Dublin Chords

(ver. 1)
Thin Lizzy
Thin Lizzy - Dublin
Written by Phil Lynott

Tuning: Standard E
The whole song is just these chords fingerpicked on an acoustic. 
Simple and very beautiful...

Intro: Am Bm G Am x3

E
After our affair
F#m       
I swore 
A
That I'd leave Dublin
Cmaj7/G
And in that line I'd left behind
The years, the tears, the memories 
    A
And you, in Dublin

E
At the quays 
F#m
Friends come 
   A
To say farewell
   Cmaj7/G
We'd laugh and joke and smoke
And later on the boat
    A
I'd cry over you

Dsus2 - A
How can I 
Bm
Leave the town that brings me down
That has no jobs
   Bm/A
Is blessed by God
And makes me cry
A
Dublin...

Am Bm G Am x3

E
And at sea 
 F#m
With flowing hair
  A
I'd think of Dublin
   Cmaj7/G
Of Grafton Street and Derby Square
And those of whom I care
    A
And you, in Dublin
   Cmaj7/G
And you, in Dublin

[Ends with a gently finger-picked E major]

Cmaj7/G: 
3-3-2-0-0-x
