There's a tear in your eye, and I'm wondering why,
For it never should be there at all.
With such [Em] power in your [A] smile, [D] sure a stone you'd [B] beguile,
So there's [E] never a teardrop should [Em] fall.
[A] [D] When your sweet lilting laughter's [Em] like some fairy [A] song,
[D] And your eyes twinkle bright as can [G] be,
[Em] You [D] should laugh all the [E] while, [A] and all other times [B] smile,
[Gbm] And I'll [E] smile, I'll smile [A] for thee.
[D] When eyes are smiling, sure it is [G] like a morning spring,
[Em] In the lilt of [D]
Irish laughter, [B] you [E] can hear the [G] angels sing.
[A]
[D] When Irish hearts are happy, [G] all the world seems [F] bright and [D] gay,
[G] And when [Ab] Irish eyes are [D] small,
[B] sure [E] they steal your [A] heart.
