Parker McCollum – Galveston Bay (Guitar)

          C
Well you cant stop the ocean

         F             C
And you cant stop the wind

        C
Theyre here then theyre gone

           G           C
They don't come back again

 C
One will keep you rollin

         F         C
One will blow you away

         C                        G          C
Left me standin all alone next to Galveston bay

         C
Well a ramlblin gal

 F               C
Since you were young

    C
One big ball of yarn

         G             C
That was too tightly spun

     C
When you came unraveled

         F                  C
Girl you really got strung out

           C
And if you ever wind back up

             G           C
Well that's something I doubt

    F        C         G         C
Oh Galveston Bay looks pretty at night

           F              C          G
The water dancing in the drilling rig lights

    F               C          G             Am
And Ill stand here next to the wind and the waves

 F               C              G         C
Right where you left me next to Galveston bay

          C
Well the soldiers are marching

F          C
Off to the war

   C
We aint won it yet

           G            C
But we'll come back for more

     C                           F      C
And as I watch the battle ships sailin away

     C
From right where you left me

         G        C
Next to Galveston bay

          C
Well the clock just keeps a-tickin

     F          C
Time goes by so fast

        C
As the barges keep steamin

         G         C
Down the San Louis pass

 C
Under the black smoke

    F             C
The engines they roar

        C
And i'm right where you left me

      G           C
Right next to the shore

    F        C         G         C
Oh Galveston Bay looks pretty at night

           F              C          G
The water dancing in the drilling rig lights

    F               C          G             Am
And Ill stand here next to the wind and the waves

 F               C              G         C
Right where you left me next to Galveston bay

          C
Where the good times went

      F          C
Man I aint got a clue

         C
You took my red heart

               G       C
And turned it lavender blue

        C
Say you aint goin nowhere

F                C
Thinkin bout the past

C
I say the good times

        G               C
Are the ones that don't last

         C
Well the ocean breathes salty

        F             C
And the wind it blows hard

  C
I hope that youre happy

   G         C
Wherever you are

C
If you ever decide

F            C
Head back my way

       C
Ill be right where you left me

         G        C
Next to Galveston bay

    F        C         G         C
Oh Galveston Bay looks pretty at night

           F              C          G
The water dancing in the drilling rig lights

    F               C          G             Am
And Ill stand here next to the wind and the waves

 F               C              G         C
Right where you left me next to Galveston bay

 F               C              G         C
Right where you left me next to Galveston bay
