Phoenix Park Tab

by The Tossers


For the intro on guitar, pick out a “d” chord on a capo five, but if your like me and 
lost your capo or don’t own one pick out a G power chord.

Now there’s two ways you can do this you can play it on a capo five or play it open
I’m going to give you both ways. It’s going to look like this        D/G

The top note is what you will play on a capo 5 and the bottom is open so here you go

                                   
In the park I sat down with my love,
                          
And not a thing was wrong.
                                        
The sun shone down from up above,
                           
And not a thing was wrong.

Chorus
                                       
And I go to where our voices paired,
                                    
And leapt from off the stone.
                                                                /
And that's the voice that I still here whenever I sing alone, alone.
                         
Whenever I sing alone.

Not many a thought did I abide,
Nor was I help when things went wrong.
At the cemetery by your graveside,
Now everything is wrong.

Chorus

Musical break (play what you see above “Phoenix park in summertime”)

Well I know exactly where I'm going,
And God knows who I adore.
Tho' my prayers did ask to take my pain,
I wish I could've taken yours much more.


Phoenix Park in summertime,
             
Gathering by day and night.

By the hearth in wintertime,
                           
Gathering just to say goodbye
