Intro:
C5 F5 (x 4)

C5               F5
Dirty boats and filthy ropes.
C5                F5
Sore backs from crooked jacks.
C5               F5
Straw boss and Irish moss.
A5             G5
Kerosene and coal.

C5                  F5
Slinging hash and counting cash.
C5                  F5
Coffee stains and neck strains.
C5                  F5
Manager smiles at broken tiles
A5                 G5
on the greasy old floors.

C5               F5
Slow pokes and tow ropes.
C5                  F5
Sailors knots and widows plots.
C5                            F5
We hear the yell of the the steeple bell,
A5                G5
Of St. Cun?gonde.

C5                F5
Cads? hands and frying pans.
C5         F5
Cash in, clear the bin.
C5                   F5
Mopping floors and closing doors.
A5                G5
I?m  on my way home to you.

Chorus:
A5        F5              C5       G5
But dreaming just comes easy
A5                    F5            G5
When the work is too hard to bear.
A5      F5            C5           G5
But staring in your eyes dear,
A5               F5            C5
believing our dreams can be here.

C5                      F5
We meet at night, ?neath the dirty light.
C5                  F5
Filthy jeans with worn out seams
C5             F5
Lunch box is out of hock.
A5                       G5
Will we drink the night away?


Extra verse...
C5                   F5
Change your shoes, this afternoon
C5                    F5
You fixed your hair because you care
C5         F5
Lipstick will do the trick
A5                        G5
Will we dance until the dawn?

Chorus:
A5       F5                C5       G5
But dreaming just comes easy
A5                     F5            G5
When the work is too hard to bear.
A5       F5            C5        G5
But staring in your eyes dear,
A5                    F5              C5
Means believing our dreams can be here.

C5                    F5
It?s near to four, they locked the door.
C5                     F5
Descend the stairs, the dreams we share.
C5                   F5
The neon lights are outta sight
A5                         G5
As we walk hand in hand home.
