bbm] so well, [Bb] [Eb] the town I [Ab] left behind
And down the [Db] years I wonder, [Ab] to days so long [Db] ago
I [Ab]
swear to you, [Db] I never [Bbm] saw [Eb] a face I [Ab] didn't know
And sometimes [Eb] when I'm lonesome, [Ab]
I think of where [Db] I'm from
[Ab] On Cuba Street, [Db] where [Bbm] all the friends meet, [Eb] the Shannon where [Ab] we swam
And I can see [Eb] that old bog [Ab] road with turf piled to [Db] the sky
[Ab] Oh, Banner, [Db] you'll be [Bbm] my town [Eb] until the day [Ab] I die
Again I walked [Db] the Lusma fields [Ab] where often I did [Eb] stray
[Ab] And once again [Db] I saw [Bbm] friends, [Bb]
[Eb] the friends of [Ab] yesterday
The Dolans [Db] and the Lunans, [Ab] the Malans and [Db] the Rhines
[Ab] What memories [Db]
these names evoke [Eb] of far-off [Ab] happy times
And sometimes [Eb] when I'm lonesome, [Ab] I think of where [Db] I'm from
[Ab] On Cuba Street, [Cm] where all [Bbm] the friends [Eb] meet, the Shannon where [Ab] we swam
And I can see [Eb] that old bog [Ab] road with turf piled to [Db] the sky
Oh, [Ab] Banner, [Db] you'll be [Bbm] my town [Eb] until the day [Ab] I die
Around the town [Db] I wandered,
[Ab] I knew my way [Db] so well
[Ab] Then I saw [Bbm] the old sports [Eb] field where first I [Ab] learned to hurl
I heard the curlews' [Db] lonesome crowd [Ab] across the callow [Db] still
I [Ab] watched the crows fly [Db] round [Bb] the ruins [Eb]
of Waller's [Ab] Falling Mill
And sometimes [Bb] when I'm lonesome, [Ab] I think of where [Db] I'm from
On [Ab]
Cuba Street, [Db] where all [Bbm] the friends meet, [Eb] the Shannon where [Ab] we swam
And I can see [Eb] that old bog [Ab] road with turf piled to [Db] the sky
[Ab] Oh, Banner, [Db] you'll be [Bbm] my town [Bb] until the day [Ab] I die
But now I'm in [Db] St.
Louis, [Ab] it's here I've made [Db] my home
[Ab] I've watched my life [Db] drift slowly [Bb] by, I've seen my [Ab] children grow
And though this land's [Db] been good to me [Ab] and happiness [Db] I've found
[Ab] Just one more time I'd like to see [Eb] the town I [Ab] left behind
And sometimes [Eb] when I'm lonesome, [Ab]
I think of where [Db] I'm from
On Cuba Street, [Db] where [Bbm] all the friends meet, [Eb] the Shannon where [Ab] we swam
And I can [Eb] see that old bog [Ab] road with turf piled to [Db] the sky
[Ab] Oh, Banner, [Db] you'll be [Bbm] my town [Bb]
until the day [Ab] I die
And I can see [Eb] that old bog [Ab] road with turf piled to [Db] the sky
[Ab] Oh, Banner, you'll be my [Bb] town [Fm]
[Eb] until the [Ab] day I die
[N]
a dream came [Db] to my mind
[Ab] About a place [Db] I love [Bbm] so well, [Bb] [Eb] the town I [Ab] left behind
And down the [Db] years I wonder, [Ab] to days so long [Db] ago
I [Ab]
swear to you, [Db] I never [Bbm] saw [Eb] a face I [Ab] didn't know
