2)Carrickfergus

I[C] wish I wa[G]s in Carrickfer[C]gus. Where she is wait[F]ing, my rainbows end. [C]

I[G] would swim over t[C]he deepest ocea[F]n just to see her swe[C]et smile again.

B[F]ut the sea is wide and [G]I cannot get ove[F]r. Nor have I th[G]e wings to fly.

 [F]                [C]                     [F]
I[C] wish[G] [F]I[C] knew a friendly boatsman to ferry me back to my sweethearts side.

I[G] close my eyes[C] and I remember the fi[F]elds of green and f[C]lowers gold.

W[G]here we would wa[C]lk in sunlit meadows. How[F] my hearts longing [C]to be back home.

B[F]ut the sea is wide and [G]I cannot get ove[F]r. Nor have I th[G]e wings to fly.

S[F]o I'll just dream[C] of Carrickfergu[F]s and the day I [C]said goodbye.

10)Amazing Grace

Am[E]azing grace, how swee[A]t the sound [E]that saved a boy like me      [B]

I [E]once was lost, but no[A]w am foun[E]d.  Was blind but now I [B]see.    [E]

T'[E]was grace that taught my hear[A]t to sing, [E]and grace my soul relieved.  [B]

Ho[E]w precious did that [A]grace appe[E]ar, the hour I firs[B]t believed.[E]

If[E] I should live ten thou[A]sand years,[E] bright shining as the sun     [B]

I [E]would need more days[A] to sing God[E]s praise, than when I [B]first begu[E]n

Am[E]azing grace, how swee[A]t the sound [E]that saved a boy like me      [B]

11)Circles In The Sand

I [C]know your back[F]s against the wall. N[C]othing i[F]s easy, the world is cl[G]osing in.

Bu[F]t you won't let me [C]fall, yo[F]u keep on fightin', you don'[C]t give in.

On[Bb]e day I'll give to you, all t[F]hat you deserve.

Yo[Bb]u are the sweetest thing livi[G]ng on this Earth.

If[F] I am lost upon the ocea[C]n, youll [F]be my guiding star to lead me t[C]o dry land.

An[F]d on the beach we'll walk togeth[C]er drawing circle[Bb]s in the sand.   [F]            [C]

In[F] the name of love[C], now an[F]d forever, always t[G]here for me.

Bu[F]t when the time is [C]right, yo[F]u'll be the first one to set [C]me free.

An[Bb]d when I spread my wings, you'll teac[F]h me how to fly.

Al[Bb]though your heart will break the day [G]we say goodbye.

Go[Bb]d only knows where I am goin[F]g. What k[Bb]ind of man I will become. [F]

12)Angels

   [C]

I s[C]it and wait. Does an angel co[F]ntemplate my fate[Am].     [G]

And[C] do they know the places were we go when we're gre[F]y and o[Am]ld.   [G]

Cuz[F] I have been told that salvation l[Am]ets their wings [F]unfold.

So [Bb]when I'm lying in my bed,

Tho[F]ughts running through my head,

And[C] I feel that love is dead.

I'm[Bb] loving angel[F]s instead.[C]

And[G] through it all she of[Am]fers me protection,

A l[F]ot love and affection, whether I[C]'m right or wrong.

And[G] down the waterfall whe[Am]rever it may take me,

I k[F]now that life won't break me.

Whe[Em]n I come to call, she [Dm]won't forsake me.

I'm[Bb] loving angels[F] instead. [C]

Whe[C]n I'm feeling weak and my pain walks down a one wa[F]y street.         [Am]               [G]

I l[C]ook above and I know I'll always [F]be blessed with love.[Am]      [G]

And[Bb] as the feeling grows

she[F] breathes flesh to my bones

And[C] when love is dead,

I'm[Bb] loving angels[F] instead. [C]

13)Tell Me Why

In [F#m]my dream, childr[Bm]en sing a song of l[D]ove for every boy and girl.       [F#m]

The[Bm] sky is blue and fields[D] are green and laughter is the language of the

wor[F#m]ld. Then I[A] wake and all I see is a [E]world full o[Bm]f people in need.          [F#m]

Tel[D]l me why (w[F#m]hy) does it have to b[Bm]e like this?

Tel[D]l me why (w[F#m]hy) is there something[Bm] I have missed?

Tel[D]l me why (w[F#m]hy) cos I don't u[Bm]nderstand. When so many need so[D]mebody.

We [Bm]don't give a helping hand. Tell [F#m]me why?

Eve[F#m]ry day I ask my[Bm]self what will I ha[D]ve to do to be a man?        [F#m]

Do [Bm]I have to stand and fi[D]ght to prove to everybody wh[F#m]o I am?

Is [A]that what my life is for to[E] waste in [Bm]a world full of war?        [F#m]

(Te[F#m]ll me why?) Tell me why? ([E]Tell me why?) Tell me why? (Tel[F#m]l me why?)

Tel[Abm]l me why (why, why, does the tiger run).

Tel[C#m]l me why (why, why, do we shoot the gun).

Tel[Abm]l me why (why, why, do we never learn).

Can[C#m] someone tell us why we let the forest burn?

(Wh[Abm]y, why, do we say we care)

Tel[C#m]l me why (why, why, do we stand and stare)

Tel[Abm]l me why (why, why, do the dolphins cry)

Can[C#m] someone tell us why we let the oceans die?

(Wh[Abm]y, why, if we're all the same)

Tel[C#m]l me why (why, why, do we pass the blame)

Tel[Abm]l me why (why, why, does it never end)

Can[C#m] someone tell us why we cannot just be friends?

Why[Abm], why (do we close our eyes). Why, w[C#m]hy (do the greedy lie).

Why[Abm], why (do we fight for land).

Can[C#m] someone tell us why cos we don't understand?  Why, w[Abm]hy??
