Dancing At The Crossroads
| A | D |
Well I | remember as a | young boy |
| G |
The beginning of sep | tember |
| Em |
We were standing at the | station |
| A | D |
There was | priests and christian | brothers |
| G |
There was nuns and reverend | mothers |
| Em |
There was guards and drunks and | others |
| G | A |
But every | one was just the | same |
| A | D |
Well they | came from Ennis | corthy |
| G |
From New Ross and Ferns and | Gorey |
| Em |
There was busses from Bun | clody |
| G | A |
There was | horses, carts and | all |
| A | D |
And when they | steped out on the | platform |
| G |
They were shouting and | screaming |
| Em |
And as they carried Larry | Murphy |
| G | A |
He looked | twenty-five feet | tall |
| A | D |
So whats the | story Martin | Storey |
| G |
Now Wexford's really bound for | glory |
| Em |
And when at last the cup was | lifted |
| G | A |
They said we | brought it home for | you |
Chorus
| D |
We were | dancing at the crossroads, |
| G |
In the shadow of a | bomfire |
| Em |
Underneath the silver | moon light |
| A | D |
We were | singing until | dawn, |
| A | D |
We were | dancing at the | crossroads, |
| G |
With the poteen and the | porter, |
| Em |
Dancing jigs and reels and | polkas |
| A | D |
In every | bar down on the | main street |
| G |
They were hanging from the | rafters |
| Em |
And they sang the boys of | Wexford |
| G | A |
Like it was | going out of | style |
| A | D |
All the | bingo halls were | empty |
| G |
And all the Masses finished | early |
| Em |
Sure no one ever saw the | likes of |
| A | D |
And when we | look at young O | gorman |
| G |
And through the mid field he was | stormin |
| Em |
And then the Cusack Stand e | rupted |
| G | A |
When he | scored from 60 | yards |
Chorus
| A | D |
And I | think of George O' | Connor |
| G |
So many said he was a | goner |
| Em |
But when he stood up in the | Hogan |
| G | A |
I even | saw an old man | cry |
