Fairmount Hill

Dropkick Murphys
 AmGAm
Last night as I lay dreaming, of pleasant days gone by                       
 AmCG
My mind was bent on rambling, and to Boston I did fly                           
 AmCG
I stepped on board a vision, and I followed with the will                      
 AmGAm
Till at last, I came to anchor at the rocks on Fairmount Hill                      

 AmGAm
It was on the 23rd of June, one day before the fair                  
 AmCG
When Boston's sons and daughters and friends assembled there                             
 AmCG
The young, the old, the brave and the bold, came their duty to fulfill                          
 AmGAm
At the parish church on Thatcher, a mile from Fairmount Hill                           

 AmGAm
I went to see old friends there, to see what they might say                       
 AmCG
The old ones were all dead and gone, the young ones turning gray                              
 AmCG
I met the broker Hughes, he's as odd as ever still                 
 AmGAm
See I used to crash at his mother's house, when I hung on Fairmount Hill                        

 AmGAm
I paid a flying visit to my first and only love          
 AmCG
She's as white as any lily, and as gentle as a dove               
 AmCG
She threw her arm around me saying, "Andy I love you still"                           
 AmGAm
Oh, she's one miss Fayes O'Bailey, the pride of Fairmount Hill                         

 AmGAm
I dreamt I'd fought a violent war for the hand of this darling gal                       
 AmCG
A-gainst an angry jealous foe by the name of Danny Gill                        

 AmGAm
The clock it rang in the morning, it rang both loud and shrill                     
 AmGAm
When I awoke in Cali-fornia, many miles from Fairmount Hill
