Augusta - By Jeff Olson
(play in style of a ballad, Irish drinking song)
GOh how I Clove you AuGgusta
And Gnow that the Cyears have gone Gby
GI surely Csee how much Gyou meant to Emme
How I Gne’er thought thaCt you’d makeG me cry. D
But I Gsee your sweet Cghost through my Geyelids
How you’Gd comfort mCe when I waGs wrong
And those Gsweet memoCries are Gall I can Dsee
Now that Gyou, sweet CAugusta, are Ggone
G(Now I Sing)
DOh how I loved you AuCgusta my Gdear
DYou always knew how a Cman turned to Gfear
But you Ggave me your Cwarmth and you Gshed me a Emtear
How I Gloved you CAugusta my Gdear. D
GOh how we Cdanced on the Gsidewalk
As Gyou boldly Cclapped out a Gsong
G c G Em
And the boys and I knew that your smiles were true
And that Galways would Cmake me feel Gstrong D
For Gwhen I was Cyoung and Gunknowing
AuGgusta would Ckeep out an Geye
And whenGe’er Ca girl would leavGe me brokeDn hearted
She would Gcomfort me Cwhen I would Gcry
‘causDe you were the strong one whCo kept me iGn line
When DI had a problem you Calways had the Gtime
And GI would say Cnothing, is Gthat such a Emcrime?
How I Gloved that sweet Clady of Gmine. D
‘cause whGene’er Cyou felt filled wGith sorrow
She’Gd bring you Ca scotch or Ga beer
And she’Gd listen witCh eyes full oGf wisdom anEmd hope
And she’Gd alwayCs lend you botGh ears.
G(now we sing)
DOh how I love you CAugusta my Gdear
DYou always knew how a Cman turned to Gfear
But you Ggave me your Cwarmth and you Gshed me a Emtear
How I Glove you…
AuCgusta…
My Gdear… D G
