Galway Girl
Steve Earle
[Verse 1]
D G
Well, I took a stroll on the old long walk. Of a day -I-ay-I-ay
D G D D A D
I met a little girl and we stopped to talk. 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
[solo]

[Verse 2]
D G
We were halfway there when the rain came down. Of a day -I-ay-I-ay
Bm A G D D A D
And she asked me up to her flat downtown. 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 I gave her a twirl
Bm A G D
And I lost my heart to a Galway girl

[Verse 3]
D D G
When I woke up I was all alone. [melody only on this line]
Bm A G D D A D
With a broken heart and a ticket home. [melody only on this line]
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
