[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
I was Ddown the bottom half of some old Gbar in ChinaDtown
Me Dshoes had brought the rain and soaked the Gspace for lookin' Adown
As Bmdrunk as love is lethal, I Gspun a lady 'Dround
And I Dkissed her 'neath the Gwaking of a ADublin City Dsky
[Verse 2]
She Dthrew her shoes into her bag and Gdanced just like a Ddream
Her Dface was rubied up just like no Gsun I'd ever Aseen
She Bmsaid I was a phony, I said GI could be Dmean
And I Dtreated her so Gbadly I Amade my baby Dcry
[Verse 3]
The DJanuary markets filled the Gcold air with the Dsound
The Dboys all full of laughter and their Gpocket with the Apound
And Bmin the foggy dew, I saw you Gthrowing shapes aDround
It was Dunderneath the Gwaking of a ADublin City Dsky
[Chorus]
        Em9And it Em7all makes sour
To Awatch my lover wrap her arms around the flag of power
        Em9  Em7Hurry now you will
To Aknow you is to love you and I love you even still
        Em9But we'll Em7never truly be
We Atrip along disaster in the whirlwind of the free
        Em9  Em7Altogether nowA  
[Verse 4]
I was Ddown the bottom half of some old Gbar in ChinaDtown
Me Dshoes had brought the rain and soaked the Gspace for lookin' Adown
And Bmin the foggy dew, I saw you Gthrowing shapes aDround
It was Dunderneath the Gwaking of a ADublin City Dsky
[Chorus]
        Em9And it Em7all makes sour
To Awatch my lover wrap her arms around the flag of power
        Em9  Em7Hurry now you will
To Aknow you is to love you and I love you even still
