urban renewal and apartment blocks
C                 G                        C

G                                                 C           F
The walls in the city have a lot to say about the UVF and the IRA
C                             G              C
its cold by the river but the sky is full of stars
G
But these walls say nothing bout who i am
C                                     F
When I'm singin in the garden at the Rotterdam

There goes the ground beneath your feet

G
Elaine's mother thinks I'm some kinda crook
      C                             F
As she meets me at the door with a dirty look
   C                      G                C
My welcome round there is starting to wear thin
         G                 
Because i promised everybody i'd knuckle down 
       C                               F
But my grades weren't good enough this time round
C                 G             C
All my time runs out in the end

Em
And i know
                 F                    C
There tearing it down street by street
Em
Look out below
                F                      G
There goes the ground beneath your feet

By the time September comes she'll be gone
G
She says she'll text me everyday
           C                        F
But that's something she feel's she has to say
       C                G                    C   G
She'll call me once at Christmas then move on

In what was once Sailortown
