Galveston oh Galveston
                  C7        F
I still hear your sea winds blowing
G       C                 F       G
I still see her dark eyes glowing
        Am       F      G     C   (F G C)
She was 21  when I left Galveston

Galveston oh Galveston
                  C7        F
I still hear your sea waves crashing
G       C                  F        G
While I watch the cannon's flashing
           Am      F        G     C   (F G C)
I clean my gun and dream of Galveston

I still see her standing by the water
Gm                            F D#
Standing there looking out to sea
                   Cm        A#
And is she waiting there for me
       Dm                     Cm
On the beach where we used to run

Galveston oh Galveston
     C7           F
I am so afraid of dying
G        C                   F      G
Before I dry the tears she's crying
         Am         C        F      G      F  D
Before I watch your seabirds flying in the sun
   G     Am  F         C
At Galveston  at Galveston
