Dublin Blues

[Verse 1]
I wish I was in Austin
In the Chili Parlor Bar
Drinking Mad Dog Margaritas
And not caring where you are

Here I sit in Dublin
Just rolling cigarettes
Holding back and choking back
The shakes with every breath

[Chorus]
So forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
Ain't no need to forgive me
For thinking what I thought
I loved you from the get-go
I'll love you till I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye

[Verse 2]
Now I am just a poor boy
Work's my middle name
If money was a reason
Then 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

[Chorus]
Forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
Ain't no need to forgive me
For thinking what I thought
I loved you from the get-go
I'll love you till I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye

[Verse 3]
I have been to Fort Worth
I have been to Spain
I have been too proud
To come in out of the rain

I have seen the David
Seen the Mona Lisa too
I have heard Doc Watson
Play "Columbus Stockade Blues"

[Chorus]
So forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
Ain't no need to forgive me
For thinking what I thought
I loved you from the get-go
I'll love you till I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye

[Outro]
I wish I was in Austin
In the Chili Parlor Bar
Drinking Mad Dog Margaritas
And not caring where you are
