There’s a tear in your eye, and I’m wondering why
G7 | G7 | C | C | G7 | G7
For it never should be there at all With such power in your smile
C | A7 | D7 | D7 | G7 | G7
Sure a stone you’d beguile So there’s never a teardrop should fall
C | C | C | C
When your sweet lilting laughter’s like some fairy song
G7 | C C7 | F | F
And your eyes twinkle bright as can be
D7 | D7 | G | G | D7 | D7 | G | G7
You should laugh all the while and all other times smile And now smile a smile for me

When Irish eyes are smiling, sure’n tis like a morn in spring
F | F | C | A7 | D7 | D7 | G | G7
In the lilt of Irish laughter You can hear the angels sing

When Irish hearts are happy All the world seems bright and gay
