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

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

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

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

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

REPEAT CHORUS:
