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

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

[Verse]
G
When I woke up I was all alone
     G     D     C
On a day-I-ay-I-ay
       Em     D           C      G
With a broken heart and a ticket home
      G          C          G
Of a grand soft day-I-ay-I-ay
      C        G            C             G
And I ask you now, tell me what would you do
       Em         D            C          G
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue
       C        G                  C          G
I've traveled around I've been all over this world
        Em               D              C      G
Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl
