Verse
G# C# G#
It's far away I am today
D# G#
from scenes I roamed a boy
D# G# C#
And long ago the hour, I know
D#
I first saw Illinois
G# C#
But time nor tide nor waters wide
D#
could wean my heart away
G# C# G#
Forever true it flies to you
D# G#
my own dear Galway Bay
[Verse 2]
G# C# G#
Both grey and bleak, by shore and creek
D# G#
the rugged rocks abound
D# G# C#
But sweet and green the grass between
D#
that grows on Irish ground
G# C#
So friendship fond all else beyond
D#
and love to live always
G# C# G#
Bless each dear home beside your foam
D# G#
my own dear Galway Bay
[Verse 3]
G# C# G#
My chosen bride is by my side
D# G#
her brown hair silvery-grey
D# G# C#
Our daughter oh so like her grows
D#
as April dawn to day
G# C#
Our only boy, his mothers joy
C# D#
and his father's pride so gay
G# C# G#
With gifts like these I'd live at ease
D# G#
Beside you Galway Bay
[Verse 4]
G# C# G#
Had I youth's blood and hopeful mood
D# G#
and heart of fire once more
D# G# C#
For all the gold the earth could hold
D#
I'd never leave your shore
G# C#
I'd live content whatever God sent
D#
midst neighbors old and grey
G# C# G#
And lay my bones 'neath churchyard stones
D# G#
beside you Galway Bay
[Verse 5]
G# C# G#
The blessings of a poor old man
D# G#
be with you night and day
D# G# C#
The blessings of a lonely man
D#
whose heart will soon be clay
G# C#
'Tis all the heaven I ask of God
D#
upon my dying day
G# C# G#
My soul to soar forever more
D# G#
above you, Galway Bay
