[C]Poor old Johnny R[Em]ay
Sounded [F]sad upon the radio moved a [C]million hearts in [G]mono
[C] Our mothers cried
[F]Sang along, [F]who'd blame them[C][G]
[C]You're grown (you're grown up), [Em]so grown (so grown up)
[F]Now I must say more than ever [C] [G] (come on Eileen)
[C]Toora-loora-[Em]toora-loo-rye-[F]aye
and we can [C]sing just like our [G]fathers
[D]Come on Eileen oh, I [F#m]swear (well he means)
at this [Em]moment you mean [G]everyth[A]ing
With [D]you in that dress, my [F#m]thoughts (I confess)
verge on [Em]dirty, Ah come [G]on Eil[A]een
||A |A ||
||C |Em |F |C G ||
[C]These people round [Em]here
wear beaten-[F]down eyes sunk in smoke-dried faces,
so res[C]igned to what their f[G]ate is
but [C]not us (no never) no [Em]not us (no never)
[F]we are far too young and clever [C] [G] remember
[C]Toora-loora-[Em]toora-loo-rye-[F]aye
Eileen I'll [C]hum this tune for [G]ever
[D]Come on Eileen, oh I [F#m]swear (well he means)
Ah come [Em]on let's take off [G]everyt[A]hing
That [D]pretty red dress, Ei[F#m]leen (tell him yes)
Ah come [Em]on let's, ah come [G]on Ei[A]leen
That [D]pretty red dress, Ei[F#m]leen (tell him yes)
Ah come [Em]on let's, ah come [G]on Eil[A]een
[D]Please...
[D] (Come on Eileen too-loo rye-[F#m]aye come on)
Backing: "Eileen too-loo rye-ay toora toora-too-loora" etc.
[G]Now you have grown, now you have shown,[D] oh Eil[A]een
[D]Come on Eileen, these things they are [F#m]real and I know
how you feel [G]Now I must say more than ever
[D] things round here have [A]changed
[D]Too-ra loo-ra [F#m]too-ra loo-rye-[G]aye[D][A]
