C                                              
Well, I took a stroll on the old long walk 

     C      F    F                            
On a day -I-ay-I-ay 

C                                              
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk 

     C         F      C                          
On a fine soft day -I-ay 

      F          C               F        C       
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do 

            Am                    F         C    
'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue 

        F         C           F         C        
And I knew right then I'd be takin' a whirl 

            Am                   F      C         
'Round the Salthill Prom with a Galway girl

C            
We were halfway there when the rain came down 

                 F                             
On a day -I-ay-I-ay 

        C                                     
And she asked me up to her flat downtown 

     C          F          C                    
Of a fine soft day -I-ay-I-ay 

      F        C                F        C        
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do 

            Am                    F         C       
'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue 

      F        C          F          C            
So I took her hand and I gave her a twirl 

       Am                F      C                
And I lost my heart to a Galway girl

[Verse 3]
C                                         F    
When I woke up I was all alone 

         C                              F  C       
With a broken heart and a ticket home 

      F        C            F             C     
And I ask you now, tell me what would you do 

        Am         F          F          C      
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue

            F        C                     F         C       
'Cause I've traveled around. I've been all over this world 

              Am                       F      C   
Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl
