A        D       G               D   G
I can remember when you left Kilkenny
         D        A7                D
And you told me, "I'll return next year"
         D        G                 D    G
I never meant to hold you to your promise
         G         A7                D
And the years went by and I'm still here

Chorus:
        D            G       A7                D
So you left for the city, I hope you like it there
             Bm       G          D       A7
You're only here now to see the village fair
             D            G            A7                D
You're just here for the music, that's all, or could it be
              G        D              A7          D
You miss the good old times when you danced with me

So is the outside world as you imagined?
Was it worth it severing the ties?
Happy to see me or a bit embarrassed?
There's a darkness deep in your blue eyes

Chorus:
So you left for the city, I hope you like it there
You're only here now to see the village fair
You're just here for the music, that's all, or could it be
You miss the good old times when you danced with me?

When you danced with me
I miss the good old times when you danced with me
