SHAMROCK DIARIES by Chris Rea Albums: “Shamrock Diaries” and “New Light Through Old Windows” Intro: / / In waves of people you can lose your feet You’ve got to stay hard to the ground It gets so easy now to lose your way When you’re ever outward bound A church bell ringing in the fading light Stops you dead like a cold steel wall The ghost of yester-years is touching you And as sure as god you’ll fall And I see you And I see me I see it all Like it used to be / / / / And all the reasons why you started out They hit you hard with every bell The choir practice in the empty hall Is a sound you know so well Like something lost inside your overcoat You find it later by mistake You lost it all a thousand years ago And you pray it’s not too late And I see you And I see me I see it all like a diary And I see you And I see me I see it all like it used to be I’m gonna write it in a diary Now I remember everything Yeah I remember how it used to be With every note that choir boy sings And I see you And I see me I see it all like a diary Chords: G: 320003 G/C: 035433 C/F: 032010 C/D: 000010 F/G: 3x3211 F/C: 033211 G/D: 000433 G/A: 00x003 F/D: 003211 !!: Some chords may sound strange when played full with the melody.

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque la nostalgie et le sentiment de perte qui accompagne le passage du temps. L'artiste décrit des moments marquants de sa vie, où les souvenirs affluent, comme un appel des années passées. On ressent une lutte entre la réalité actuelle et les souvenirs d'une époque révolue, avec une mention des cloches d'église qui rappellent des instants de réflexion et de prière. L’artiste se voit et se remémore son cheminement personnel, révélant une quête d'identité et une tentative de retrouver ce qui a été perdu. À travers cette introspection, il espère écrire de nouveau sa propre histoire, comme dans un journal intime où chaque note et chaque accord évoquent des souvenirs précieux.
