Days Gone By Chords

Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

The snow is gently A falling now,

And Bm I am sadly F♯m dreaming

Of G times of old and D happy days gone A by,

Of D Christmas cheers, songs A of the past,

When Bm Irish reels were F♯m ringin'

a- G round the kitchen D table all the A night.

May those G days never A trickle from your D mind.

Love it fills the A air so full, as Bm children's faces F♯m glisten,

While G old friends sing us D tales about the A sea

Of D wives at home with A hands embraced,

Bm waiting for men's re- F♯m turning,

With G eyes arced from the D wild and stormy A seas.

May those G days never A trickle from your D mind.

Interlude

Flute, Mandolin Guitar and Base.

(Normal Chord Progression)

Everyone is A happy now

With Bm drinkin' songs and F♯m dancing,

While G Danny sings a D song of old and A new,

My D father tells a A tale of ships,

My Bm mother sings of F♯m Ireland,

And G I pipe up a D reel which stirs the A room.

My D sister plays a A merry tune,

And Bm Kevin beats the F♯m bodhran,

It G airs a Celtic D soul sound throughout the A room;

My D nanny sits and A listens while Bm drinkin hot- F♯m totties

And G thinking back on D days I never A knew.

May those G days never A trickle from your D mind.

Interlude

Flute, Mandolin Guitar and Base.

D G Bm G A D

The wind is blowing A harder now,

And Bm people must be F♯m leavin'

To G get back to their D homes around the A shore;

We D wish them all good A night,

God bless, a Bm quick and safe re- F♯m turning

To G nice warm beds and A children's waiting D arms.

May those G days never A trickle from your D mind.

May those G days never A trickle from your D mind.
