[Verse]
GYou'd insist we'd share the Amdriving when we Dleft the city Glights
In a Gclapped out CMorris Minor heading Gwest on Friday Cnights
And the Gheater Dwasn't Cworking and we Gnever had a Cspare
But we Gcalled that old car CFlattery, 'cause it Ggot Dus everywGherCeG  
And Dwhen we'd stop to Cpitch the Gtent it Calways Dseemed to Grain
And it's Cthen that I'd Gdiscover you'd Aforgot the pegs agDainDsus4  D  
And I Gcouldn't Dget the Emcampfire Bmlit no Cmatter how I GtriGsus4edG  
Don't you reDmemDsus4berD  
We had Groadside Dstops for Embread and Bmcheese and CSupermarket GWine
When the Cworld was ours and GI was yours
And DI thought you were GminCeG  
[Bridge]
G   D   Em  Bm
C   D   G C G
[Verse]
GDo you remember Galway AmRaces and the Dman in Harris GTweed?
Who, Gbecause he knew your Cfather, said he'd Gdo us a good deedC  
And the Ghorse he Dput our Cmoney on, I'd Gswear it's running Cstill
And we Gwere staying in a Cboarding house and Gcouldn't Dpay the GbilClG  
But you Dlaughed when I went CoverboaGrd - you Ctold me Dnot to Gswear
Saying "the Ctown's full of GAmericans - let's go Abusking in Eyre SquaDreDsus4  D  
And the GBlarney DStone and the EmleprechBmauns will Csurely see us thrGougGsus4h"G  
Don't you DreDsus4memberD  
We sang GDanny DBoy and EmGalway BmBay at lCeast eighty seven Gtimes
And the Cworld was ours and GI was yours
And DI thought you were GminCeG  
[Bridge]
G   D   Em  Bm
C   D   G C G
[Verse]
GYou called me from the Amairport just Dbefore you caught your Gplane
And you Gtold me Cyou were Gleaving but that GI was not to Cblame
And you Ghoped that DI would Cunderstand and we'd Galways be good Cfriends
But I Gknew from what you sCaid that we would Gnever Dmeet GagaCinG  
But I Dmust confess it Churt like GHell and Cthat I Dmiss you yGet
For you Cwere not the Gkind of girl tAhat's easy to DforDsus4getD  
And Gsometimes Dsome half-Emforgotten Bmfragment of Cyou trips my GminGsus4dG  
And I reDmemDsus4berD  
All those Groadside Dstops for Embread and Bmcheese and CSupermarket Gwine
When the Cworld was ours and GI was yours
and I Dthought you were GminCeG  
All those Groadside Dstops for Embread and Bmcheese and CSupermarket Gwine
When the Cworld was ours and GI was yours
and I Dthought you were GminCeG

[Intro]

G D Em Bm

C D G C G

[Verse]

G Am D G

You'd insist we'd share the driving when we left the city lights

G C G C

In a clapped out Morris Minor heading west on Friday nights

G D C G C

And the heater wasn't working and we never had a spare

G C G D G C G

But we called that old car Flattery, 'cause it got us everywhere

D C G C D G

And when we'd stop to pitch the tent it always seemed to rain

C G A D Dsus4 D

And it's then that I'd discover you'd forgot the pegs again

G D Em Bm C G Gsus4 G

And I couldn't get the campfire lit no matter how I tried

D Dsus4 D

Don't you remember

G D Em Bm C G

We had roadside stops for bread and cheese and Supermarket Wine

C G

When the world was ours and I was yours

D G C G

And I thought you were mine

[Bridge]

G D Em Bm

C D G C G

[Verse]

G Am D G

Do you remember Galway Races and the man in Harris Tweed?

G C G C

Who, because he knew your father, said he'd do us a good deed

G D C G C

And the horse he put our money on, I'd swear it's running still

G C G D G C G

And we were staying in a boarding house and couldn't pay the bill

D C G C D G

But you laughed when I went overboard - you told me not to swear

C G A D Dsus4 D

Saying "the town's full of Americans - let's go busking in Eyre Square

G D Em Bm C G Gsus4 G

And the Blarney Stone and the leprechauns will surely see us through"

D Dsus4 D

Don't you remember

G D Em Bm C G

We sang Danny Boy and Galway Bay at least eighty seven times

C G

And the world was ours and I was yours

D G C G

And I thought you were mine

[Bridge]

G D Em Bm

C D G C G

[Verse]

G Am D G

You called me from the airport just before you caught your plane

G C G G C

And you told me you were leaving but that I was not to blame

G D C G C

And you hoped that I would understand and we'd always be good friends

G C G D G C G

But I knew from what you said that we would never meet again

D C G C D G

But I must confess it hurt like Hell and that I miss you yet

C G A D Dsus4 D

For you were not the kind of girl that's easy to forget

G D Em Bm C G Gsus4 G

And sometimes some half-forgotten fragment of you trips my mind

D Dsus4 D

And I remember

G D Em Bm C G

All those roadside stops for bread and cheese and Supermarket wine

C G

When the world was ours and I was yours

D G C G

and I thought you were mine

G D Em Bm C G

All those roadside stops for bread and cheese and Supermarket wine

C G

When the world was ours and I was yours

D G C G

and I thought you were mine
