Brier, Galway Shawl (2009)
^{Key: :[C] (w: Traditional)}

VERSE 1:
At Oran-[C]-more, in the County Galway
One pleasant [Am] evening, in the month of [F] May [G]
I spied a [C] damsel, she was fair and handsome
And her beauty [Am] nearly took, [G] my breath a-[C]-way

CHORUS:
She wore no [C] jewels, nor costly diamonds
No paint nor [Am] powder, no none at [F] all [G]
But she wore a [C] bonnet, with ribbons on it
And around her [Am] shoulders, [G] was the Galway [C] shawl

VERSE 2:
She kept on [C] walking, she kept on talking
'Till her fathers [Am] cottage, came in to [F] view [G]
Said she: "Come [C] in sir, and meet my father
And play to [Am] please him, [G] The Foggy [C] Dew"

VERSE 3:
I played "The [C] Black Bird", "The Stack of Barley"
"Old Rodney's [Am] Glory", and "The Foggy [F] Dew" [G]
She sang each [C] note, like an Irish linnet
Till tears came [Am] in-to, [G] her eyes of [C] blue

REPEAT CHORUS:

VERSE 4:
'Twas early [C] early, all in the morning
I took the [Am] road for, old Done-[F]-gal [G]
She sighed and [C] kissed me, and she said "Goodbye Sir"
But my heart re-[Am]-mains with, [G] the Galway [C] shawl

REPEAT CHORUS:
