[A] [E]
Well I wish I was [A] in Austin, [E] in [B] a chili parlor bar drinking [E] mad dog margaritas and [A] not caring
[E] where you are.
Here I sit in Dublin, just rolling [B] cigarettes, [E] holding back and choking back [A] shakes with every [E] breath.
[B] So forgive me all my anger, [E] forgive me all my faults, [B] there's no need to forgive me
[E] for thinking what I thought.
[B] I loved you from the get go and [E] I'll love you till I die.
[B] I loved you on the Spanish steps [A] the day you said [E] goodbye.
I am [A] just a poor [E] boy, mm, works my [B] middle name.
[E] If money was a reason, well [A] I would [E] not be the same.
I'll stand up and [A] be [E] counted, mm, I'll face up to [B] the truth.
[E] I'll walk away from trouble, but I [A] can't walk away [E] from you.
[B] So forgive me all my anger, [E] forgive me all my faults, [B] there's no need to forgive me [E] for
thinking what I thought.
[B] I loved you from the get go and [E] I'll love you till I die.
[B] I loved you on the Spanish [C#m] steps the day you [E] said goodbye.

I have been to [A] Fort Worth, [E] mm, and I have [B] been to Spain, [E] and I have been too proud of
[A] you coming out [E] of the rain.
I have [A] seen David, [E] mm, I've seen a Mona Lisa [B] too, [E] and I have heard Doc Watson play [A] Columbus [E] Stockade Blues.

Forgive me all my anger, [E] forgive me all my faults, [B] there's no need to forgive me [E] for
