[Verse - no full drums - just bass drum]
Well, I [D] took a stroll on the old long walk
On a [D] day-I- [D/F#] ay-I- [G] ay

(drums in on G - snare pick up - DDG+SnareG+Snare)

 what's a [G] fella to [D] do
'Cause her [Bm] hair was [A] black and her [G] eyes were [D] blue
[Riff A] - And I [G] knew right [D] then........I'd be [G] takin' a [D] whirl

We were [D] halfway there when the rain came down
On a [D] day-I- [D/F#] ay-I- [G] ay
And she [Bm] took me [A] up to her [G] flat down [D] town
Of a [Bm] grand soft [A] day-I-ay-I-a [D] y 
[Riff A] - And I [G] ask you, [D] friend, .......what's a [G] fella to [D] do
'Cause her [Bm] hair was [A] black and her [G] eyes were [D] blue
So I [G] took her [D] hand and I [G] gave her a [D] twirl
And I [Bm] lost my [A] heart to a [G] Galway [D] girl

When [D] I woke up I was all alone...( [D] ay-I- [D/F#] ay-I- [G] ay)
With a [Bm] broken [A] heart and a [G] ticket [D] home
(drums back in)
[Riff A] - And I [G] ask you [D] now, tell me [G] what would you [D] do
If her [Bm] hair was [A] black and her [G] eyes were [D] blue
I've [G] traveled a [D] round I've been all [G] over this [D] world

Nice approach - when you want to imply G chord play melody on E string so by virtue of fretting
the open G rings - then want to imply D, move melody to B string that naturally mutes the G string
and the low D string rings more
With A just play chord down the neck
Also really helps to be in open D tuning

[Violin Line 2 - relative to capo - note you can add trills and hammer ons and pulloffs and sounds great
stick to right string though for each chord]

All around the world, yeah
                        G7+5
(All around the world)
                              Cm7
Seen their brothers fry.
(I seen your brother fry)
                    F7
What's the motive?
           Abmaj7
In that madness.
       G7+5                                    Cm7
Oh, I wish I knew, you made my people cry
(You made my people cry)
        F7
So politicians
 
This time
                                              Abmaj7

We're too young to

I think we've gone too high
(I think we've gone too high)
        F7
Little children
                   Abmaj7
Never said a word, now
                                  G7+5
You know they never said a word
                           Cm7
Still they have to die
 
Well I'm asking why
                 F7
It won't be long
 
No, no, no
                        Abmaj7
Dancing like we do, yeah
                 G7+5
Oh, like we do, now
                         Cm7
To put this sad world right
(I gotta Do it right)
                    F7
So don't you worry
                                        Abmaj7    G7+5

[Bridge]
Cm7
All gone when we drop the bomb
 
Can the politicians reassure?
            F7
Cause here I am
 
Presuming that
 
Nobody wants a war
                 Abmaj7
There's so many people praying
          G7+5
Just to find out if they're staying
      Cm7
But lately stately governments
 
And disillusioned leaders
     F7
So full of empty promises
 
But rarely Do they feed us
             Abmaj7
Put our backs against the wall
     G7+5
Or don't we count at all?
                Cm7
Can you decide
 
Are you mesmerised?
 
Do you know which side you're standing?
              F7
Cause when it falls
 
Gon' take us all
 
Gotta know what we're demanding
 Abmaj7
I never lie
 
Can't you hear the cry
             G7+5
Coming from on high:
 
We're too young to die!
 
 
[Chorus] x8
Cm7          Dbm7
Do-do-do-doo
          Abm7         Bbm7
Da-da-do da-da-doo
