Steve Earle - Galway Girladd

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

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

A#     A#     A#     D#
D#  A#  D#  A#  F     A#       (ara solo)
D#                 F
D#  A#  D#  Gm F     A#

A#                                          D#
When I woke up I was all alone
         A#                              D#  A#
With a broken heart and a ticket home
      D#        A#            D#             A#
And I ask you now, tell me what would you do
       Gm         F            D#          A#
If her hair was black and her eyes were blue
       D#        A#                  D#          A#
I've traveled around I've been all over this world
        Gm               F              D#      A#
Boys I ain't never seen nothin' like a Galway girl
