      A
I was born up on the North side

          F#m
Where the Lagan River flows

       A
When I came across the border

      F#m          E
I was following my nose

       F#m    A
Dublin city '69

      Bm
There could have been no better place

          D         E
There was no better time

            F#m             A
Through the thunder and the rain

    Bm
The deepest blood of emeralds

    D       E          F#m
Was running through my veins

Blood of emeralds
[Verse 2]
      A
I was down and out on Skid Row

      F#m
But I held on to my pride

    A
The darkest son of Ireland

        F#m           E
He was standin' by my side

         F#m             A
We would sail the stormy seas

Bm
Never looking back

         D                  E
We were afraid of what we'd see

            F#m             A
Through the thunder and the rain

    Bm
The deepest blood of emeralds

    D       E           F#m
Was running through our veins
[Chorus]
C#m                E                       A
   Some of us will win and some of us will lose

                   F#m
The strong will survive

C#m                E
   Some of us will fall

           D             A        B
Some of us won't get out of here alive

A             E     F#m    E
 I was angry, I was sad

     D                  E
Just thinking about the times we had

A                   E      F#m   E
 I felt so lost and lonely too

     D            E                 D
What could I say, what could I do?

                   E         F#m   D
And after all, the time goes by

                 C#7     F#m    E
No one knows the reasons why

    D              E                   F#m       E
You lived each day like there was no tomorrow

    D                 E                  F#m        E
You spent those years living on time you borrowed

    D             C#m                 F#m
And in your eyes, all I could see was sorrow

    Some of us will fall

           D             A        Bm
Some of us won't get out of here alive
