Вступление
[Intro]
E F#m A
[Verse 1]
E
When I landed on two feet I'd just turned nineteen
F#m A
My head in the clouds with an old singin' dream
E
The crowd down below me they spun round and round
F#m A
The microphone smelt like a rusty old pound
[Verse 2]
E
We started a scene, and the feelin' was right
F#m A
Feedback an' debauchery all through the night
E
I'm leaving you now dear it won't be for long
F#m A
When I return I'll have finished this song
[Chorus 1]
F#m A
The years start to fly
F#m A
Sometimes friendships die
F#m A E
And sometimes they go to heaven and you don’t know why
[Verse 3]
E
I danced up and down Vicar Street, nothin' seemed far
F#m A
My comrade drove by me in his wee blue car
E
The delivery team they were never on time
F#m A
Some liked a smoke and some liked a line
[Verse 4]
E
The ceiling got sticky with an aura of hell
F#m A
And the queue for the toilets like a carousel
E
As I look back now on that reckless young haze
F#m A
I'll never forget the Vicar Street days
[Chorus 2]
F#m A
The years start to fly
F#m A
Sometimes friendships die
F#m A B7
Sometimes they go to heaven and you touch the sky
[Post-Chorus]
E
I sang to the heavens
D F#m
I sang to those below
E
I asked the big man to save me
D F#m
He already knows
E
The unanswered question
D F#m
If how I spent my time was right
C#m
And as the people change
Bm
The memories fade
F#m
They all become a haze—
E F#m A
Of the Vicar Street days
[Outro]
E F#m A
The Vicar Street days
E F#m A
The Vicar Street days
