The Mad Lady And Me lyrics

e C
Among the walls and ruins of the horrid civic stone
D e
I walked without a lover for my older bones
e D
The sun was strong in going down it was a dreamlike day
D e
its there we met the trinity its there I heard them say

Chorus:
G D a e
And she said bye bye mama goodbye brother John
G D a e
farethee well ye shandon bells ring on ring on

She leaned and leaned much closer and she kissed them all goodbye
her mother said dont go my love we all must bye and bye
a drunken tongue said leave her off shell drive us all crazy
she turned around and saw my face and both of us was she

Chorus
Up and to the limestone wall and down the level steps
she threw herself into the stream with a splash and no regrets
side stroke swimming midstream throwing kisses to the crowd
and everything was silent and the sky knew not one cloud

we were swimming out in the sunset we were swimming out to sea
swimming down by the Opera House the mad lady and me
