F#m
Take me away from the city
                 D          E       F#m
And lead me to where I can be on my own
I wanted to see it and now that I have
   D            E        F#m
I want to just be left alone
     D         E                A
I'll always remember your kind words
     Bm                       C#7
And I'll still remember your name
     F#m                        B7
But I've seen you changing and turning
                  D           E     F#m  E
And I know that things won't be the same

Chorus:
     A           E         F#m
I remember that summer in Dublin
         D                       A
And the Liffey as it stank like hell
         Bm                               F#m
And the young people walking on Grafton Street
        Bm               E
And everyone looking so well
I was singing a song I heard somewhere
Called "Rock 'n' Roll Never Forgets"
When my humming was smothered by a 46A
And the scream of a low-flying jet
So, I jumped on a bus to Dún Laoghaire
Stopping off to pick up my guitar
And a drunk on a bus told me how to get rich
I was glad we weren't going too far

So, I'm leaving on Wednesday morning
Trying to find a place where I can hear
The wind and the birds and the sea on the rocks
Where open roads always are near
And If sometimes if I tire of the quiet
And I wanna walk back up that hill
I’ll just get on the road and I stick out my thumb
And I know for sure that you'll be there still

Chorus:
I remember that summer in Dublin
And the Liffey as it stank like hell
And the young people walking on Grafton Street
Everyone looking so well
I was singing a song I heard somewhere
Called "Rock'n'Roll Never Forgets"
When my humming was smothered by a 32B
And the scream of a low-flying jet
So, I jumped on a bus to Dún Laoghaire
Stopping off to pick up my guitar
And a drunk on the bus told me how to get rich
I was glad we weren't going too far

And I remember that summer in Dublin
Oh, oh (Oh, oh)
I remember that summer in Dublin
Olay,olay
Olay, olay (olay)
