C
Well, I took a stroll on the old long walk
F
Of a day-I-ay-I-ay
C
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk
F C
Of a fine soft day-I-ay-I-ay
F C
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do?
Am G F C
'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue
F C
And I knew right then I'd be takin' a whirl
Am G F C
'Round the Salthill Prom with a Galway girl
[Instrumental]

C
We were halfway there when the rain came down
F
Of a day-I-ay-I-ay
Am G F C
So, she asked me up to her flat downtown
F C
Of a fine soft day-I-ay-I-ay
F C
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do?
Am G F C
'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue
F C
So, I took her hand and I gave her a twirl
Am G F C
And I lost my heart to a Galway girl
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
C
When I woke up I was all alone
Am G F C
With a broken heart and a ticket home
F C
And I ask you now, tell me what would you do?
Am G F C
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue
F C
You see, I've traveled around, I've been all over this world
Am G F C
But I've never seen nothin' like the Galway girl
