F C G
Now I must say more than ever (come on Eileen)
C Em F
Toora-loora-toora-loo-rye-aye
C G
and we can sing just like our fathers
CHORUS:

D F#m
With you in that dress, my thoughts (I confess)
Em G A
verge on dirty, Ah come on Eileen
A A C Em F C G
C Em
These people round here
F
wear beaten-down eyes sunk in smoke-dried faces,
C G
so resigned to what their fate is

we are far too young and clever remember
C Em F
Toora-loora-toora-loo-rye-aye
