TITLE: A Walk in the Irish Rain
Lyrics and Chords


When the sun goes down o'er Dublin town
The colors last for hours, oh
The lights come on, the night's a song
And the streets all turn to gold

/ C - F C / C - G - / C - F C / C G C - /

A gentle mist all heaven kissed
Like teardrops off an angel's wing
Don't you know you'll cleanse your soul
With a walk in the Irish rain

{Refrain}
Oh, Katherine, take my hand
I've got three pounds and change
And I'll sing you songs of love again
And when I get too drunk to sing
We'll walk in the Irish rain

/ C - Dm - / C - G - / C - Dm - / C - F - / C G C - /

Forever more I've stepped ashore
My sailing days are over, oh
Through time and tide and by your side
Together we'll grow old

I threw my sea bag in the bin
And brought these pretty flowers home
Kiss me Kate, we'll celebrate
Before the bloom is gone

{Refrain}

A tinker and a tailor and a drunken old sailor
They all get together and they start to play
Time stands still while they sing their fill
They'll shout 'til the break of day

A sweet little lady with a glass of stout
Sippin' it down 'til the foam runs out
She'll help her old man home again
With a walk in the Irish rain

{Refrain}
