Hi there me again - I've put this songe back in the key of G, and
thanks to some people, a couple of word corrections:

So:  Bang on the Ear   The Waterboys

Lindsay was my first love  she was in my class
G D             G           C              D

I would have loved to take her out but I was too shy to ask
G             D                G         C               D

The fullness of my feeling   was never made clear
      C              G             C    G    D

But I send her my love with a bang on the ear
G     D            C           D          G


Nora was my girl when I first was in a group
I can still see her to this day, stirring chicken soup
Now she's living in Australia working for an auctioneer
But I send her my love with a bang on the ear

Deborah broke my heart and I the willing fool
I fell for her one summer on the road to Liverpool
I thought it was forever but it was over in a year (oh dear)
But I give her my love with a bang on the ear

Instrumental with violin

The home I made with Bela became a house of pain
We weathered it together bound by a ball and chain
Is started up in Fife, and ended up in tears (oh dear)
But I send her my love with a bang on the ear

Chrystal was a rover from CANADA she hailed
We crossed swords in San Francisco we both lived to tell the tale
I dont know now where she is but oh if she was here
I'd give her my love with a bang on the ear

Instrumental

So my woman of the hearthfire, harbour of my soul
I watch you lightly sleeping and I sense a dream that doesnt fold (like gold)
You to me are treasure, you to me are dear
So I'll give you my love with a bang on the ear
