[Am]The first pub we could st[C]agger to was tw[G]elve steps from the pl[Am]ane
A Virgin flight to Shann[C]ontown the d[G]ay it didn't r[Am]ain
The laughing eyes of Ire[C]land spa[G]rkling blue and gr[Am]een
With hair as black as Gui[C]nness stout and ba[G]rely sevent[Am]een
W[F]e're back out on the cobblestones wh[Am]iskey drunk and high
Li[G]quored up and gearing up for seven nights in Ir[Am]eland
Am, C, G, Am x2
[Am]The corner booth is wai[C]ting for the se[G]ssion to b[Am]egin
It's quiet as a mot[C]her's prayer ?ti[G]ll we all stumble i[Am]n
And it's fifty happy vo[C]ices mixed with whi[G]stles made of [Am]tin
And a piper man is blo[C]wing like the No[G]rth Atlantic w[Am]ind
[F]And an Aran island beauty is sa[Am]wing on the violin
I[G] wonder will she miss me after seven nights in Ir[Am]eland
Am, C, G, Am x2
[Am]It's Ladies' Day in Ga[C]lway and we wat[G]ched the ponies [Am]run
Fifty pounds ag[C]ainst the odds and c[G]ame in six to o[Am]ne
McSwiggin heard the ra[C]ce report, he in[G]vited us on i[Am]n
So we drank Catholic wh[C]iskey with a[G]ll our newfound frien[Am]ds
[F]They raised a glass to all of us and we a[Am]ll toasted them
H[G]ere's to Michael, Tom and Pat and seven nights in Ir[Am]eland
Am, C, G, Am x2
w[Am]e kissed all the gi[C]rls goodbye and ga[G]thered in our g[Am]ear
And when she wa[C]lked me to the gate I sw[G]ear I saw a te[Am]ar
But then she looked in[C]to my eyes I kn[G]ew she felt my p[Am]ain
And only then I re[C]alized we were sta[G]nding in the ra[Am]in
S[F]o save our places at the pub and wh[Am]en the eyes are dry
W[G]e'll come back another day for seven nights in I[Am]reland
