From Clare To Here

F
There's four who share this room
C                       G
We were caught up in the craic
F
Sleeping late on Sundays
C                   G
And we never get to Mass

[Chorus]

F           G                 C
It's a long way from Clare to here
F           G                 Am    G
It's a long way from Clare to here
F            G                 Am      G      F
It's a long, long way, it gets further by the day
                  G                 Am
It's a long, long way from Clare to here

[Verse 2]

When Friday comes around
We're only into fighting
Ma would like a letter home
But I'm too tired for writing

[Chorus]

F           G                 C
It's a long way from Clare to here
F           G                 Am    G
It's a long way from Clare to here
F            G                 Am      G      F
It's a long, long way, it gets further by the day
                  G                 Am
It's a long, long way from Clare to here

[Verse 3]

It almost breaks my heart

When I think of Josephine
I told her I'd be coming home
With my pockets full of green

[Chorus]

F           G                 C
It's a long way from Clare to here
F           G                 Am    G
It's a long way from Clare to here
F            G                 Am      G      F
It's a long, long way, it gets further by the day
                  G                 Am
It's a long, long way from Clare to here

[Bridge]

F               G
The only time I feel alright
C           G    C
Is when I'm into drinking
F                       G
It can sort of ease the pain of it
C             G      Am
And it levels out my thinking

[Chorus]

F           G                 C
It's a long way from Clare to here
F           G                 Am    G
It's a long way from Clare to here
F            G                 Am      G      F
It's a long, long way, it gets further by the day
                  G                 Am
It's a long, long way from Clare to here

[Verse 4]

I sometimes hear a piper playing
Maybe it's a notion
I dream I see white horses dancing
Upon that other ocean

[Chorus]

F           G                 C
It's a long way from Clare to here
F           G                 Am    G
It's a long way from Clare to here
F            G                 Am      G      F
It's a long, long way, it gets further by the day
                  G                 Am
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
F                 G                 Am
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
