Galway Bay Ukulele tab

	  G                                D7 
If you ever go across the sea to Ireland 

                                  G 
Then maybe at the closing of your day 

                                          C 
You will sit and watch the moon rise over Claddagh 

    D7                            G 
And see the sun go down on Galway Bay 


                                       D7 
Just to hear again the rippling of the trout stream 

                                    G 
See the women in the meadows making hay 

                                     C 
And to sit beside a turf fire in the cabin 

    D7                                   G 
And watch the barefoot gossoons at their play 


                                             D7 
For the strangers came and tried to teach us their way 

                                     G 
They scorn us just for being what we are 

                                        C 
But they might as well go chasing after moonbeams 

   D7                          G 
Or light a penny candle from a star 


                                  D7 
And if there's going to be a life hereafter 

                                       G 
And somehow I am sure there's going to be 

                                    C 
I will ask my God to let me make my heaven 

   D7                              G 
In that dear land across the Irish sea 


         D7                              G 
So I can watch the sun go down on Galway Bay
