(PhilLynott @ ultimate-guitar.com) Song:   Buffalo Gal Artist: Thin Lizzy Album:  Shades of a Blue Orphanage Lyrics: www.sing365.com Tuning: EADGBe (normal) This one didnt take to long. Thin Lizzy are using two guitars and one of them is doing a bit soloing and some riffs throughout the song and I’m not tabbing that guitar. Notes: -Don’t play the lightest e-string one the C#m-chord. It sounds better without it. -Let the final A at the chorus ring (or whatever you call it in english) Hold ivertfall den siste -I’m not gonna set up the chords on the whole song but just on the first verse and chorus. The chords are the same at all of them anyway. Buffalo Gal you’ve had your fun Your button’s undone and the time’s right for slaughter Buffalo Gal You’re thirsty and there’s no more water Like the lamb on the altar      And it’s sad to see you looking down and feeling blue Try your best to get on up and see it through In a while you might smile and see the sun     Oww the day has begun {Chorus}      And Buffalo Gal they’re closing down the old dance hall Ummm Buffalo Gal   what we gonna do now?   Buffalo Gal due to these circumstances there’s no more dances Buffalo gal [Buffalo] all your chances of further romances will have to be nil ’til I can get it sung Is a shame your only claim to fame is Jessie James You know his middle name That’s very strange Stranger you knew a friend called the Friendly Ranger Oh ya shared the danger (repeat chorus) Buffalo Gal you must try a big step You’ve got a big jump ahead Buffalo gal the show left town spreading sunshine all around And it’s bad to see ya ooh lookin’ blue Dry your eyes and I’ll apologise for all the lies you’ll be smiling through            Ooh Buffalo Gal they’re closin’ down the old dance hall [Buffalo (repeat 10 times) Gal Gal] And Buffalo Gal oh you look so good somehow [Buffalo (repeat 9 times) Gal] Oh Buffalo Gal oh that’s such a pretty dress [Buffalo (repeat 8 times) Gal] Buffalo Gal                    the show left town [Buffalo (repeat 8 times) Gal Gal] Buffalo Gal take a picture                                 of Buffalo Gal [Buffalo (repeat 10 times)]

La chanson évoque une jeune femme, surnommée Buffalo Gal, qui traverse une période de désillusion et de tristesse. Elle semble avoir perdu l'entrain et se retrouve dans une situation difficile, où les plaisirs d'autrefois, comme les danses, ne sont plus disponibles. Avec une atmosphère nostalgique, les paroles la poussent à relever la tête et à envisager un avenir plus radieux, même si le chemin semble semé d'embûches. Le contexte de la chanson se situe dans une ambiance de clubs de danse qui ferment, symbolisant la fin d’une époque joyeuse et insouciante. On sent que malgré la mélancolie, il y a une invitation à la résilience et à ne pas oublier les bons moments passés. Le texte mêle des références à des figures historiques, ce qui ajoute une dimension de mystère et d'aventure à son histoire.
