[Verse 1]
        D               G           D
Well, I wished I was in Austin, mmm-mmm
       D             A             D
In the Chili Parlour Bar drinkin' Mad Dog Margaritas
        G                D
And not carin' where you are
    D             G           D
But here I sit in Dublin, mmm-mmm
     D           A
Just rollin' cigarettes
D
Holdin' back and chokin' back
    G                  D
The shakes with every breath

[Chorus]
       A
So, forgive me all my anger
   D
Forgive me all my faults
        A
There's no need to forgive me
    D
For thinkin' what I thought
  A
I loved you from the get go
         D
And I'll love you till I die
  A
I loved you on the Spanish steps
     G                D
The day you said goodbye

[Verse 2]
    D            G            D
Now I am just a poor boy, mmm-mmm
D                A        D
Work's my middle name, if money was a reason
        G                 D
Well, I would not be the same
     D               G            D
I'll stand up and be counted, mmm-mmm
     D              A
I'll face up to the truth
     D
I'll walk away from trouble
            G              D
But I can't walk away from you

[Chorus]
      A
So forgive me all my anger
   D
Forgive me all my faults
        A
There's no need to forgive me
    D
For thinkin' what I thought
  A
I loved you from the get go
         D
And I'll love you till I die
  A
I loved you on the Spanish steps
     G                D
The day you said goodbye

[Verse 3]
D              G               D
I have been to Fort Worth, mmm-mmm
    D                A        D
And I have been to Spain, and I have been too proud
        G               D
To come in out of the rain
    D               G          D
And I have seen the David, mmm-mmm
              D         A
I've seen the Mona Lisa too
    D                              G              D
And I have heard Doc Watson play Columbus Stockade Blues

[Chorus]
   A
Forgive me all my anger
   D
Forgive me all my faults
        A
There's no need to forgive me
    D
For thinkin' what I thought
  A
I loved you from the get go
         D
And I'll love you till I die
  A
I loved you on the Spanish steps
     G                D
The day you said goodbye

[Outro]
        D               G           D
Well, I wished I was in Austin, mmm-mmm
       D             A             D
In the Chili Parlour Bar drinkin' Mad Dog Margaritas
        G                 D
And not carin' where you are
