D
Well I took a stroll on the old long walk
                 G
Of a day -I-ay-I-ay
  D
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk
     A         G      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

[Verse 2]

D
We were halfway there when the rain came down
                 G
Of a day -I-ay-I-ay
    D
And she asked me up to her flat Downtown
     A         G      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 gave her a twirl
      Bm      A          G      D
And I lost my heart to a Galway Girl

[Bridge]

D                                G
When I woke up I was all alone
       Bm     A           G      D
With a broken heart and a ticket home

[Chorus]

      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 the world
         Bm         A              G      D
And I've never seen nothin' like a Galway Girl

[Chorus]

      G        D                   G     D
And I ask you, friend, what's a fella to 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 the world
     Bm         A              G      D
I've never seen nothin' like a Galway Girl
