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

Verse 2
[D]We were halfway there when the rain came down
On a day [G]-I-ay-I-ay
And she [D]asked me up to her flat downtown
Of a [D]fine soft [G]day [D]-I-ay-I-ay
And I [G]ask you, [D]friend, what's a [G]fella to [D]do
'Cause her [Bm]hair was [A]black and her [G]eyes were [D]blue
So I [G]took her [D]hand and I [G]gave her a [D]twirl
And I [Bm]lost my heart to a [G]Galway [D]girl
Bridge

Verse 3
[D]When I woke up I was all alone [G]
With a [D]broken heart and a ticket home [G][D]
And I [G]ask you [D]now, tell me [G]what would you [D]do
If her [Bm]hair was [A]black and her [G]eyes were [D]blue
'Cause I've [G]traveled [D]around. I've been all [G]over this [D]world
Boys I ain't [Bm]never seen [A]nothin' like a [G]Galway [D]girl
