  Em        Gmaj7     Am        Cmaj7

[Chorus 1]
Em          Gmaj7                    Am
I love you, I love you, I told you I do

                    Cmaj7                    Em
It's all I've ever felt, I've never felt so well

                      Gmaj7                 Am
And if you don't know it, I wrote you this tune

            Cmaj7                      Em
To be here loving you when I'm in the tomb

                      Gmaj7                Am
I've eddied the heart now, from Dublin to Paris

                  Cmaj7                    Em
And if there was sunshine, it was never on me

                    Gmaj7                 Am
So close, the rain, so pronounced is the pain

Cmaj7
Yeah

[Chorus 2]
Em                 Gmaj7                   Am
Well, I love you, imagine a world without you

               Cmaj7                 Em
It's only ever you, I only think of you

                     Gmaj7               Am
And if it's a bless..ing, I want it for you

                  Cmaj7                  Em
If I must have a future, I want to with you

               Gmaj7                     Am
Systеm in our hearts, you only had it before

                  Cmaj7                      Em
You only opеn the window, never open up the door

                       Gmaj7           Am   Cmaj7
And I love you, I love you, told you I do

[Verse 1]
Em                            G
Selling genocide and half-cut pride, I understand

             Am                               C
I had to be there from the start, I had to be the f*cking man

          Em                               G
It was a clamber of the life, I sucked the ring off every hand

         Am                   C
Had 'em plying me with drink, even met with their demands

Em                          G
When the cherries lined up, I kept the spoilings for myself

Am                               C
'Til I had thirty ways of dying looking at me from the shelf

Em                         G
Cloud-parting smile I had, a real good child I was

Am                                  C                                                                           
But this island's run by sharks with children's bones stuck in their jaws

Em                                   G
Now the morning's filled with cokeys tryna talk you through it all

Am                                     C
Is their mammy Fine Gael and is their daddy Fianna Fáil?

Em                                         G                                                                    
And they say they love the land, but they don't feel it go to waste

         Am                     C
Hold a mirror to the youth and they will only see their face

Em                                          G
Makes flowers read like broadsheets, every young man wants to die

Am                             C
Say it to the man who profits, and the bastard walks by

Em                                 G
And the bastard walks by, and the bastard walks by

           Am              C
Say it to him fifty times and still the bastard won't cry

         Em
Would I lie?
[Instrumental]
  Em        G        Am         C

[Chorus 3]
Em                  G                Am
I love you, I love you, I told you I do

                    C                       Em
It's all I've ever felt, I've never felt so well

                  G                         Am
And if you don't know it, I wrote you this tune

             C                         Em
To be here loving you when I'm in the tomb

                G
System in our hearts, you only had it before

Am                C
Echo, echo, echo, the lights, they go

Em                    G
The lights, they go, the lights, they go

       Am  C
Echo, echo
[Verse 2]
Em                             G
Selling genocide and half-cut pride, I understand

              Am                               C
I had to be there from the start, I had to be the f*cking man

          Em                                G
It was a clamber of the life, I sucked the ring off every hand

         Am                        C
Had 'em plying me with drink, even met with their demands

            Em                          G
And I loved you like a penny loves the pocket of a priest

          Am                                 C
And I'll love you 'til the grass around my gravestone is deceased

          Em                                      G
And I'm heading for the cokeys, I will tell them 'bout it all

           Am                        C
About the gall of Fine Gael and the fail of Fianna Fáil

              Em                                  G
And now the flowers read like broadsheets, every young man wants to die

       Am                               C
Say it to the man who profits, and the bastard walks by

          Em                        G
And the bastard walks by, and the bastard walks by

           Am                             C
Say it to him fifty times and still the bastard won't cry

         Em  G Am C
Would I lie?
