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

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

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

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

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

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

REPEAT CHORUS:
