Poor old Johnny Ray  
                  F                                             C                 G  
Sounded sad upon the radio moved a million hearts in mono  
C  
 Our mothers cried  
  F                    F                           C                G  
Sang along, who'd blame them  
C                                                    Em  
You're grown (you're grown up), so grown (so grown up)**  
F                                                 C        G  
Now I must say more than ever            (come on Eileen)  
C                    Em            F  
Toora-loora-toora-loo-rye-aye  
           C                                  G

Come on Eileen oh, I swear (well he means)  
              Em                         G             A  
at this moment you mean everything  
          D                               A 
With you in that dress, my thoughts (I confess)  
                 Em                 G     A  
verge on dirty, Ah come on Eileen  

  
  
Verse 2:
  
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
