  {c:Intro:}

            [C]   [F]  [G]   [C]    [F]  [G]   [C]   [F]  [G] 

  The [C]church bell rings

   

  An old drunk sings

  A young girl hocks her [F]wed[C]ding [G]ring

  Down on [C]Rain Street

   

  [F]  [G]   [C]   [F]  [G]  

  

  [C]Down the alley the icewagon flew

  Picked up a stiff that was [F]turn[C]ing [G]blue

  The [C]local kids were [F]sniffin'[C]   glue[G]

  There [C]aint much else for kids[F]  [C]to [G]do

  Down [C]Rain Street

   

  {c:Verse 3}

  Father McGreer buys an ice cold beer

  And a short for Father Loyola

  Father Joe's got the clap again

  He's drinking Coca-Cola

  Down on Rain Street

   

  Bless me Father I have sinned

  I got pissed and I got pinned

  And God can't help the shape I'm in

  Down on Rain Street

   

  {c:Verse 5}

  There's a Tesco on the sacred ground

  Where I pulled her knickers down

  While Judas took his measly price

  And St Anthony gazed in awe at Christ

  Down on Rain Street

   

  [Bb]   [F]  [C]  

  

  I [C]gave my love a goodnight kiss

  I tried to take a [F]late [C/E]night [G/D]piss

  But the [C]toilet moved so a[F]gain I [C/E]mis- [G/D]sed

  Down [C]Rain Street[F][G]

   

  {c:Verse 7}

  I sat on the floor and watched TV

  Thanking Christ for the BBC

  A stupid fucking place to be 

  Down Rain Street

   

  {c:Verse 8}

  I took my Eileen by the hand

  Walk with me was her command

  I dreamt we were walking on the strand

  Down Rain Street

   

  [C]   [F]That [G]night [C]Rain Street[F] went [G]on for [C]miles       / repeat & fade   

  [F]  That [G]night on [C]Rain Street[F] somebody [C]smiled [F]  [G]     [C](Rain Street) [F]  [G]
