The Girl I Used To Be

[Verse]
C     G     Em
Once upon a time
C     G     Em
A Dublin girl ran free
          C      G
Down the cobblestones
       D       Am
Round pubs and homes
    C       G        Em
As rich as she could be
         C      G        Em
Swimming in the Irish Sea
C        G         Em
Climbing up Bray Head
     C          G
Her lips were warmed
      D      Am
With pots of tea
C         G        Em
Chips and buttered bread
     C     (Fill 1)   G
Fed love from Mam and Da
[Fill 1]

[Chorus]
      D
They raised her up
      Em
They made her fly
      C                   D
They gave her roots and wings
      D
As time moves on
      Em
And years go by
      C                   D
She'll miss those simple things
           C (Fill 1) G
She's the girl I used to be

[Verse]
     C          G        Em
The playgrounds all came down
        C          G     Em
And we mourned our factories
C          G             D     Am
Times were tough, but I had enough
  C      G     Em
I had my family
            C        G      Em
Life kicked in with all its might
            C        G      Em
But my strong heart wouldn't break
         C      G       D      Am
I got kicked around and broken down
        C    (Fill 1)   G
I took all that I could take
[Fill 1]

        D
But you raise me up
     Em
You made me fly
     C                D
You gave me roots and wings
     D
As time moves on
     Em
And years go by

I miss those simple things

Now I'm grown with a child of my own
      C       G      Em
And I hope to God on high
      C            G          D     Am
That these are the days she thinks upon
