Вступление
B
Verse1: Mary's eyes are startling blue
Abm
And her hair's Newcastle gold
E F#
And she walks the thin white line between the body and the soul
B
She's as faithful to her history
Abm
As a novice to his fast
E F#
For she's standing on the bones of Ireland's past
Chorus:
E
She's singing of the troubles
B E
And the fire in the land
B F#
'Til I can almost feel the famine slipping through my trembling hand
E
And i wonder as I hear her,
B E
That the spirit still shines through
B E F# B
And she can reach across the ocean deep and break my heart in two...
B
Verse 2: Mary's wise and she is foolish
Abm
She's as constant as the tide
E F#
For it's a woman's heart that beats beneath that stubborn Irish pride
B
We are saints and we are sinners
Abm F# E
We are heros we are theives. We are all of us beginners on the road to Galilee
Chorus
Instrumental:
Verse 3
B
So let us hiost a pint of silence
Abm
To the east where ireland lies
E
And we will stare across the waters
F#
For a glimpse of Mary's eyes
B
We are ships without a harbor
Abm
We are sailors are on dry land
E
And the song goes on forever
F#
Even though the record can't
Chorus
