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

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

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

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

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

REPEAT CHORUS:
