Verse 1:
D
Well, I took a stroll on the old long walk

On a day —I—ay—I—ay 
Bm             A           G          D
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk 
G      		    A  D                          
On 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            D
On a day —I—ay—I—ay 
Bm             A           G          D
And she asked me up to her flat downtown 
G      		    A  D                          
Of a fine soft day —I—ay—I—ay

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

'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 

Verse 3:

When I woke up I was all alone 

G D

With a broken heart and a ticket home 

G D 

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                 
'Cause I've traveled around. 
    G         D       
I've been all over this world 
Bm                  A                  G      D   
Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl
