Ralph McTell, Clare To Here (1976)
^{Key: :[F] (w: Ralph McTell)}
INTRO: [F] [G] [Am] : [x2]

VERSE 1:
Well there's [F] four who share the room
and we [G] work hard for the brass
And [F] sleeping late on Sunday's
I [G] never get to mass

CHORUS:
It's a [F] long, long [G] way
from Clare to [C] here [C/B] [Am]
It's a [F] long, long [G] way
from Clare to [Am] here
[F] It's a long, long way
it gets [G] further day by [Am] day [Am/G]
It's a [F] long, long [G] way
from Clare to [Am] here

VERSE 2:
When [F] Friday comes around
Terry's [G] only in the fighting
My [F] mom would like a letter home
And I'm [G] too tired for writing

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 3:
It [F] almost breaks my heart
When I [G] think of Josephine
I [F] told her I'd be coming back
With my [G] pockets full of green

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 4:
The [F] only time I feel alright
Is [G] when I'm into drinking
It [F] eases all the pain off it
And [G] levels out my thinking

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 5:
I [F] sometimes hear a piper play
Or [G] Maybe it's emotion
I [F] dream I see white horses dance
Up-[G]-on that other ocean

REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
