               C               C               C              G                C                 C             C

There's a tear in your eye and I'm wondering why   For it never should be there at all
                G7                  G7              C                    A7                     D7       D7                    G    G7

With such power in your smile, sure a stone you'd beguile   So there's never a teardrop should fall
                   C              C                   C              G                      C                 C7               F

When your sweet lilting laughter's like some fairy song   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 it's like a morn in Spring
