[Verse 1]
E B C#m A
As the old man sat there in his old rocking chair
E B
The children they gathered around
E B C#m A
Asking questions on life "Tell us, what was it like"
E B C#m A
When you met Grandma, how’d it go down?
E B E
And did you know it was love that you’d found?”
[Verse 2]
E B C#m A
T’was the Friday night ball at the local Town Hall
E B
And as usual the whole town was there
E B C#m A
There was so much to see but just one girl for me
E B C#m A
And how I’d look for her flowing black hair
E B E
And oh how I can still see her there
[Chorus]
B
And its step two three, back two three
A E
It’s all coming back to me
B A E
Her eyes how they’d shine and how she would look at me
B A E
Waltzing around with the Sun and the Moon
A E B
And we’d all spin around together
A E B
Dancing the Pride of Erin
[Verse 3]
E B C#m A
There was something that night that I knew was just right
E B
For somehow I faced all my fears
E B C#m A
So when I saw my chance well I asked her to dance
E B C#m A
And it lasted for near fifty years
E B E
Yes we danced for near fifty years
[Chorus]
B
And its step two three, back two three
A E
It’s all coming back to me
B A E
Her eyes how they’d shine and how she would look at me
B A E
Waltzing around with the Sun and the Moon
A E B
And we’d all spin around together
A E B
Dancing the Pride of Erin
[Verse 4]
E B C#m A
Well the children shot through with something better to do
E B
And the old man just sat still and stared
E B C#m A
Then he whispered softly “Are you waiting for me?
E B C#m A
Will you save me a dance up in Heaven?
E B E
Remember the Pride of Erin?”
[Chorus]
B
And its step two three, back two three
A E
It’s all coming back to me
B A E
Her eyes how they’d shine and how she would look at me
B A E
Waltzing around with the Sun and the Moon
A E B
And we’d all spin around together
A E B
Dancing the Pride of Erin
