Galway Bay – Traditional
[Verse]
D A
If you ever go across the sea to Ireland
A7 D
Then maybe at the closing of your day
Em
You could sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh
A7 D
Or watch the sun go down on Galway Bay
[Verse]
D A
For the breezes blowing o'er the sea to Ireland
A7 D
Are perfumed by the heather as they blow
Em
And the women in the uplands diggin' praties
A7 D
Speak a language that the strangers do not know
[Verse]
D A
For the strangers came and tried to teach their way
A7 D
And scorned us just for being what we are
Em
But they might as well go chasing after moonbeams
A7 D
Or light a penny candle from a star
[Verse]
D D
And if there is going to be a life hereafter
A7 D
And somehow I am sure there's gonna to be
Em
I will ask my God to let me make my heaven
A7 D
In that dear land across the Irish sea
