[Verse 1]
[C]Poor old Johnnie [Em]Ray
Sounded [F]sad upon the radio
Moved a [C]million hearts in [G]mono
[C]Our mothers cri[Em]ed
[F]Sang along, who'd blame [C]them?[G]

[Pre-chorus 1]
[C]You've grown (you're grown up)

[F]Now I must say more than ever

eyes sunk in smoke-dried face
They're so re[C]signed to what their [G]fate is

But [C]not us (no never)
But [Em]not us (not ever)
[F]We are far too young and clever

[C]Too-ra-loo-ra
[Em]too- raa- loo- rye- [F]ay
And you'll [C]hum this tune for[G]ever

[Chorus 2]
[D]Come on, Eileen
Oh, I [A]swear (what he means)
Ah, come [Em]on, let's
Take off [G]every[A]thing
That [D]pretty red dress
Ei[A]leen (tell him yes)
Ah, come [Em]on, let's
Ah, come [G]on, Ei[A]leen
That [D]pretty red dress
Ei[A]leen (tell him yes)
Ah, come [Em]on, let's
Ah, come [G]on, Ei[A]leen, [D]please

(Come on, Eileen)
[G]Now you're full grown
And now you have shown
[D]Oh, Ei[A]leen
Said, [D]come on, Eileen
These things they are real and I [F#m]know
How you feel

[F#m]Too- ra- loo- rye- a[G]y

Oh, my [A]thoughts, I confess
Well, they're [Em]dirty
Come [G]on, Ei[A]leen
