D D 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 D Of a fine soft day -I-ay-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 Bridge: D G D G D G D A D 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 D Of a fine soft day -I-ay-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 BRIDGE (2X) D G When I woke up I was all alone Of a day - I ay I -ay D A D With a broken heart and a ticket home Of a fine soft day -I - ay 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 BRIDGE (3X)
