The Little Irish Girl Tabulatur von Hermann Löhr

D                 G
As I went out one evening
     D         A
From Tipperary Town,
  D            G
I met a little Colleen 
  A7              A
Among the heather brown;
A7         D
"Ah!" says I 
                D7
"Perhaps you're lonely"
    D                 A
She tossed her pretty curl,
      D       G
"Well maybe I prefer it!"
Dmaj7    D
Och! the dear little girl!


     D                  G
Says I, "Perhaps you're married?"
     D                 A
Says she, "Perhaps I'm not!"
 D                    G
Says I, "I'll be your gossoon!" 
     A7                A
Says she, "I'll not be caught"
A7         D                 D7
"Oh! your eyes are like the ocean, 
         D               A
And your heart is like a pearl!" 
      D              G
Says she, "Well then I'll keep it!"
Dmaj7    D
Och! the dear little girl!


     D              G
Says I, "I've got a cabin,
     D                A
And pigs that number seven
D                 G
And oh! with you, Mavourneen, sure
    A7                  A
The place would be like heav'n!"
A7  D                 D7
Her eyes looked up in mine then,
   D              A
My heart was in a whirl; 
    D           G
The little pigs had done it!
Dmaj7    D
Och! the dear little girl!
