Now the [G] autumn [D] leaves are [G] falling
and [C] tourists [D] have all [G] gone
And the children they have
[C] all gone back to [D] school
And my [G] life is [D] as it [G] was before
I [C] work [D] eight hours a [G] day
But
the company's still [C] making all the [D] rules
There's a [C] girl in [D] Massa- [G] -chusetts
south of [C] Boston [D] town she [G] said
And her lovely face
is [C] with me all the [D] day
But I [G] met her [D] down in old [G]Tralee
golden [C] hair up-[D]-on her [G] head
Well I took her heart, and [D] she stole mine a- [G] way [C] [G]
Chorus:
[G] Goodbye my [D] Boston [G] beauty
Fare- [C] -well my [D] Boston [G] Rose
I'll wait for you, I'll think of you
No [C] threat to you I'll [D] pose
Good- [G] bye my [D] Boston [G] beauty
Fare- [C] -well my [D] Boston [G] Rose
I [C] wish that you were [G] here
But I know [D] that's the way life [G] goes [C] [G]
There's a [G] song we [D] sang all [G] summer
In the [C] bars of [D] Dublin [G] Town
I can here it on the [C]
factory radi- [D] -o
And the [G] feelings [D] I re-[G]-member
when [C] hear [D] that simple [G] tune
Make me wonder
if it [C] really happened [D] so
For we [C] laughed and [D] loved to- [G] -gether
'Til the [C] summer [D] days were
[G] done
And she had to fly a- [D] -cross the ocean [G] wide [C] [G]
Well, goodbye my [D] Boston [G] beauty
Un- [C] -til we [D] meet a- [G] -gain
And I'll keep the fire [D] burning
deep in- [G] -side [C] [G]
[G] Goodbye my [D] Boston [G] beauty
Fare- [C] -well my [D] Boston [G] Rose
I'll wait for you, I'll think of
you
No [C] threat to you I'll [D] pose
Good- [G] bye my [D] Boston [G] beauty
Fare- [C] -well my [D] Boston [G]
Rose
I [C] wish that you were [G] here
But I know [D] that's the way life [G] goes [C] [G]
Well some [G] nights when [D] I'm [G] drinking
and my [C] friends have [D] gathered [G] round
Well just for
fun [C] some one brings up your [D] name
Well I [G] smile there [D] with the [G] rest of them
but [C] I can't [D]
hear a [G] sound
I love you but to [C] them its all the [D] same
At [C] nights when I'm a- [G] -lone my love
you [C] come [D] into my [G] mind
And visions flash u- [C] -pon
that inward [D] eye
Well I [C] watch that [D] moon there [G] up above
then I [C] leave this [D] earth be- [G] -hind
And I call to you as [D] you go sailing [G] by [C] [G]
[G] Goodbye my [D] Boston [G] beauty
Fare- [C] -well my [D] Boston [G] Rose
I'll wait for you, I'll think of
you
No [C] threat to you I'll [D] pose
Good- [G] bye my [D] Boston [G] beauty
Fare- [C] -well my [D] Boston [G]
Rose
I [C] wish that you were [G] here
But I know [D] that's the way life [G] goes [C] [G]
I [C] wish that you were [G] here
So fare- [D] -well my [C] Boston [G] Rose [C] [G]
