Oh, there's (G)four who share this room
as we (D)work hard for the (G)crack
And sleeping late on Sunday I (D)never
get to (G)Mass.
It's a (Emin)long,
wa(A7)y from Clare to (D)here
(Bmin)
It's a (Emin)long, wa(A7)y
from Clare to (Bmin)here
(G)It's a long, long (A7)way,
it grows (D)further by the (Bmin)day
It's a (Emin)long, wa(A7)y
from Clare to (D)here
When Friday comes
around Terry's only into fighting
My ma would like a letter home but I'm too tired for writing
It's a long, way
from Clare to here
It's a long, way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way, it grows further by the day
It's a long, way from Clare to here
Well it almost
breaks my heart when I think of Josephine
I told her I'd be coming home with my pockets full of green
It's a long, way
from Clare to here
It's a long, way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way, it grows further by the day
It's a long, way from Clare to here
And the only time
I feel alright is when I'm into drinking
It sort of eases the pain a bit and levels out my thinking
It's a long, long
way from Clare to here
It's a long, way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way, it grows further by the day
It's a long, way from Clare to here
I sometimes hear
a fiddle play or maybe it's a notion
I dream I see white horses dance upon that other ocean
It's a long, long
way from Clare to here
It's a long, way from Clare to here
It's a long, long way, it grows further by the day
It's a long, long way from Clare to here
It's a long, long
way from Clare to here.
