Love this song, but couldnt find the chords anywhere!!
Hope I did it justice, hope you all find it helpful.
Its pretty easy. This is my first tab so feel free to send me corrections and comments! XX
The strumming pattern I use is "Down,down,up,down,up,down,up"
No Capo and normal tuning.
Verse 1
AM
Throught the eyes of an innocent child
Fmaj7
Can't hide what is burning inside
AM
The shame and the guilt of disgrace
Fmaj7
They said she had fallen from grace
DM
To the arms of a train engineer
AM
Who escaped when the verdict was clear
EM
And saw she was quietly installed
AM
in the Magdalen Laundry
Chorus
Fmaj7 C
And oh you can find them there
DM G
Slaving each day in the heat and the steam
Fmaj7 C
And oh every bloody stain
DM
Will be carefully scrubbed
G
'Till it's white and it's clean

Verse 2
AM
The Sisters got angry today
Fmaj7
They took Bridie Power away
AM
They said she had broken the rules
Fmaj7
She swore that the priest
from the school...
DM
If only they'd asked why she cried
AM
They said they'd concluded she'd lied
EM
The priest had his own alibi
AM
In the Magdalen Laundry
Chorus
Bridge
Fmaj7 C G
A world set apart by magnolia walls
Fmaj7
And it's hard to believe
C G
That this happened at all
Fmaj7 C G
Pray the meek shall inhert this heart
Verse 3
AM
The Sisters of Mercy still live
Fmaj7
In the convent on top of the hill
AM
The walls of the laundries came down
Fmaj7
Exposing their sins to the town
DM
The ghosts of the girls who had died
AM
The souls of the ones who survived
EM
Echo their protest inside
AM
The Magdalen Laundry
Chorus x2
