      G   
She shuffles her feet
           C9      G
In that kitchen retreat
G
Victorian respite
        D
Irish streets of gold
         G
Far removed from her sod
                  C9                  G
Where they ran from an angry god
G
Then settled into
D                      Caad9 D   G
Triple Stacked apartment row

          Em
Yes the husband came next
      C
Then young children test
     G                         D
No doubt she cared so well
         Em
Fed an army of six
          C
With Ol Harr in the mix

      D
The patience of a saint

   G
A virtuous woman
           C9          G
Bearer of the family flame

G
Told it was to that Harry
           C9  G
She had up and wed
G                    
But we never got to know him
G              D
'Cause the bottle struck him dead
G
Informed he carried that curse
       C9     G
So of us would know
G                                D
So she waved goodbye to Hartland
            C9   D      G
Off to Romsey she'd go

            Em
Then the kids they have kids
       C
Once again testing wits
       G               D
She took it in her stride
     Em       
Up until her last days
        C
Steadfast in her ways
     D
Inspiring to me
