Kate & Anna McGarrigle - Baltimore Fire
 
 
 
[Intro]
G
 
[Verse 1]
 
Strong men in anguish prayed
C                  G
Calling out to the heavens for aid
C                 G
While the fire in ruins was laid
     D                       G
Fair Baltimore the beautiful city
 
 
[Verse 2]
                              C
It was on a silver falls by a narrow
       G                           D
That I heard the cry I ever will remember
    G                             C
The fire set and cast its burning ember
    G            D           G
On another fated city of our land
 
 
[Chorus]
 
"Fire! Fire!", I heard the cry
     C                 G
From every breeze that passes by
C                 G              D
All the world was one sad cry of pity
G
Strong men in anguish prayed
C                  G
Calling out to the heavens for aid
C                 G
While the fire in ruins was laid
     D                       G     C  G  D  G
Fair Baltimore the beautiful city
 
 
[Verse 3]
                              C
Amid an awful struggle and commotion
    G                         D
The wind blew a gale from the ocean
      G                        C
Brave firemen struggled with devotion
    G             D             G
But their efforts all proved in vain
 
 
[Chorus]
 
"Fire! Fire!", I heard the cry
     C                 G
From every breeze that passes by
C                 G              D
All the world was one sad cry of pity
G
Strong men in anguish prayed
C                  G
Calling out to the heavens for aid
C                 G
While the fire in ruins was laid
     D                       G
Fair Baltimore the beautiful city
