Glen Campbell - Galveston

written by jimmy webb .
its actually in the key of F , but is much easier and enjoyable to play in G .

G C D7 G G7 C Am7
galveston , oh galveston , i still hear your sea winds blowin’
D7 G C Am7
i still see her dark eyes glowin’
D7 Em C G
she was twenty – one when i left galveston

G C D7 G G7 C Am7
galveston , oh galveston , i still hear your sea waves crashing
D7 G C Am7
while i watch the cannons flashing
D7 Em C G
i clean my gun and dream of galveston

A# C A# C
i still see her standing by the water
Dm A#
standing there lookin’ out to sea
Gm C7 F
and is she waiting there for me?
Am Dm Gm C D7
on the beach where we used to run

G C D7 G G7 C Am7
galveston , oh galveston , i Am so afraid of dying
D7 G C Am7
before i dry the tears she’s crying
Em C Bm Am7
before i watch your sea birds flying in the sun
E C G
at galveston , at galveston .
