Boston Rose Chords & Lyrics by Wolfe Tones
Boston Rose
guitar chords lyrics
G D G C D G
Now the Autumn leaves are falling and the tourists have all gone
C D
And the children they have all gone back to school
G D G
And my life is as it was before
C D G C D
I work eight hours a day but the company's still making all the rules
C D G C D G
There's a girl in Massachusetts south of Boston town she said
C D
And her lovely face is with me all the day
G D G C D G
But I met her down in old Tralee , golden hair upon her head
D G
Well I took her heart and she stole mine away
(Chorus)
G D G C D G
Goodbye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C D
I'll wait for you I'll think of you no threat to you I'll pose
G D G C D G
Good bye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C G D G C G
I wish that you were here but I know thats the way life goes
G D G C D G
Theres a song we sang all summer in the bars of Dublin town
C D
I can here it on the factory radio
G D G C D G
And the feeling I remember when I here that simple tune
C D
Make me wonder if it really happened so
C D G C D G
For we laughed and loved together 'till the summer days were gone
D G C G
And she had to fly across the ocean wide
D G
Well, goodbye my Boston beauty
C D G
Until we meet again
D G C G
And I'll keep the fire burning deep inside
(Chorus)
G D G C D G
Goodbye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C D
I'll wait for you I'll think of you no threat to you I'll pose
G D G C D G
Good bye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C G D G C G
I wish that you were here but I know that's the way life goes
Sad Verse
G D G G D G
And some nights when im drinking and my friends have gathered 'round
C D
And just for fun someone calls out your name
G D G C D G
Well I smile there with the rest of them but I cant hear a sound
C D
I love you but to them it's all the same
C G C D G
At nights when im alone my love you come into my mind
G
And visions flash upon the Emerald Isle
C D G C D G
Well I watch the moon there up above I'll leave this earth behind
D G C G
And I'll call to you as I go sailing by
(Chorus)
G D G C D G
Goodbye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C D
I'll wait for you I'll think of you no threat to you I'll pose
G D G C D G
Good bye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose
C G D G C G
I wish that you were here but I know thats the way life goes
C G
I wish that you were here
D C G C G
So farewell my Boston Rose
