Well, I took a stroll on the old long walk

                G
One a day -I-ay-I-ay

Bm             A           G          D 
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk

               A   D    
Of a fine soft day-I-ay

      G        D                G        D 
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do

           Bm       A             G         D
'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue

      G          D           G        D  
And I knew right then I'd be takin' a whirl

           Bm       A           G      D   
'Round the Salthill Prom with a Galway girl

We were halfway there when the rain came down

               G    
Of a day -I-ay-I-ay

        Bm       A         G        D
And she asked me up to her flat downtown

               A     D    
Of a fine soft day-I-ay

      G        D                G        D
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to do

           Bm       A             G         D
'Cause her hair was black and her eyes were blue

     G        D          G          D 
So I took her hand and I gave her a twirl

      Bm      A          G      D    
And I lost my heart to a Galway girl

D                                               G
When I woke up I was all alone (of a day-i-ay-i-ay)

       Bm     A           G      D                    A     D   
With a broken heart and a ticket home (of a fine soft day-i-a)

      G       D            G              D  
And I ask you now, tell me what would you do

       Bm       A             G         D
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue

     G        D                 G             D
I've traveled around, I've been all over this world

       Bm               A              G      D
Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl
