Gaelic Storm is a highly-acclaimed Celtic band. Their music ranges from traditional Irish and Scottish music to original tunes, in both the Celtic traditions. Gaelic Storm's origins can be traced back to 1996, when Patrick Murphy and Steve Wehmeyer joined with Steve Twigger and Uillean piper Brian Walsh to perform at O'Brien's Irish Pub and Restaurant in Santa Monica, California, of which Murphy was the manager. This led to a number of pub performances for the next year.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Gaelic Storm - Just Ran Out of Whiskey ======================================= Tabbed by Owen Tosh [email protected] http://42.servehttp.com
Intro: Em
Em I got a fresh tattoo of a broken heart You'd think I'd learn by now but I ain't that smart DEm I got a pocket full of nothing, head full of lukewarm beer EmBm I just wanted to make myself feel good DA Feel like I've been understood GAD/F#Em I was wrong, I've been wrong three times this year
Em I pushed off from shore in this leaky boat With my only friend, a bottle of whiskey in my coat DEm I was going to drown my sorrows, discuss my attitude EmBm I lay down on my back, I started to curse DA Insulted every planet in the universe GAEm Hey Jupiter, if you're listening, I didn't mean to be that rude
D Hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la, Em How hard can it be? D Hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la, hey la, la, la, Em How hard can it be? Let me tell you now, GAD/F#Em I just ran out of whiskey and I'm stranded out at sea
Em Now as the light begins to fade the sun disappears I see a siren singing in a sea of tears DEm I know it's you, I can tell by your hair EmBm And my pulse begins to quicken as I row through the tide DA I want to lay my head down at your side GAD/F#Em Then you slip into the sea, you're gone, that ain't fair
Em The sea was as black as a pirate's soul A black velvet bag, a big dark hole DEm Just reflections of the mocking moon above EmBm Then a shooting star shot across the skies DA It was then I began to realize GAEm I would give it all away if I could have your love
(Chorus)
Em Now I pulled myself together, had a little chat With my empty bottle and this little cat DEm He'd been hiding, he'd been there for a while EmBm Well I told him how I missed you, how you made me feel DA And even though that cat wasn't real GAD/F#Em It cheered me up and it made me smile
Em I stood up in that boat and I laughed till I cried I danced a little two-step with my pride DEm Then I thought about jumping in again, I was so alone EmBm Well you know I couldn't do it cause I'm standing here DA It may have been the liquor, it may have been the fear GAEm Besides how would that cat have got back home?
