1. I've been around in many a town, drinkin' away through the night,

         D                                                                                                      A          D

and all that I found, what goes up must come down, oh, boy, was I in for a fight !

                       D                             G                       A                                        D

    There's a girl over there with curls in her hair colours that dance in her eyes,

           D                              G                            D                A            D

    oh, I'll pray to God and I'll go to church if you'll be my angel tonight.

 

                             G - D      A                                    Bm              A

             D                                                                                     A               D

   and somehow though my havering tones my courage is sеcond to none.

        D                                G                           A                                     D
