The Amfirst pub we could Cstagger Gto was Amtwelve steps from the CplaneG  
A ViAmrgin flight to CShannonGtown the Amday it didn't CrainG  
The Amlaughing eyes of CIreGland sAmparkling blue and CgreenG  
With Amhair as black as CGuinness Gstout and Ambarely seventeenC  G  
WFe're back out on the cobblestones Ewhiskey drunk and high
DmLiquored up and gearing up for Gseven nights in AmIreland C  G  
Am      C   G
[Verse]
The Amcorner booth is Cwaiting Gfor the Amsession to begiCnG  
It's Amquiet as a Cmother's Gprayer till Amwe all stumble CinG  
And it's Amfifty happy Cvoices Gmixed with Amwhistles made of CtinG  
And a Ampiper man is Cblowing Glike the AmNorth Atlantic windC  G  
FAnd an Eire island beauty is Esawing on the violin 
DmI wonder will she miss me after Gseven nights in AmIrelandC  G

It's AmLadies' Day in CGalway Gand we Amwatched the ponies CrunG  
AmFifty pounds Cagainst the Godds and Amcame in six to ConeG  
McAmSwiggin heard the Crace Greport, he Aminvited us on CinG  
So Amwe drank Catholic Cwhiskey Gwith Amall our newfounCd Gfriends
FThey raised a glass to all of us and Ewe all toasted them

Chords in this song · guitar

[Intro]

Am C G

x 4

[Verse]

Am C G Am C G

The first pub we could stagger to was twelve steps from the plane

Am C G Am C G

A Virgin flight to Shannontown the day it didn't rain

Am C G Am C G

The laughing eyes of Ireland sparkling blue and green

Am C G Am C G

With hair as black as Guinness stout and barely seventeen

F E

We're back out on the cobblestones whiskey drunk and high

Dm G Am C G

Liquored up and gearing up for seven nights in Ireland

Am C G

[Verse]

Am C G Am C G

The corner booth is waiting for the session to begin

Am C G Am C G

It's quiet as a mother's prayer till we all stumble in

Am C G Am C G

And it's fifty happy voices mixed with whistles made of tin

Am C G Am C G

And a piper man is blowing like the North Atlantic wind

F E

And an Eire island beauty is sawing on the violin

Dm G Am C G

I wonder will she miss me after seven nights in Ireland

Am C G

F F Dm G

Am C G

x 2

[Verse]

Am C G Am C G

It's Ladies' Day in Galway and we watched the ponies run

Am C G Am C G

Fifty pounds against the odds and came in six to one

Am C G Am C G

McSwiggin heard the race report, he invited us on in

Am C G Am C G

So we drank Catholic whiskey with all our newfound friends

F E

They raised a glass to all of us and we all toasted them

Dm G Am C G

Here's to Michael, Tom and Pat and seven nights in Ireland

Am C G

F F Dm G

Am C G

x 2

[Verse]

Am C G Am C G

we kissed all the girls goodbye and gathered in our gear

Am C G Am C G

And when she walked me to the gate I swear I saw a tear

Am C G Am C G

But then she looked into my eyes I knew she felt my pain

Am C G Am C G

And only then I realized we were standing in the rain

F E

So save our places at the pub and when the eyes are dry again

Dm G Am C G

We'll come back another day for seven nights in Ireland

[Outro]

Am C G

F F Dm G
