Galway Girl

G

[Verse 1]
         G
Well, I took a stroll down the old 
Long Walk
                  C
On the day -I-ay-I-ay
   G                        C
I met a little girl and we stopped 
to talk
      Em        D           G
On a grand soft day -I-ay-I-ay

[Chorus]
                G               
And I ask you, friends, what's a 
          G
fella to do
             C       Em         
'Cause her hair was black and her 
   D          G
eyes were blue
                   G               
And I knew right then I'd be takin'
     G
 a whirl
               C     Em           
Down the Salthill Prom with a 
D      G
Galway girl

[Verse 2]
         G
We were halfway there when the rain 
came down
                    C
On the day -I-ay-I-ay
         G                  C
And she asked me up to her flat 
downtown
       Em        D           G
On a grand soft day -I-ay-I-ay

[Chorus]
                G               
And I ask you, friends, what's a 
           G
fella to do
             C       Em           
'Cause her hair was black and her 
D          G
eyes were blue
              G                    
So I took her hand and I gave her a
   G
 twirl
       C        Em         D      G
And I lost my heart to a Galway girl

[Bridge]
      G                           C
When I woke up I was all alone
        C      Em          D     
With a broken heart and a ticket 
   G
home

[Chorus]
                 G               
And I ask you friends, what would 
      G
you do
        C        Em              
If her hair was black and her 
D        G
eyes were blue
                     G             
See I've travelled around, I've 
                 G
been all over this world
                   C           Em 
Boys, but I ain't never seen 
            D       G
nothin' like a Galway girl
