Well^D, I took a stroll on the old long walk On a day -I-ay-^AI-ay ^G I ^D met a little girl and we stopped to talk On a fine soft day ^G -I-ay ^D And ^G I ask you, friend ^D, what's ^G a fella to do ^D 'Cause her hair ^Hmi was black and her eyes ^G were blue ^D And ^G I knew right then ^D I'd ^G be takin' a whirl ^D 'Round the Salthill ^Hmi Prom with ^G a Galway girl ^D Mezihra ^D / / / ^Hmi / ^{GD D}/ / / ^A / ^{G D} We were halfway there when the rain came down On a day -I-ay-I-ay And she asked me up to her flat downtown 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 So I took her hand and I gave her a twirl And I lost my heart to a Galway girl Mezihra (2X) When I woke up I was all alone With a broken heart and a ticket home And I ask you now, tell me what would you do If her hair was black and her eyes were blue 'Cause I've traveled around. I've been all over this world Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl Mezihra (3X)
