Girl On The Greenbriar Shore

                          D                                     G           D
    'Twas in the year of '92, in the merry month of June,

    I left my mother and a home so dear
                        A                                       D      D G D A D
    for the girl I loved on the Greenbriar shore.

                         D                                                     G             D
    My mother dear, she came to me and said "Oh son, don't go,"

    "Don't leave your mother and a home so dear
                    A                                   D        D G D A D
    to trust a girl on the Greenbriar shore. "

                      D                                                            G           D
    But I was young and reckless, too, and I craved a reckless life,

    I left my mother with a broken heart,
                                    A                   D      D G D A D
    and I choosed that girl to be my wife.

                           D                                                   G                D
    Her hair was dark and curly, too and her loving eyes were blue,

    her cheeks were like the red red rose,
                   A                                       D         D G D A D
    the girl I loved on the Greenbriar shore.

                                D                                                             G     D
    The years rolled on and the months rolled by, she left me all alone,

    now I remember what mother said :
                           A                                   D
    Never trust a girl on the Greenbriar shore.
