G
my song for you this evening
C D G
It's not to make you sad
G D
nor for adding to the sorrows
C D G
of this troubled northern land
G
but lately I been thinking
C D G
and it just won't leave my mind
G D
to tell you of two friends one time
C G
who were both good friends of mine
G
Isaac he was protestant
C D G
and Sean was catholic born
G D
it never made a difference
D G
for the friendship it was strong
G
and sometimes in the evening
C D G
when we heard the sound of the drums
D
we said it won't divide us
C D G
we will always be the ones
C G C G C G
there were roses, roses, there were roses
G D C G
and the tears of a people ran together
G C
G
it was on the Sunday morning
C D G
when the awful news came round
D
another killing has been done
C D G
just outside newry town
G
we knew that Isaac danced up there
C D G
we knew he liked the band
G D
when we heard that he was dead
C D G
we just could not understand
G
well fear it filled the countryside
C D G
there was fear in every home
