C         Am         D
 

      G    D        C      G
In my memory I will always see
    C         G              D
The town that I have loved so well
          G             D           C       G
Where our school played ball by the gasyard wall
       C                   G     D       G
And we laughed through the smoke and the smell
      C           D             G     Gmaj7 Em   
Going home in the rain, running up the dark lane
         C        Am              D
Past the jail and down behind the fountain
           G     D          C         G
Those were happy days in so many many ways
       C      G     D  G
In the town I loved so well
 

G            D           C             G
In the early morning the shirt factory horn
       C          G                      D
Called women from Creggan, the Moor and the Bog
          G          D             C        G
While the men on the dole played a mother's role
        C            G    D           G
Fed the children and then trained the dog
         C         D                G    Gmaj7 Em   
And when times got tough, there was just about enough
          C     Am              D
But they saw it through without complaining
    G       D         C       G
For deep inside was a burning pride
       C      G     D  G
In the town I loved so well
 

G               D            C     G
There was music there in the Derry air
       C             G            G     D
Like a language that we all could understand
    G          D          C               G
I remember the day when I earned my first pay
     C           G     D      G
as I played in a small pickup band
        C        D            G    Gmaj7   Em   
There I spent my youth and to tell you the truth
      C      Am              D
I was sad to leave it all behind me
        G             D            C       G
For I'd learned about life and I'd found a wife
       C      G     D  G
In the town I loved so well
 

G             D            C                  G
But when I returned, oh my eyes, how they had burned
   C         G                             D
To see how a town could be brought to it's knees
       G        D            C          G
By the armoured cars and the bombed out bars
        C              G     D     G
And the gas that hangs on to every breeze
        C         D              G   Gmaj7   Em 
Now the army's installed by that old gasyard wall
        C             Am                   D
And the damned barbed wire gets higher and higher
           G         D           C                   G
With their tanks and guns, oh my God, what have they done
       C      G     D  G
To the town I loved so well

G               D             C     G
Now the music's gone but they carry on
          C             G              G  D
For their spirit's been bruised, never broken
            G   D                C          G
Oh, they'll not forget but their hearts are set
     C          G     D    G
On tomorrow and peace once again
           C       D               G Gmaj7 Em   
For what's done is done and what's won is won
           C       Am            D
And what's lost is lost and gone forever
      G    D          C                G
I can only pray for a bright brand new day
       C    G       D      G [rall.]
In the town I loved so well
