Verse 1:
Well, I [C] took a stroll on the old long walk, On a day-I-ay-I-[F]ay
I [C] met a little girl and we [F] stopped to [C] talk, on a grand-soft [G] day-I-[C]-ay
And I [F] ask you, [C] friend, what's a [F] fella to [C] do
'Cause her [Am] hair was [G] black and her [F] eyes were [C] blue
And I [F] knew right [C] then, I'd be [F] takin' a [C] whirl
'Round the [Am] Salthill [G] Prom with a [F] Galway [C] girl

Verse 2:
We were [C] halfway there when the rain came down, On a day-I-ay-I-[F]ay
And she [C] asked me up to her [F] flat down [C] town, on a grand-soft [G] day-I-[C]-ay
And I [F] ask you, [C] friend, what's a [F] fella to [C] do
'Cause her [Am] hair was [G] black and her [F] eyes were [C] blue
So I [F] took her [C] hand, and I [F] give her a [C] twirl
And I [Am] lost my [G] heart to a [F] Galway [C] girl

Verse 3:
When I [C] woke up I was all alone...On a day-I-ay-I-[F]ay
With a [C] broken heart and a [F] ticket [C]home, on a grand-soft [G] day-I-[C]-ay
And I [F] ask you [C] now, tell me what [F] would you [C] do
If her [Am] hair was [G] black and her [F] eyes were [C] blue
I've [F] traveled [C] around I've been all [F] over this [C] world...Boys
I ain't [Am] never seen [G] nothin' like a [F] Galway [C] girl
