from this (Bb)C D I bought for the store.

When I’m (D)lone ly or (A)feel ing de (Bm)ject ed,

I play (G)this and it nev er fails.

I pre (Bm)tend like (A)I’m in (D7sus)I re land

with (G6)En ya

When my (D)tel e phone (A)gets dis con (Bm)nect ed

and I (G)spend ev ’ry (G)night a lone,

I pre (Bm)tend like (A)I’m in (D7sus)I re land,

where the (G6)I rish (A7sus)bag pipes (D5)drone.

Smell the (F)grass as a rain storm is end in’.

Peo ple (F)smile while I (G)stroll past their rish (C)farms

with a (Cm)red head ed sail or named Bren dan!

And we (E7)dance with out (Bb)mov ing our (Asus)arms.

In a (D)bar once I (A)met this guy (Bm)De wey

And he (Bm)told me that (A)he was from (D7sus)I re land,

If I (D)squint ed, he (A)looked like my (Bm)sail or,

through my (G)booz y de (G)lu sion al (A7sus)fog.

But he (Bm)dumped me for (A)some slut named (D7sus)Kay re la,
