SHAMROCK DIARIES by Chris Rea
Albums: “Shamrock Diaries” and “New Light Through Old Windows”
Intro: G G/C G G/C
In waves of people you can lose your feet
You’ve got to stay hard to the ground
It gets so easy now to lose your way
When you’re ever outward bound
A church bell ringing in the fading light
Stops you dead like a cold steel wall
The ghost of yester-years is touching you
And as sure as god you’ll fall
And I see you  
And I see me  
I see it all  
Like it used to be   
C/F C/D C/F C/D
And all the reasons why you started out
They hit you hard with every bell
The choir practice in the empty hall
Is a sound you know so well
Like something lost inside your overcoat
You find it later by mistake
You lost it all a thousand years ago
And you pray it’s not too late
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all like a diary
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all like it used to be
I’m gonna write it in a diary
Now I remember everything
Yeah I remember how it used to be
With every note that choir boy sings
And I see you
And I see me
I see it all like a diary

!!: Some chords may sound strange when played full with the melody. On the record most chords are mainly played broken (arpeggio)!
Example: On C/F, C/D the piano plays on the record (tones!! (eights); first is free (=x)): x c f e c f g e
Good luck!
