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

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

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

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

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

REPEAT CHORUS:
