NEVERMIND THE STRANGERS
:SAW DOCTORS, 1992, ALL THE WAY FROM TUAM.
DON'T KNOW IF THE CHORD PROGRESSIONS ARE RIGHT BUT IT SORT OF
SOUNDS ALRIGHT, AND IF YOU TRANSPOSE THE CHORDS INTO F, THEN IT
SOUNDS JUST AS GOOD.
INTRO: G  Em  C  D
       G  Em  C  DG

VERSE:

G                      Em
IT TAKES TWO TO GET TOGETHER,
C                      D
IT TAKES TIME TO MAKE IT LAST,
G                      Em
WE'LL ALL END UP IN SOME WAYS,
C                      D
LIKE A DRINK IN LAST NIGHTS GLASS,
G                      Em
BUT WE TAKE THIS CHANCE TOGETHER,
C                      D
LET'S NOT THINK ABOUT THE END,
C                 G
NEVERMIND THE STRANGERS,
C                        D
COS I'LL ALWAYS.....BE YOUR FRIEND,
(D)       G
UNTIL THE END.       (STRAIGHT INTO FILL)

FILL:G  Em  C  D    (PLAY LIKE AN IRISH REEL)
     G  Em  C  DG

SAME CORD PROGREESIONS.

WE'VE CROSSED THE SEAS TOGETHER,
WE'VE HAD OUR UPS AND DOWNS,
WE'VE GONE FURTHER THAN WE EVER DREAMED,
FROM OUR COUNTY GALWAY TOWN,
IF WE'RE UP ON TOP TOMORROW,
OR IF IT ALL JUSTS ENDS,
NEVERMIND THE STRANGERS,
COS I'LL ALWAYS BE YOUR FRIEND
UNTIL THE END.

IT HASN'T ALL BEEN EASY,
BUT SURE THATS THE WAY IT GOES,
WE'VE BEEN SHAKEN, ROCKED AND RATTLED,
TAKEN JABS AND BODY BLOWS,
THERE'S A STRENGTH IN BEING TOGETHER,
LIKE A STEEL BAR THAT WON'T BEND,
NEVERMIND THE STRANGERS,
COS I'LL ALWAYS BE YOUR FRIEND
UNTIL THE END.

EVEN NOW IT'S HARD TO THINK BACK
WHEN DID IT ALL BEGIN,
WAS IT SOME NIGHT DRINKING IN GAY BROWNE'S PUB,
EVERY SOUL IS WELCOMED IN,
ON THIS FINE SUMMERS EVENING,
AS THE BLUE OF NIGHT DESCENDS,
NEVERMIND THE STRANGERS
COS I'LL ALWAYS BE YOUR FRIEND,
UNTIL THE END.

WE'VE SEEN THE OTHER SIDE OF LIFE,
AND NOT BEEN TO IMPRESSED,
IT DOESN'T BEAT A DAY AT HOME,
IF YOU PUT IT TO THE TEST,
BUT AT LEAST WE TOOK THE CHALLENGE,
WE DIDN'T JUST PRETEND,
NEVERMIND THE STRANGERS,
COS I'LL ALWAYS BE YOUR FRIEND,
UNTIL THE END.

(AFTER LOADS OF CONTINUOUS FILL IN'S, AND SOMEBODY GOING MAD ON
A VIOLIN, DURING THE MIDDLE OF A FILL, GET A DRUNK PERSON TO
SHOUT: "LETS HAVE A PARTYYYYYYYY!!!!!", AND THEN FILL AGAIN AND
SORT OF FADE INTO NOTHING, THEN DRINK SOME GUINNESS AND GO
HOME!!)
P.S: ANYONE GOT ANYMORE SAW DOCTORS......PLEASE!
HAPPY TINKLING OF THOSE STRINGS...SIMON.
