Missing You Christy Moore
[Dm7]in nineteen hundred and [G]eighty[Am] six
[Am]there's not much for a chippie or swing'in a [Dm7]pick
[Dm7]and you can't live on love and [G]on love [Am]alone
[Am]so you sail cross the ocean away cross the [Dm7]foam
[Dm7]to where your a paddy your a [G]biddy your a [Am]mick
[Am]good for nothin but stackin a br[Dm7]ick
[Dm7]your best mate's a spade and he [G]carries a [Am]hod
[Am]two work horses heavily [Dm7]shod
CHORUS
[F]oh [C--G]i'm missing [Dm7]you i'd give [F]all for the [C]price of a [Am]flight
[F]oh [C--G]i'm missing [Dm7]you [F]under [C]picadilly's[G] neon
then carry on as above
verse 2
who did you murder or are you a spy
i'm just fond of a drink help's me laugh help's me cry
now i just drink red biddy for a permanent high
i laugh a lot less and i'll cry till i die
CHORUS
verse 3
all ye young people now take my advice
before crossing the ocean you'd better think twice
cause you can't live without love , without love alone
the proof is around london in the nobody zone
where the summer is fine but the winter's a fridge
wrapped up in old cardboard under charing cross bridge
and i'll never go home now because of the shame
of a misfits reflection in a shop window pane
CHORUS TWICE
Well that's it folks enjoy
cheers Pat.
