Capo 5

Intro in C
F                C            G             C
Scar face in the corner, he's looking for a fight
   F                  C           G
It sure looks good in Galveston tonight
        F                          C                 G                       Am 
And I'm right in the middle of the riff raff and the rough necks are wasting time
        F                   G                   C 
And the girl with the dirty hair says she'll be mine

Scarface used to tell me "gone are the fishing days"
The cajuns fished the red fish all away
I got that dirty haired woman says she'll be mine till the end
Till the Cajuns stop dancing and the red fish come back again


Chorus

Solo

If I had some sense I'd be five years gone
Everyone I used to know they just moved on
Me and mother ocean we stare into the night
The boats are tied and there's not a soul in sight

I thought to myself I'd have done it all by now
I got stuck in Galveston some how
She's twisting and she's churning, she won't leave me alone
But the girl with the dirty hair said she'd drive me home

Chorus
