[Verse 1]
C G
There’s an easy place down Gallowgate to the East End of Glasgow
C G
It’s a ballroom of remembrance and a disco
F C
Where the shooting stars light up the fresco
F C G
Where the last ones and the lovers go … to carry on
C G
We sang about the Nicky Tams in the back room of the Scotia
C G
We drank sweet wines and called for neon pints of Fidel Castro
F C
Till it was time to fly to dreamland
F C G
Out of Bairds, up the stairs to hell or to heaven we’d go
[Chorus]
C F
Come all you dreamers hear the sound of the Barrows humming
C G7
Come all you dreamers to Barrowland
C F
Hear Mags McIvor and the ghost of the GayBirds calling
C G7
Come all you dreamers to Barrowland
[Verse 2]
C G
The Lassies of the Broomielaw in their Cuban Heels are dancing
C G
Here comes Our Lady of the Clyde and there goes Jinky Johnston
F C G
They’ve come back to rock and roll in the church of ceilidh
F C G
To waltz beneath the carousel of healing
F C G
To jitterbug and boogie the night away
[Chorus]
C F
Come all you dreamers hear the sound of the Barrows humming
C G7
Come all you dreamers to Barrowland
C F
Hear Mags McIvor and the ghost of the GayBirds calling
C G7 C
Come all you dreamers to Barrowland
