Written by Phil Lynott

The whole song is just these chords fingerpicked on an acoustic.
Simple and very beautiful...
Intro: Am Bm G Am x3
E
After our affair
F#m
I swore
A
That I'd leave Dublin
Cmaj7/G
And in that line I'd left behind
The years, the tears, the memories
A
And you, in Dublin
E
At the quays
F#m
Friends come
A
To say farewell
Cmaj7/G
We'd laugh and joke and smoke
And later on the boat
A
I'd cry over you
Dsus2 - A
How can I
Bm
Leave the town that brings me down
That has no jobs
Bm/A
Is blessed by God
And makes me cry
A
Dublin...
Am Bm G Am x3
E
And at sea
F#m
With flowing hair
A
I'd think of Dublin
Cmaj7/G
Of Grafton Street and Derby Square
And those of whom I care
A
And you, in Dublin
Cmaj7/G
And you, in Dublin
[Ends with a gently finger-picked E major]
Cmaj7/G:
3-3-2-0-0-x
