[Capo 2nd fret and you will be in key of D]
At[C] the east end of town,at the[Am] foot of the hill,
There's a[G] chimney so tall,it[F] says Belfast[C] mill,
But there's no smoke at all coming[Am] out of the stack,
For the[G] mill has shut down,and its[F] never coming[C] back.
[Chorus]
And the only tune I hear is the sound of the wind,
As she blows through the town weave and spin,weave and spin.
[2]
There's no children playing in the dark narrow streets,
For the mill has shut down it's so quiet,I cant sleep.
[3]
The mill has shut down,'twas the only life I know,
Tell me where will I go,tell me where will I go.
[4]
I'm too old to work and Im too young to die,
Tell me where will I go my family and I.
[repeat chorus after each verse]
