***The Broad Majestic Shannon - by Shane MacGowan
from the album "If I Should Fall From Grace With God"
Note: I have added some fills that I play on guitar that duplicate other
instruments on the song. I also added the bridge that was missing.

The Broad Majestic Shannon - as perfomed by The Pogues
D G D Bm D G A D (with Main Riff)
The Dlast time I saw you was Gdown at the DGreeks
There was Dwhiskey on Sunday and Gtears on our Bmcheeks
You Dsang me a song as pure as the Gbreeze
on a Droad leading Gup GlenaAveigh
I Dsat for a while at the Gcross at FinDnoe
Where young Dlovers would meet when the Gflowers were in Bmbloom
DHeard the men coming home from the fair at ShinGrone
Their Dhearts in TippeGrary wherAever they Dgo
Take my Dhand, and dry your Gtears Ababe
Take my Dhand, forget your Gfears Ababe
There's no Dpain, there's no more GsorArow
They're all Dgone, G gone in the Ayears babe
D G D Bm D G A D (with Main Riff)
I sat for a while by the gap in the wall
Found a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball
Heard the cards being dealt, and the rosary called
And a fiddle playing Sean Dun na nGall
And the next time I see you we'll be down at the Greeks
There'll be whiskey on Sunday and tears on our cheeks
For it's stupid to laugh and it's useless to bawl
About a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball

Where small birds Dsang and leaves were GfallAing
Where we once Dwatched the row boats GlandAing

[Chorus 2]
So I walked as day was dawning
Where small birds sang and leaves were falling
Where we once watched the row boats landing
By the broad majestic Shannon
