Steve Earle — Dublin Blues

[Verse 1] I wish I was in Austin In the Chili Parlor Bar Drinking Mad Dog Margaritas And not caring where you are Here I sit in Dublin Just rolling cigarettes Holding back and choking back The shakes with every breath [Chorus] So forgive me all my anger Forgive me all my faults Ain't no need to forgive me For thinking what I thought I loved you from the get-go I'll love you till I die I loved you on the Spanish steps The day you said goodbye [Verse 2] Now I am just a poor boy Work's my middle name If money was a reason Then I would not be the same I'll stand up and be counted I'll face up to the truth I'll walk away from trouble But I can't walk away from you [Chorus] Forgive me all my anger Forgive me all my faults Ain't no need to forgive me For thinking what I thought I loved you from the get-go I'll love you till I die I loved you on the Spanish steps The day you said goodbye [Verse 3] I have been to Fort Worth I have been to Spain I have been too proud To come in out of the rain I have seen the David Seen the Mona Lisa too I have heard Doc Watson Play "Columbus Stockade Blues" [Chorus] So forgive me all my anger Forgive me all my faults Ain't no need to forgive me For thinking what I thought I loved you from the get-go I'll love you till I die I loved you on the Spanish steps The day you said goodbye [Outro] I wish I was in Austin In the Chili Parlor Bar Drinking Mad Dog Margaritas And not caring where you are
