[Verse 1]
Am Em Once I saw the river clean Am Distant future, wait for me Em I grow pleasing to the eye Dsus4 Am And the queue will queue for me Em Once I saw the river clean Am Soon the clock will strike for me Em Childish mind anticipates Dsus4 Grown-up mind consummates
[Instrumental]
| Am | Am | F | F |
[Verse 2]
A Em G I walked with my grandmother D A Down a windblown Chester Road Em G With her fifty-two new pence D A For her twenty number-tens Em G And my forty-five pence too D A Demand "Metal Guru" Em G Once with hearts securely stacked D Then we walked all the way back
[Instrumental]
| Am | Am | F | F |
[Verse 3]
Am Em I walked with my grandmother Am Along the groan of Talbot Road Em In the gardens by the graves Dsus4 Am I can just about behave Em Arrogant and paranoid Am All around, see fathead youth Em Look into their brutal eyes Dsus4 But only if you want the truth

[Verse 4]
A Em G Once I saw the river clean D A Scratching up the latest scheme Em G Time will come but it hasn't yet D Someone's out to get me A Em G I walked with my grandmother D A Cornbrook Street, where incomplete Em G She would never be again D A Dublin dancer, free and young
