wolfe tones – quare things in dublin lyrics

[g]there’s quare things in dublin between howth and
crumlin.
[c]down in rings[g]end there’s a[am] five-legged[d] cat,
a three-[g]legged donkey, two-headed monkey.
there’s[c] nothing so[g] quare as this[d] four-faced
old[g] clock.

[g]there’s a clock in old dublin that stands on a
steeple,
[c]proud and er[g]ect with four[am] faces so[d] tall.
while[g] one of them says you are late, it’s deceiving.
the[c] other one[g] says it’s a[d] quarter be[g]fore.
you run down the[c] road and he[g] grins as you[d] hurry,
then[g] just round the[c] corner you[g] look up in
sur[d]prise.
it’s[g] not quite the same as it was on the last street.
[c]this bl–dy[g] blackguard is[d7] telling me[g] lies.

there’s a half-hour to spare. now how will i kill it
i’ll nip up the road and nip in for a jar.
with the chimes of four bells, i look back in amazement.
his other side has gone past the hour.
there’s a lesson in life to adopt and interpret.
it applies to all people regardless of race.
don’t put your trust or your faith in a person
if sometimes they seem to have more than one face
