(Intro.)
None

(Verse 1)
(C)My mother says I have Irish eyes
(C)Irish eyes, Irish eyes
(C)My mother says I have Irish eyes
They go (Am)ever so (G)blue under (F)stormy (C)skies
But they池e (Am)never so (G)blue as when I (F)let them (C)cry

(Verse 2) 
(C)My father says I have English hair
(C)English hair, English hair
(C)Brown like the bark of an oak somewhere
Like the (Am)bed of a (G)lake where the (F)hemlock (C)grows
Like the (Am)thorn in the (G)stem of An (F)English (C)rose

(Chorus)
I知 a (C)map of the world and the ones before
One (C)foot in sea and one on shore
(C)Every step, every hope flung high
I知 a (NC)map of them all with my Irish (C)eyes
 
(Verse 3)
(C)My Nana says I have travelling feet
(C)Travelling feet, travelling feet
(C)Slippers for princesses don稚 fit me
But I (Am)dance to my (G)own drum, (F)bright and (C)bold
And my (Am)travelling (G)feet always (F)get me (C)home

(Verse 4)
(C)My sister says I致e a restless soul
(C)Restless soul, restless soul
(C)Easy to catch but I知 hard to hold
Like a (Am)song on the (G)wind that you (F(C))caught one (C)day
I get (Am)under your (G)skin, then I (F)slip a-(C)way

(Chorus)
I知 a (C)map of the worldand the (F)ones before (C)(C)
One (Am)foot in sea and (F)one on shore (C)
(C)Every step, every (F)hope flung (Am)high
I知 a (F)map of them all with my (G)Irish (C)eyes

(Verse 5)
(C)My mother says I have (Am)Irish eyes
(F)Irish eyes, (G) Irish eyes
(C)My mother says I have (Am)Irish eyes
They go (F)ever so (G)blue (C)

(Chorus)
I知 a (C)map of The world and the (F)ones be-(C)fore
One (C)foot in sea and (F)one on shore (C)
(C)Every step, every (F)hope flung (Am)high
I知 a (NC)map of them all with my Irish eyes - - - - -
