D5                     G5      D5 
I wish I was in Austin 
                    A5 
In the Chili Parlour Bar 
         D5 
Drinkin' Mad Dog Margaritas 
         G5               D5 
And not carin' where you are 
 
 
D5                       G5      D5 
But here I sit in Dublin 
      A5  
Just rollin' cigarettes 
D5 
Holdin' back and chokin' back 
      G5                D5 
The shakes with every breath 
A5 
Forgive me all my anger 
   D5 
Forgive me all my faults 
        A5 
There's no need to forgive me 
      D5 
For thinkin' what I though  
   A5 
I loved you from the git go 
     D5 
I'll love you till I die 
   A5 
I loved you on the Spanish steps 
     G5                D5 
The day you said goodbye 
 
I am just a poor boy 

Work's my middle name 

If money was a reason 

I would not be the same 
 
I'll stand up and be counted 

I'll face up to the truth 

I'll walk away from trouble 

But I can't walk away from you 
 
I have been to Fort Worth 

I have been to Spain 

I have been to proud 

To come in out of the rain 
 
I have seen the David 

I've seen the Mona Lisa too 

I have heard Doc Watson 

Play Columbus Stockade Blues 
 
Repeat Chorus  
D5                     G5      D5 
I wish I was in Austin 
                    A5 
In the Chili Parlour Bar 
         D5 
Drinkin' Mad Dog Margaritas 
         G5               D5 
And not carin' where you are
