St Olavs Gate

A

[Verse]
A                                 
Drinking black market vodka in the
                           Bm
 back of the Scottsman's saloon
          E                        
Then it's red meat and whiskey like
                       A
 a coyote drunk on the moon
Outside in Oslo the buskers all sing
          D    D/C  Bm
 the same tune
         E                         
And it's Waltzin' Matilda while the
                             A
 bagpipes play old Claire de Lune


[Verse]
A                                 
She was a lady, she came down from
            Bm
 Bergen she said
    E                         
She spoke little English, they 
                             A
laughed and drank whiskey instead

In the mornin' he found it, a rose 
                   D     D/C  Bm
with a note on his plate
          E                        
It said, "Meet me at midnight on 
                       A
the corner of St. Olav's Gate"


[Chorus]
A                                 
Here's to the ladies you love and 
           Bm
don't see again
    E                         
The night is warm whiskey, the 
                        A
mornin's a cold bitter wind
Yeah the blue eyed madonna leaves 
                           D     
town while the drunken man waits
D/C  Bm

E                                 
Standing alone in the shadows of 
          A
St. Olav's Gate

A  Bm  E  A  D  D/C  Bm  E  A


[Chorus]
A                                 
Here's to the ladies you love and 
           Bm
don't see again
    E                         
The night is warm whiskey, the 
                        A
mornin's a cold bitter wind
Yeah the blue eyed madonna left town
                       D     D/C  Bm
 while the drunken man waits
E                                 
Standing alone in the shadows of
