Вступление
[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
Am C F C
Come and listen close to a tale that's true
Dm Am E
A story passed on from me to you
F C
Long, long ago, now we must rewind
Dm Am E Am
My grandmother, Bridget, when she was a child
Dm Am
Poor, so poor, they shivered in the night
G C C#dim7
Times were hard with a war outside
Dm Am
Her daddy and his friends, they took on a fight
Dm E Am
That came to their front door
[Chorus]
F G7
Today's the day, so let us all pray
E7 Am
The Good Lord above keeps us safe
Dm C A#6 E
An eye for an eye for our freedom, we say...
[Verse 2]
Am
And the children, well they cried
C F C
They cried, couldn't understand why
Dm Am E
The streets where they played, dead horses lay
F C
Bridget and her friend out walking hand in hand
Dm Am E Am
When a bullet went bang, so they ran and they ran
Dm Am
Home at last to a mother in tears
G C C#dim7
Your young brother Sean's joined the Volunteers
Dm Am
A messenger boy of fifteen years
Dm E Am
Followed his heart out the door
[Chorus]
F G7
Tonight's the night by a candle light
E7 Am
The Sisters of Mercy couldn't save his life
Dm C A#6 E
An eye for an eye makes a mother cry...

[Verse 3]
Am C F C
We all have a story inside to share
Dm Am E
I listen to my granny in her rocking chair
F C
A million memories ago, she says
Dm Am E Am
I forgive, but I can't forget
Dm Am
Time, it's time now for me to go
G C C#dim7
With a kiss on the cheek I say, you know
Dm Am
You're one hell of a woman, and I love you so
Dm E Am
Walking out her front door
[Chorus]
F G7
Today is the day, my thoughts run away
E7 Am
On the balcony Bridget waves
Dm C A#6 E
Staring at the sun to myself I say...
[Outro]
Am
It's a beautiful day
E Am
It's a beautiful day
E Am6
What a beautiful day
