| SHAMROCK DIARIES by Chris Rea |
| Albums: Shamrock Diaries and New Light Through Old Windows |
| Intro: G G/C G G/C |
| G | G/C | |
| In waves of people you can | lose your feet |
| G | G/C | |
| You've got to stay hard to the | ground |
| G | G/C | |
| It gets so easy now to | lose your way |
| G | G/C | |
| When you're ever outward | bound |
| C/F | C/D | |
| A church bell ringing in the | fading light |
| C/F | C/D | |
| Stops you dead like a cold steel | wall |
| F/G | F/C | |
| The ghost of yester-years is | touching you |
| C/F | G/D | |
| And as sure as god you'll | fall |
| G | G/C | G/A | F/D | |
| And I see | you |
| G | G/C | G/A | F/D | |
| And I see | me |
| G | G/C | G/A | F/D | |
| I see it | all |
| G | G/C | G/A | F/D | |
| Like it | used to be |
| C/F | C/D | C/F | C/D |
| C/F | C/D | |
| And all the reasons why you | started out |
| C/F | C/D | |
| They hit you hard with every | bell |
| F/G | F/C | |
| The choir practice in the | empty hall |
| C/F | C/D | |
| Is a | sound you know so | well |
| C/F | C/D | |
| Like something lost inside your | overcoat |
| C/F | C/D | |
| You find it later by mis | take |
| F/G | F/C | |
| You lost it all a thousand | years ago |
| C/F | G/D | |
| 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 |
